Fostering creativity in the scientific research process
How can creativity be implemented in the scientific research process from the outset? By equipping students with creativity tools during their training. This is the message of a prominent group of researchers, which they have now published as a Lette.....»»
Astrophysicists use AI to precisely calculate universe"s "settings"
The standard model of the universe relies on just six numbers. Using a new approach powered by artificial intelligence, researchers at the Flatiron Institute and their colleagues extracted information hidden in the distribution of galaxies to estimat.....»»
Hubble captures unique ultraviolet view of a spectacular star cluster
Roughly 210,000 light-years away, the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) is one of our Milky Way galaxy's closest neighbors. In fact, this small galaxy is one of the Milky Way's "satellite" galaxies, which orbit our home spiral galaxy......»»
New genetic sensor for DNA methylation discovered
DNA methylation is a process in which a methyl group is attached to the cytosine base of the DNA molecule, and is a major way that DNA is epigenetically marked. Epigenetic modifications can act as on–off switches to regulate gene expression and hel.....»»
Novel features of r-process nucleosynthesis shed light on origin of heavy elements
In a study published in The Astrophysical Journal, scientists have proposed the features of the rapid neutron capture process (r-process) nucleosynthesis in a novel scenario: common envelop jet supernovae (CEJSNe). The study sheds new light on the or.....»»
Researchers develop high-entropy non-covalent cyclic peptide glass for smart functional materials

Single nucleosomes tracked in live cells during cell division using super-resolution microscopy
Individual cells divide through a process called mitosis, during which the cell's copied DNA is separated between two resulting daughter cells. Despite recent advances in cell biology, the mechanism by which DNA condenses during mitosis is still poor.....»»
Hubble spots the Tucana Dwarf in the dark
A splatter of stars glows faintly at almost 3 million light-years away in this new image from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. Known as the Tucana Dwarf for lying in the constellation Tucana, this dwarf galaxy contains a loose bundle of aging stars at.....»»
