An unprecedented study of 123 bird species reveals clues about how some birds produce such powerful calls while leaving open the question of why extreme loudness evolved. A bird can unleash a call loud enough to rival a jackhammer, yet measuring that blast in the wild is surprisingly difficult. Sound weakens as it travels, so […]

Scientists Discover Groundbreaking Clues to Tissue Regrowth and “Immortality” in the Ocean
Sea cucumber tissue kept growing for more than three years after removal, surviving in seawater teeming with microbes. Like Thing, the disembodied hand in The Addams Family, a severed piece of sea cucumber tissue kept living without the body it came from, prompting scientists to describe the animal as a “real-life zombie.” Weeks after being […]
Researchers Stretch a Quantum Material and Uncover Two Hidden Superconducting States
Stretching a quantum material revealed two distinct superconducting states, challenging previous assumptions about its behavior and offering new clues to the mechanisms behind superconductivity. Stretching a crystal by less than 1% has allowed scientists to separate two distinct superconducting states in a material that has puzzled physicists for years. The experiment also increased the temperature […]

A New Test Upends a Long-Held Assumption About Dark Matter
A new study puts very different dark matter theories through the same quantitative test of “naturalness.” Some of the most familiar assumptions about dark matter may depend less on the type of dark matter being proposed than on the details of how a particular model produces it. A new analysis by Stefano Profumo, professor of […]
