New insight into the internal structure of the proton
While the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is well known for smashing protons together, it is actually the quarks and gluons inside the protons—collectively known as partons—that are really interacting. Thus, in order to predict the rate of a.....»»
NASA"s Chandra finds galaxy cluster that crosses the streams
Astronomers using NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory have found a galaxy cluster has two streams of superheated gas crossing one another. This result shows that crossing the streams may lead to the creation of new structure......»»
Simulated construction of plant-based fish meat with composite structure via 3D printing
To date, about 90% of fish resources worldwide have already reached their sustainable fishery limit. Meanwhile, intensive farming and aquaculture contribute to significant environmental pollution and degradation. To address both the challenges of lim.....»»
Research proposes theory to model interplay of personal and social beliefs
The beliefs we hold develop from a complex dance between our internal and external lives. Our personal-level cognition and our relationships with others work in concert to shape our views of the world and influence how likely we are to update those v.....»»
Study suggests political ideology is associated with differences in brain structure, but less so than previously thought
Conservative voters have slightly larger amygdalas than progressive voters—by about the size of a sesame seed. In a replication study published September 19 in the journal iScience, researchers revisited the idea that progressive and conservative v.....»»
Neutron scientists wake a sleeping giant after nine-month nap and makeover
What's the best way to wake a giant after a long nap? "Very carefully, and with a lot of planning," said a grinning John Galambos. He was the project director for the Proton Power Upgrade project, or PPU, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory until his re.....»»
