Study of colorful crayfish challenges theories of bright coloration as adapted phenotype
A pair of biologists, one with West Liberty University, the other with Arizona State University, both in the U.S., has found evidence that challenges theories surrounding bright coloration always functioning as an adapted phenotype......»»
A midsummer red sprite seen from space
NASA astronaut Matthew Dominick photographed red sprites in Earth's upper atmosphere from the International Space Station on June 3, 2024. The bright red flashes are a less understood phenomena associated with powerful lightning events and appear hig.....»»
Island biogeography theory and habitat heterogeneity help explain global patterns of Rhododendron diversity
Mountains are defined by their prominence, steep sides, and significant height above the surrounding regions. They harbor exceptionally high levels of biodiversity and a great number of endemic species worldwide, which are also extremely sensitive to.....»»
Tensor-force effects on nuclear matter in relativistic ab initio theory
Tensor force is a crucial ingredient of the nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction, and has an important impact on the structural and dynamical properties of the nuclear many-body system. Many efforts have been devoted to studying the influence of the tens.....»»
New study reevaluates the fight-or-flight concept in the context of human conflict
Research published in the International Journal of Management Concepts and Philosophy has looked at the concept of "fight-or-flight", a behavioral theory that was first proposed by American physiologist Walter Bradford Cannon in 1915. The idea is als.....»»
Exploring the possibility of probing fundamental spacetime symmetries via gravitational wave memory
As predicted by the theory of general relativity, the passage of gravitational waves can leave a measurable change in the relative positions of objects. This physical phenomenon, known as gravitational wave memory, could potentially be leveraged to s.....»»
MaXXXine review: a bold, absorbing horror adventure
There has never been a movie like A24's MaXXXine, and there likely never will be again......»»
Energy landscape theory sheds light on evolution of foldable proteins
A new study led by Rice University's Peter Wolynes offers new insights into the evolution of foldable proteins. The research was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences......»»
New theory reveals fracture mechanism in soft materials
A new theory has finally deciphered the physical mechanisms of fracture in soft materials. This discovery could soon lead to new, defect-free materials that are more resistant and durable as well as environmentally friendly. The article "Elastic inst.....»»
Clicks Keyboard case: Surprisingly great or gimmicky gadget? [Hands on review]
Earlier this year, Clicks announced their Clicks Keyboard case for the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max. They wanted to bring back the tactility of a physical keyboard to the modern smartphone. As someone who loved using Blackberry Pearl and Bold and the.....»»
New study challenges drought theory for Cahokia exodus
Nine hundred years ago, the Cahokia Mounds settlement just across the Mississippi River from present-day St. Louis bustled with roughly 50,000 people in the metropolitan area, making it one of the largest communities in the world. By 1400, however, t.....»»
If Betelgeuse Explodes, Just How Bright Will It Get?
This supergiant star is in our celestial neighborhood, and it’s threatening to go supernova. What would that look like from down here?.....»»
"Acceleration beats" shine bright light on a novel universal modulation regime in a semiconductor-based laser
Researchers at the Paul-Drude-Institute for Solid State Electronics (PDI) have observed a novel modulation regime characterized by the emergence of previously unseen "acceleration beats" in a modulated semiconductor-based laser......»»
Webb telescope finds most distant galaxy ever observed, again
The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered what appears to be a new record-holder for the most distant known galaxy, a remarkably bright star system that existed just 290 million years after the Big Bang, NASA said Thursday......»»
How to make iPhone notes without bold headings
By default, when you make a new note in the Notes app on your iPhone, you have to be bold. Well, the first line of the note is in bold as it begins writing in a heading style. The second line and beyond uses standard body font size. Often, this i.....»»
X-ray binary Swift J1727.8-1613 has a large relativistic jet, observations show
Using the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) and the Long Baseline Array (LBA), astronomers have observed a black hole low-mass X-ray binary known as Swift J1727.8-1613. As a result, they found that the system hosts a highly extended and bright relativi.....»»
Accelerated approach leads to discovery of a new catalytic promoter on par with decades of study
Addressing climate change demands rethinking of established chemical processes on a timescale of years rather than decades as in traditional R&D cycles. In collaboration with BasCat (UniCat BASF JointLab), a team of researchers from the Theory Depart.....»»
Study shows cuckoos evolve to look like their hosts—and form new species in the process
The theory of coevolution says that when closely interacting species drive evolutionary changes in each other this can lead to speciation—the evolution of new species. But until now, real-world evidence for this has been scarce......»»
Researchers apply quantum computing methods to protein structure prediction
Researchers from Cleveland Clinic and IBM have recently published findings in the Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation that could lay the groundwork for applying quantum computing methods to protein structure prediction......»»
Emotional context in decision-making: Challenging Lewin"s motivational conflicts theory
A recent series of experiments conducted by Ph.D. student Maya Enisman and Dr. Tali Kleiman from the Psychology department at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, challenges the longstanding theory of motivational conflict resolution introduced by Kur.....»»
