Nearly Invisible Fish-Killing Pathogens Found in Brazil for the First Time

Pathogens that cause columnaris disease, previously found only in Asia and the United States, were identified in samples from São Paulo, Minas Gerais, and Paraná. A nearly transparent bacterial colony can be easy to miss under a microscope. Yet identifying it matters for fish farms, where columnaris disease can damage the skin and gills of […]

A Single Immune Switch Could Help Drive Widespread Aging

Blocking a single inflammatory receptor protected mice from many of aging’s most damaging effects. Aging may be driven in part by a breakdown in the body’s cleanup system. New research suggests that as specialized immune cells lose their ability to remove worn-out cells, inflammatory debris begins to accumulate, damaging organs throughout the body. In experiments […]

Scientists Discover What Makes Hydrogen Go Quantum

The symmetry of vanadium’s crystal structure acts as a switch for hydrogen’s quantum behavior. Inside a vanadium crystal, hydrogen can travel in two very different ways. It may move as a conventional particle that needs enough energy to jump between locations, or behave like a quantum wave that passes through barriers. Researchers have now identified […]

Scientists Discover Extreme Acceleration Inside a Nuclear Fireball

Simulations reveal some of the strongest accelerations ever produced on Earth, opening new avenues for QCD research. When atomic nuclei smash together at almost the speed of light, their internal matter briefly transforms into quark–gluon plasma, an extremely hot fluid in which quarks and gluons move freely. Scientists have closely examined the plasma’s intense rotation […]
