Researchers develop incredible new material from silver tungstate that has antifungal and antitumor properties
An international team of researchers has developed a new material from silver tungstate that can eliminate fungi and protect against cancer. In a study published in the journal Science Advances, the researchers exposed silver tungstate to radiation and found that doing so increased the material’s antifungal and anticancer properties. Irradiated silver tungstate is anti-fungal, anti-cancer Silver tungstate is an inorganic compound that […]

“Important theoretical finding” shows how breaks in temporal symmetry result in molecules that can encode data from Weyl semimetals
A study published in Scientific Reports shows that breaks in temporal symmetry can produce molecules in materials called Weyl semimetals that can encode data. Researchers from Brazil and Iceland said that the theoretical finding can contribute to the development of quantum computing and spintronics – an emerging technology that uses electron spin instead of electron charge for faster, more efficient […]

Volcanic eruption triggered worst mass extinction in Earth’s history – study
An international team of researchers has found further evidence that volcanic eruptions were responsible for the largest mass extinction event in history. In a study published in the journal Geology, the researchers detailed their discovery of coronene, a type of hydrocarbon that can be produced by an intense volcanic eruption, in sedimentary rocks. Link of coronene to volcanic eruptions […]

Scientists say the best place for life on Mars is underground
Researchers from Italy have discovered strong evidence of hypersaline lakes beneath the south pole of Mars, raising the possibility that Martian life may be swimming in briny waters. In their study, published in Nature Astronomy, the researchers detected a few anomalous areas beneath the Martian south pole using the radar instrument aboard the European Space Agency‘s Mars Express orbiter. Analysis of the data […]

Astronomers accidentally stumble upon the footprints of a “massive monster galaxy”
A sky survey in Chile has led to the unexpected discovery of a “massive monster galaxy” previously unknown to scientists. In a paper published in the Astrophysical Journal, researchers led by University of Arizona astronomer Christina Williams said that such massive galaxies had never been seen before, hinting that a new population of galaxies is waiting to be discovered. Accidental discovery […]

Spacefaring extremophile bacteria still alive after a full year in space, says researchers
A tough species of microbes has survived a full year in the harsh environment of outer space, bearing the full brunt of cosmic radiation on the exterior of the International Space Station (ISS) without any sort of protection. In an experiment detailed in the journal Microbiome, Japanese and European researchers left cells of the bacteria Deinococcus radiodurans outside the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency’s […]

New diesel engine boasts low consumption and high efficiency, decreasing emissions of contaminating particles by 80%
European researchers have developed an improved diesel engine that’s more eco-friendly and efficient than current models, paving the way for greener and fuel-efficient vehicles. During a project meeting held in Austria, the researchers said that the new engine uses less fuel and emits 80 percent fewer contaminating particles than the current legal limits. Developing eco-friendly, efficient diesel engine The DiePeR project was […]

Under the skin: humans develop extra muscles which vanish before birth, scientists say
Researchers from Howard University and the Vision Institute in Paris found that humans develop extra muscles in their hands and feet in the womb that later disappear before birth. The researchers examined images showing the initial stages of human muscle development and found that extra muscular tissues were growing weeks after conception. These tissues, as reported by the […]

Study on Mars suggests water has been present on rocky planets from the start
A recent study published in the journal Science Advances suggests that water may have emerged naturally on rocky planets instead of originating from asteroids or comets. Researchers from France, Denmark and Japan studied a meteorite from Mars nearly as old as the solar system. Based on the rock fragments that constitute the meteorite, the researchers found that water, […]

Weird Nature and stormquakes: Hurricanes or strong storms can trigger seismic events in nearby oceans, report scientists
A study published in the Geophysical Research Letters suggests that hurricanes or even just really strong storms can trigger seismic events called “stormquakes” in the nearby ocean. Researchers from Florida State University (FSU), the University of California, San Diego and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts analyzed more than a decade of seismic and oceanographic records. They […]
