Researchers discover a way to observe chromatin interaction changes in cancer-associated genetic mutations
Studying the microbiology of any entity, be it a molecule or a dolphin, ideally means putting a spotlight as close to the source material as possible. That can be especially challenging when you're investigating the Rube Goldberg environment of a cel.....»»
Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya-Interaction allows magnon-magnon coupling in hybrid perovskites
An international group of researchers has created a mixed magnon state in an organic hybrid perovskite material by utilizing the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya-Interaction (DMI). The resulting material has potential for processing and storing quantum comput.....»»
Efficient nanostructuring of glass with elliptically polarized pulses
Photoexcitation, and especially photoionization, is one of the most important manifestations of the light-matter interaction in nature, ranging from photosynthesis in plants and vision in biology to photography and laser processing of materials. It i.....»»
Revealing the pattern between frontal polymerization and natural convection
A self-propagating chemical reaction can transform a liquid monomer into a solid polymer, and the interaction between the propagating front and the reaction's natural convection leads to patterns in the resulting solid polymeric material. New Univers.....»»

Study uncovers the fundamental mechanisms underlying the formation of polarons in 2D atomic crystals
Polarons are localized quasiparticles that result from the interaction between fermionic particles and bosonic fields. Specifically, polarons are formed when individual electrons in crystals distort their surrounding atomic lattice, producing composi.....»»
Study unveils the mechanism behind the generation of large tsunamis off the Northwest Mexican coast
The Northwest Pacific coast of Mexico is an area struck by large earthquakes and tsunamis as a result of the interaction of two tectonic plates. However, to date, the structure of the continental margin and, therefore, the causes behind the generatio.....»»

Researchers developed an educational game that uses augmented reality and tangible interaction to teach STEM to young students. They recently revealed their research findings on the usage and efficiency of the game to promote the learning of chemistr.....»»
Researchers release eight-year dataset to reveal lake-atmosphere interaction over source region of the Yellow River
Lakes on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) play a critical role in the regional water cycle, weather, and climate. However, the characteristics of the lake-atmosphere interaction over the high-altitude lakes are still unclear......»»
Tart, sour, or sweet? Researchers create hard cider lexicon for accurate, shared descriptions
Citrus, caramelized sugar, vinegary, puckering, sour, and solvent. These are just a handful of the 33 terms that researchers in the Virginia Tech College of Agriculture and Life Sciences found after conducting a sensory descriptive analysis of hard c.....»»
Bees" pesticide risk found to be species- and landscape-dependent
In a new study, ecologists have shown that bees' pesticide exposure depends upon their interaction with the environment, meaning different species face different risks in any given environment......»»
Framework structure with nanoscopic insulation enables components for soft robotics and flexible electronics
Classical robots, such as those used for manufacturing, can lift heavy loads and repeat automated processes precisely. But they are too rigid and bulky for delicate work and interaction with humans. The research field of soft robotics works on the de.....»»
