Researchers discovered that when atoms interact and remain entangled with light, they emit stronger, more coordinated bursts of energy. This breakthrough could lead to faster, more efficient quantum devices and improved control over light-matter systems. Collective Light Behavior in Cavity Systems Light–matter systems bring many emitters (e.g., atoms) into a shared optical mode inside a […]

A large, long-term study of more than 96,000 adults reveals that the way we eat as we age can play a major role in whether we develop chronic constipation. Researchers found that Mediterranean and plant-based diets were linked to a noticeably lower risk, even though the benefits were not tied to fiber as many people […]

A new analysis finds that a low-fat vegan diet leads to greater weight loss than the Mediterranean diet, even when it includes foods labeled “unhealthful” in plant-based diet scoring systems. Eating a vegan diet leads people to consume a wider range of plant-based foods, including items labeled as “unhealthy” in the plant-based diet index, and […]

Scientists have mapped the atomic interactions that make nanoscale catalysts so effective at converting propane into propylene. The discovery highlights a stabilizing oxide pattern that could guide improved industrial production methods. Propane’s Transformation Into Propylene Many everyday goods, including plastic squeeze bottles and outdoor furniture, depend on a chemical process that converts propane into propylene. […]

UC Davis scientists created wheat that can partially fertilize itself by releasing a chemical that activates nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the soil. The modified plants use this microbial help to tap atmospheric nitrogen, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers. This breakthrough could cut pollution, lower farm expenses, and improve crop growth in nutrient-poor regions. It may […]

A culinary favorite is becoming a forest threat, reducing native fungi and spreading rapidly. The golden oyster mushroom, known for its bright yellow caps, is widely sold in grow-your-own kits and in grocery stores, farmers’ markets, and gourmet shops. A University of Florida researcher now cautions that this popular mushroom is spreading beyond cultivation and […]

Scientists uncover a basic principle that shows how higher nutrient levels change the pace of cell growth, revealing a universal rule that applies to microbial growth. A research group that includes a scientist from the Earth-Life Science Institute (ELSI) at Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan, has uncovered a new biological principle that mathematically describes why […]

Key Points Revealing Theia’s composition: A new study in Science identifies the likely chemical makeup of Theia, the ancient planetary body that struck early Earth. Clues to its birthplace: Theia’s reconstructed composition points to an origin in the inner Solar System, probably forming even closer to the Sun than Earth. Apollo samples provide evidence: Researchers […]
