A new computational approach uses the real electronic structure of materials to predict a classic quantum effect far more accurately than simplified models. Seven magnetic atoms embedded one at a time in copper have given physicists a new way to test whether computers can predict the behavior of real quantum materials without first reducing them […]
Physicists Tackle a Classic Quantum Problem With a Powerful New Computational Method

Seven magnetic atoms embedded one at a time in copper have given physicists a new way to test whether computers can predict the behavior of real quantum materials without first reducing them […]
NASA’s Chandra Reveals Galaxies Being Torn Apart, Blasted by Black Holes, and Reborn in Stars
Galaxies can be peaceful star factories or cosmic wrecking grounds, torn apart by collisions and blasted by colossal black hole jets. A new collection of 16 images from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory captures galaxies in radically different stages of their lives. The gallery combines decades of Chandra observations with data from NASA’s James Webb and […]
Scientists Discover an Unexpected Connection Between Stem Cells and Childhood Brain Tumors
A blood stem cell molecule revealed how some childhood brain tumor mutations disrupt CoREST and led researchers to existing drugs worth testing further. A molecule used to help blood stem cells multiply has led researchers to an unexpected connection with childhood brain cancer. Scientists at Lund University found that the molecule produces a cellular effect […]

Ozempic’s Active Ingredient Shows Surprising Anti-Aging Effects
The medication provided benefits beyond those achieved through calorie restriction alone. A medication widely used for diabetes and weight loss may also be affecting some of the biology of aging. Semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic, Wegovy, and Rybelsus, is a GLP-1 drug that helps regulate blood sugar and reduce appetite. It improved muscle and […]
Henry VIII’s Lost Castle May Still Be Hiding in Plain Sight
Stone from Henry VIII’s lost Sandown Castle appears to survive within Dover Castle and other buildings across East Kent. Stone from a Tudor fortress that largely disappeared into the sea may still be standing in plain sight at Dover Castle more than a century after the original structure was demolished. New research has linked masonry […]
