A sweeping nationwide study has found that U.S. counties located closer to operating nuclear power plants have higher cancer death rates than those farther away. Researchers analyzed data from every nuclear facility and all U.S. counties between 2000 ...

Far beyond Neptune, in the frozen depths of the Kuiper Belt, many ancient objects oddly resemble giant snowmen made of ice and rock. For years, scientists wondered how these delicate two-lobed shapes could form without violent collisions tearing them ...

A Martian volcano once thought to be the result of a single eruption turns out to have a much more complex past. Orbital imaging and mineral data show it developed through multiple eruptive phases, all powered by the same evolving magma system ...

Scientists may have spotted a long-sought triplet superconductor -- a material that can transmit both electricity and electron spin with zero resistance. That ability could dramatically stabilize quantum computers while slashing their energy use. ...

Researchers tested whether generative AI could handle complex medical datasets as well as human experts. In some cases, the AI matched or outperformed teams that had spent months building prediction models. By generating usable analytical code from . ...

For the first time, scientists have mapped Uranus's upper atmosphere in three dimensions, tracking temperatures and charged particles up to 5,000 kilometers above the clouds. Webb's sharp vision revealed glowing auroral bands and unexpected dark ...

Astronomers have uncovered one of the most mysterious galaxies ever found -- a dim, ghostly object called CDG-2 that is almost entirely made of dark matter. Located 300 million light-years away in the Perseus galaxy cluster, it was discovered in an . ...

Qubits, the heart of quantum computers, can change performance in fractions of a second -- but until now, scientists couldn't see it happening. Researchers at NBI have built a real-time monitoring system that tracks these rapid fluctuations about 100 ...

Oxford researchers have found a way to visualize one of the most hidden -- yet critical -- components inside lithium-ion batteries. By tagging polymer binders with traceable markers, they revealed how these tiny materials are distributed at the ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward mimicking nature's tiniest gateways by creating ultra-small pores that rival the dimensions of biological ion channels--just a few atoms wide. The breakthrough opens new possibilities for single-molecule ...
