Cell communication: Wnt signaling interpreted differently depending on receiving cell and signal duration
The same message can be interpreted differently by different individuals; also true among cells. This is shown by researchers at Linköping University who studied cell communication through Wnt signaling, which plays a decisive role in embryo develop.....»»
Dynamical dark energy might explain strange 21-cm signal
Dark energy may evolve in time, and it may even connect through a new force of nature with dark matter. A researcher believes that we may have already seen evidence for this. Their findings have been reported on the preprint server arXiv......»»
Acoustics researchers decompose sound accurately into its three basic components
Researchers have been looking for ways to decompose sound into its basic ingredients for more than 200 years. In the 1820s, French scientist Joseph Fourier proposed that any signal, including sounds, can be built using a sufficient number of sine wav.....»»
Invasive non-native species cost UK economy an estimated £4bn a year, study reveals
CABI scientists have carried out a study which reveals invasive non-native species (INNS)—such as the aquatic water weeds floating pennywort and Japanese knotweed as well as signal crayfish—cost the UK economy an estimated £4bn a year......»»
Astronomers use dead stars to measure gravitational waves produced by ancient black holes
An international team of astronomers has detected a faint signal of gravitational waves reverberating through the universe. By using dead stars as a giant network of gravitational wave detectors, the collaboration—called NANOGrav—was able to meas.....»»
