Stereo solar campaign links Inouye and Solar Orbiter data on tiny 'campfires'
Sunday, 07 December 2025 04:02
The Sun is not just a glowing ball in the sky. From large magnetic loops hundreds of times larger than Earth, to tiny features that blink in and out of existence, our home star is far more dynamic than most of us realize. According to Krzysztof Barczynski, a solar physicist who worked on this research while at ETH Zurich and is now at PMOD/WRC in Davos, "the Sun is an incredibly active and dynam New mass measurements refine X ray burst reaction flow
Sunday, 07 December 2025 04:02
A team at the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has directly measured the masses of the short lived nuclei phosphorus-26 and sulfur-27, providing data needed to determine a key nuclear reaction rate in Type I X ray bursts on neutron stars.
The study reports high precision mass measurements of these proton rich nuclei, which are important for modeling the rapid Gravitational wave signals reveal dark matter around black holes
Sunday, 07 December 2025 04:02
A research team at the University of Amsterdam has developed a new general-relativistic model that shows how gravitational waves from black holes can be used to reveal dark matter and constrain its properties. The model follows in detail how a massive black hole interacts with its surrounding matter and how this interaction alters the emitted gravitational-wave signal.
Rodrigo Vicente, The Bio-hybrid robots turn food waste into functional machines

EPFL scientists have integrated discarded crustacean shells into robotic devices, leveraging the strength and flexibility of natural materials for robotic applications.
Although many roboticists today turn to nature to inspire their designs, even bioinspired robots are usually fabricated from non-biological materials like metal, plastic and composites. But a new experimental robotic manipu Digital twin successfully launched and deployed into space
Sunday, 07 December 2025 04:02
A dynamic digital twin designed by UC Davis researchers was launched into Earth's orbit last week aboard a SpaceX rocket. The innovation, which will model the current condition and predict the future condition of the spacecraft's power system, was carried by a Proteus Space satellite and is the first of its kind to be sent into space.
The rocket was launched Nov. 28 from Vandenberg Space F NASA prepares long duration Antarctic balloon campaign to probe neutrinos and dark matter
Sunday, 07 December 2025 04:02
NASA's Scientific Balloon Program is returning to Antarctica for a new long-duration campaign featuring two zero-pressure balloon launches from a site near the U.S. National Science Foundation's McMurdo Station on the Ross Ice Shelf. The flights will carry the Payload for Ultrahigh Energy Observations (PUEO) and the General AntiParticle Spectrometer (GAPS), both focused on high-energy astrophysi The Dos and Don'ts You Need to Keep in Mind When Playing Online Casino Games

Going from brick-and-mortar gambling halls to digital apps didn't just tweak the industry; it completely flipped it on its head. We used to have to get dressed up, drive out, and physically walk onto a casino floor to place a wager. SpaceX gets approval to build Starship launch complex at Cape Canaveral
