Hidden oceans on icy moons may be boiling beneath the surface

The outer planets are surrounded by dozens of moons locked in thick shells of ice. Some of these frozen worlds, including Saturn’s moon Enceladus, are believed to contain vast oceans of liquid water trapped between their icy crust and rocky interiors. Because liquid water is essential for life as we…

A tiny twist creates giant magnetic skyrmions in 2D crystals

In the fast moving field of two dimensional materials, even a slight rotational shift between layers can dramatically change how a material behaves. Scientists previously discovered that when atom thin crystals are stacked with a small angular mismatch, their electronic properties can transform. This approach, known as moiré engineering, has…

Why tipping keeps rising and may not improve service

Why do people leave tips? According to new research, the answer comes down to two main motivations. Some customers tip to genuinely reward good service. Others tip because they feel pressure to follow social norms. The difference matters. Customers who truly value the service often leave more than the customary…

Scientists just turned light into a remote control for crystals

Scientists at NYU have developed a way to use light to guide how microscopic particles arrange themselves into crystals. The work, reported in the Cell Press journal Chem, describes a straightforward and reversible technique for building crystals that could support the creation of a new class of responsive, adaptable materials.…

Scientists discover the genetic switch that keeps your organs healthy

Scientists at the University of Liège have identified a crucial genetic regulator that allows macrophages to fully mature and help maintain organ health. This regulator, called MafB, acts as a “molecular switch” that turns specific genes on or off at precise moments and in specific cells. By controlling this genetic…

New crystal seeding method boosts perovskite solar cell efficiency to 23%

Conventional perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are structured with the electron transport layer underneath the perovskite light absorbing layer and the hole transport layer on top. Although this layout has delivered strong lab performance, it faces obstacles when scaled for large area manufacturing and long term stability. Inverted PSCs swap the…

In Iran è giallo su Ahmadinejad, Trump: ‘Affondate nove navi iraniane. Parlerò con i nuovi leader’ – Notizie – Ansa.it

IL PUNTO L’eliminazione di Ali Khamenei non ha concluso l’operazione militare congiunta Israele-Stati Uniti contro l’Iran, scattata all’alba di sabato. Nuove ondate di raid hanno continuato ad abbattersi sul Paese, colpendo le infrastrutture missilistiche ed altre figure chiave dell’establishment. I Pasdaran, nonostante gli avvertimenti della Casa Bianca, hanno lanciato quella…

Massive asteroid impact 6.3 million years ago left giant glass field in Brazil

Scientists have identified Brazil’s first known field of tektites, the glassy material created when an asteroid or other extraterrestrial object strikes Earth with extreme force. These newly recognized specimens, called geraisites after the state of Minas Gerais where they were first found, form a previously unknown strewn field. The discovery…
