Scientists are exploring how iron powder could transform renewable energy storage and transportation while giving aging coal power plants a new purpose. Iron powder could help transform old coal power plants into a source of climate-neutral electricity, according to a new study from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). Researchers found that this recyclable fuel […]

Scientists are testing whether one of Einstein’s most fundamental principles holds true throughout the Universe. A neutrino telescope deep in the Mediterranean Sea has put one of Einstein’s fundamental principles to a new test. After analyzing 5,828 atmospheric neutrino candidate events, scientists found no evidence that Lorentz invariance, a cornerstone of relativity, had been violated. […]

A newly identified vulnerability in a cancer-driving protein could pave the way for a different approach to treating prostate cancer. Researchers at the University of Michigan have identified a potential way to target a protein that helps drive prostate cancer but has long been considered beyond the reach of drugs. Their experimental compound, PBITE-1, interfered […]

Some cancer cells survive chemotherapy by blocking their own self-destruct system, but researchers have found a way to switch it back on and kill those cells. Chemotherapy can leave behind cancer cells that have stopped dividing but remain alive and capable of helping a tumor recover. These survivors can draw support from an unexpected source, […]

Subtle differences in brain activity may reveal who is most vulnerable to Alzheimer’s disease and who could remain mentally sharp well into old age. Distinct patterns of brain activity may predict Alzheimer’s disease years before memory problems or hallmark brain changes appear. Stanford Medicine researchers have developed a scoring system that identifies people at greater […]

Scientists have recreated the universe’s first 2 billion years in a record-breaking simulation that could reveal new secrets about the Big Bang and the birth of galaxies. Scientists have recreated the universe’s first 2 billion years in extraordinary detail using one of the world’s most powerful supercomputers. The enormous simulation, called “Lumina,” allows researchers to […]

A solar superstorm appears to have turned a normally sheltered region near Earth into a natural particle accelerator, boosting electrons to energies capable of penetrating some satellite shielding. Protecting spacecraft from radiation means understanding where hazardous particles can appear, especially during severe solar storms. Near Earth, an invisible boundary was thought to keep exceptionally energetic […]
