A new study has cast doubt on claims that Homo naledi, a small-brained hominin dating to between 335-241,000 years ago, deliberately buried their dead and produced rock art in Rising Star Cave, South Africa.
阅读全文Similar to human teenagers, teenage galaxies are awkward, experience growth spurts and enjoy heavy metal -- nickel, that is.
阅读全文A compound -- one of 27 million screened in a library of potential new drugs -- reversed four types of chronic pain in animal studies, according to new research led by NYU College of Dentistry's Pain Research Center and published in the Proceedings o
阅读全文Researchers at Delft University of Technology, led by assistant professor Richard Norte, have unveiled a remarkable new material with potential to impact the world of material science: amorphous silicon carbide (a-SiC). Beyond its exceptional strength, th
阅读全文Quantum-based systems promise faster computing and stronger encryption for computation and communication systems. These systems can be built on fiber networks involving interconnected nodes which consist of qubits and single-photon generators that create
阅读全文Researchers from Lancaster University in the UK have discovered how superfluid helium 3He would feel if you could put your hand into it.
阅读全文The discharge of organic effluents -- biodegradable waste materials from plants and animals -- into freshwater bodies is a significant environmental concern, affecting the health and sustainability of these aquatic ecosystems. However, the methods current
阅读全文Compact genetic testing device created for Covid-19 could be used to detect a range of pathogens, or conditions including cancer.
阅读全文The heat given off by car engines warms up underground car parks in such a way that the heat passes through the ground into the groundwater. In Berlin alone, enough energy is transferred to the groundwater to supply 14,660 households with heat. This findi
阅读全文'Hard-to-decarbonize' (HtD) houses are responsible for over a quarter of all direct housing emissions -- a major obstacle to achieving net zero -- but are rarely identified or targeted for improvement.
阅读全文Researchers led by Professor KANG Kisuk of the Center for Nanoparticle Research within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), have announced a major breakthrough in the field of next-generation solid-state batteries. It is believed that their new findings
阅读全文A team of researchers from UCLA has unveiled a first-of-its-kind stable and fully solid-state thermal transistor that uses an electric field to control a semiconductor device's heat movement.
