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 […]

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 […]

Kelvin–Helmholtz waves may help the solar wind strip atmospheric particles from Mars. Mars is continually exposed to a stream of charged particles racing outward from the Sun. Earth’s global magnetic field deflects much of this solar wind, but Mars lacks a comparable shield. The flow can therefore strike the planet’s upper atmosphere directly and gradually […]

A daily multivitamin may offer older adults a simple way to support everyday function and independence. Maintaining the ability to handle ordinary tasks without severe symptoms is an important part of quality of life in later years. New research suggests that taking a daily multivitamin may help older adults preserve that everyday level of functioning. […]

SuperAgers may keep their memories sharp not because they dodged Alzheimer’s genes, but because their brains possess hidden defenses scientists are only beginning to uncover. Some people reach their 80s and 90s with memory abilities that rival, or even surpass, those of adults decades younger. Known as SuperAgers, these exceptional individuals are helping scientists investigate […]

Every deliberate sniff may activate a brain system that has survived millions of years of evolution. A mouse searching for food may sniff several times each second. A person checking whether a cantaloupe is ripe usually leans in for one slow, deliberate breath. Those behaviors look completely different, but new research suggests the brain may […]
