Fermi Arcs in an antiferromagnet detected at BESSY II
An international cooperation has analyzed samples of NdBi crystals, which display interesting magnetic properties. In their experiments including measurements at BESSY II, they could find evidence for so called Fermi arcs in the antiferromagnetic sta.....»»
For the first time, astronomers have detected a radio signal from the massive explosion of a dying white dwarf
When stars like our sun die, they tend to go out with a whimper and not a bang—unless they happen to be part of a binary (two) star system that could give rise to a supernova explosion......»»
Atypical "mad cow disease" case detected in US
US health officials have detected an atypical case of "mad cow disease" in a beef cow at a slaughter plant in the state of South Carolina, they announced Friday......»»
Researchers demonstrate electrical creation and control of antiferromagnetic vortices
A new study has shown for the first time how electrical creation and control of magnetic vortices in an antiferromagnet can be achieved, a discovery that will increase the data storage capacity and speed of next generation devices......»»
Nebulon unveils threat detection solution for cryptographic ransomware
Nebulon announced TripLine, a new threat detection service designed to alert customers when a cryptographic ransomware attack has been detected, as well as the precise location and point-in-time the attack occurred. The company also announced smartDe.....»»
Study reveals presence of Hunga Tonga eruption aerosols in Northern Hemisphere stratospheric westerlies
An international team led by researchers from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has detected aerosols from the Hunga Tonga eruption in the Northern Hemisphere stratospheric westerlies for the first time......»»

New variable star detected by Chinese astronomers
Using the Nanshan One-meter Wide-field Telescope (NOWT), astronomers from China have performed a photometric survey of the old open cluster NGC 188. In result, they identified many variable stars, one of which was detected for the first time. The fin.....»»
Astronomers find distant gas clouds with leftovers of the first stars
Using ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT), researchers have found, for the first time, the fingerprints left by the explosion of the first stars in the universe. They detected three distant gas clouds whose chemical composition matches what we expect fr.....»»
Spin.AI partners with Google to reduce the risk of Chrome extensions for SecOps teams
Spin.AI has partnered with Google to integrate its new Chrome Extension Risk Assessment in Chrome Browser Cloud Management. This free tool gives administrators increased visibility into browser extensions detected across the Chrome ecosystem and allo.....»»
Using plasma against toxic PFAS chemicals
Harmful PFAS chemicals can now be detected in many soils and bodies of water. Removing them using conventional filter techniques is costly and almost infeasible. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Interfacial Engineering and Biotechnology IG.....»»
Double radio relic and odd radio circle discovered with MeerKAT
During observations of the merging galaxy cluster PSZ2 G277.93+12.34 with the MeerKAT radio telescope, an international team of astronomers have serendipitously detected a double radio relic and an odd radio circle. The discovery was detailed in a pa.....»»
JWST"s MIRI instrument is having problems again
Last week, NASA shared a blog post saying they detected a sensor glitch associated with the James Webb Space Telescope's Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). For some reason, the sensor for MIRI's Medium Resolution Spectroscopy (MRS) is receiving less lig.....»»
Ground wide angle camera array detects prompt optical emission of gamma-ray burst
Researchers led by Dr. Xin Liping from the Space-based Multi-band Astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) research team, National Astronomical Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (NAOC), have detected the prompt optical emission and.....»»
PaperCut vulnerabilities leveraged by Clop, LockBit ransomware affiliates
Clop and LockBit ransomware affiliates are behind the recent attacks exploiting vulnerabilities in PaperCut application servers, according to Microsoft and Trend Micro researchers. The detected campaings “Microsoft is attributing the recently r.....»»
No WIMPS! Heavy particles don’t explain gravitational lensing oddities
Detailed look at a lensed galaxy favors lighter particles called axions. Enlarge / The red arcs at the right of center are background galaxies distorted by gravitational lensing. The number, location, and degree of distortion of.....»»
Gravitational lensing may point to lighter dark matter candidate

Lossless light: Revisiting Raman gain and amplification in a silicon photonic platform
Stars emit light that travels through empty space without significant attenuation. The visual signal is essentially lossless until detected. After many years and billions of kilometers, starlight-photons may eventually encounter the earth's atmospher.....»»
G 68-34 is an M-dwarf eclipsing binary, observations find
Using the Tillinghast Reflector Echelle Spectrograph (TRES) and the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), astronomers from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA) have detected an M-dwarf companion to a nearby M-dwarf star desig.....»»
Cancer-causing chemicals detected in toys and headphones
Cancer-causing chlorinated paraffins are still used in a wide range of everyday products sold in North America, despite their known health harm and being banned in Canada for a decade, according to a new study in Environmental Science: Processes & Im.....»»
Pesticides detected in pollen and nectar may pose a long-term hazard for pollinators
