X-ray diffraction enables measurement of in-situ ablation depth in aluminum
When laser energy is deposited in a target material, numerous complex processes take place at length and time scales that are too small to visually observe. To study and ultimately fine-tune such processes, researchers look to computer modeling. Howe.....»»
Research on discrimination: Access to professional networks is crucial
Half of all jobs in the U.S. are found through recommendations in informal networks, such as LinkedIn. High-paying jobs are usually filled by influential people with inside knowledge. Groups that are underrepresented on the job market have less acces.....»»
Fuji apple study finds genetic mechanisms behind high-yield trees
Apples rank among the world's most valuable fruit crops, with production spanning more than 100 countries. Some apple trees naturally develop into what farmers call "spur-type" varieties—compact trees that are more productive and easier to maintain.....»»
Scalable production of high-quality organoids: Innovative platform utilizes 3D engineered nanofiber membrane

Wood ants that actively combat plant diseases could be used in organic apple orchards
The small industrious wood ant can do more than just build high nests in spruce forests. A newly published article in the journal Microbial Ecology reveals that ants combat a range of plant diseases, including those affecting apples. At the same time.....»»
M4 Mac minis in a computing cluster is incredibly cool, but not hugely effective
There is a way to use a collection of M4 Mac minis in a cluster, but the benefits only really exist when you use high-end Macs.A cluster of M4 Mac minis - Image credit: Alex Ziskind/YouTubeWhile most people think of having a more powerful computer me.....»»
Researchers create high-resistant starch rice by impaired amylopectin synthesis
Rice is one of the most important staple crops and an excellent starch-provider. Resistant starch (RS) has shown beneficial effects on diabetes, weight management and inflammatory bowel disease......»»
New maps show high-risk zones for whale-ship collisions—vessel speed limits and rerouting can reduce the toll
Imagine you are a blue whale swimming up the California coast, as you do every spring. You are searching for krill in the Santa Barbara Channel, a zone that teems with fish, kelp forests, seagrass beds and other undersea life, but also vibrates with.....»»
The solar fire up close: Newly analyzed data offers first high-resolution view of the entire solar disk
The entire solar disk in unprecedented detail—this is shown by images of the visible surface of the sun, which researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research have now created from 25 individual images taken by the ESA space probe.....»»
Nano-patterned copper oxide sensor provides rapid ultra-low hydrogen detection
Hydrogen is becoming an increasingly popular choice as we shift towards cleaner energy. It can be burned like traditional fuels, producing only water as a byproduct, and can generate electricity when used in fuel cells. However, as hydrogen productio.....»»
