Quantum dynamics show 'memory' depends on whether states or observables evolve - Phys.org
An international group of researchers have investigated the role of memory in quantum systems and dynamics. Their findings show that a quantum process can appear memoryless from one perspective while retaining memory from another. The discovery opens new rese…
This New Cancer Breakthrough Sounds Impossible—Until You Hear How It Works - inc.com
Using bacteria to attack cancer cells is not a new idea, but the Waterloo researchers have engineered a solution to one of the biggest challenges inherent to the method.
Scientists Drill 523 Meters Through Antarctic Ice, Uncovering 23 Million Years of Climate Secrets - SciTechDaily
Deep beneath Antarctica’s ice, scientists have uncovered a geological archive that could reshape predictions of future sea-level rise.
Large land predators were hunting big plant-eaters more than 280 million years ago, study finds - Phys.org
A study examining fossil evidence shows that large land predators were already hunting big plant-eating animals more than 280 million years ago. University of Toronto Mississauga researchers Jordan M. Young, Tea Maho, and Robert Reisz studied bite marks on th…
Dense, dark forests in Europe are a modern phenomenon - Phys.org
For over 20 million years, the landscape of Europe has been a tree-rich mosaic of grasslands, scrubs and more or less open woodlands with an abundance of wildflowers. This is the conclusion of a new and comprehensive study of Europe’s vegetation history—a stu…
First 3D reconstruction of the face of 'Little Foot' completed - Phys.org
Identified as the most complete Australopithecus fossil discovered to date, “Little Foot” was buried in sediments whose movement and weight caused fractures and deformations, making analysis of its skull—and more particularly its face—difficult. This anatomic…
