Scientists at Johns Hopkins may be closing in on dark matter's elusive trail, uncovering a mysterious gamma ray glow at the heart of our galaxy that could signal unseen matter colliding -- or perhaps the frantic spin of dying stars. Using advanced .. ...

A collaboration between the University of Michigan and AFRL has resulted in 3D-printed metamaterials that can block vibrations using complex geometries. Inspired by nature and theoretical physics, these "kagome tubes" demonstrate how geometry can ...

Researchers have discovered chemical fingerprints of Earth's earliest incarnation, preserved in ancient mantle rocks. A unique imbalance in potassium isotopes points to remnants of "proto Earth" material that survived the planet's violent formation. ...

Researchers discovered how to stabilize a high-performance sodium compound, giving sodium-based solid-state batteries the power and stability they've long lacked. The new material conducts ions far more efficiently and supports thicker, energy-dense ...

Scientists from NASA and Chalmers University have discovered that incompatible substances can mix on Titan's icy surface, breaking the "like dissolves like" rule of chemistry. Under ultra-cold conditions, hydrogen cyanide can form stable crystals ...

For the first time, scientists observed a black hole tearing apart a star far from its galaxy's center, producing the fastest-changing radio signals ever recorded. The event, AT 2024tvd, revealed delayed bursts of energy months after the initial ...

Ryugu's samples reveal that water activity on asteroids lasted far longer than scientists thought, possibly reshaping theories of how Earth gained its oceans. A billion-year-old impact may have melted ancient ice, keeping asteroids wet and ...

Researchers discovered a new field of ancient tektites in South Australia, revealing a long-forgotten asteroid impact. These 11-million-year-old glass fragments differ chemically and geographically from other known tektites. Although the crater ...

Auburn scientists have designed new materials that manipulate free electrons to unlock groundbreaking applications. These "Surface Immobilized Electrides" could power future quantum computers or transform chemical manufacturing. Stable, tunable, and ...

CO ice blocks on Mars may dig gullies as they slide and sublimate in the thin atmosphere. In lab experiments, scientists recreated these eerie, worm-like movements under Martian conditions. The findings help explain unusual dune formations and deepen ...
