'Freak of Nature': Scientists Think Greenland's Ice Is Churning Like Molten Rock - ScienceAlert
Deep inside the Greenland ice sheet, radar images have revealed strange, plume-like structures distorting the layering deposited over eons.
New generation of climate models sheds first light on long-standing Pacific puzzle - Phys.org
Researchers have long been puzzled by the observed cooling of the eastern tropical Pacific and the Southern Ocean accompanying global warming. Existing climate models have failed to capture this pattern. At the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, researcher…
Scientists Just Recreated the Big Bang's First Moments, and It’s More Complex Than We Thought - The Daily Galaxy
Researchers at the LHC have uncovered new insights into the first moments after the Big Bang, offering a glimpse into the properties of the quark-gluon plasma that once filled the universe.
Symbiotic bacteria in planthoppers break record for smallest non-organelle genome ever found - Phys.org
Many insects rely on heritable bacterial endosymbionts for essential nutrients that they cannot get through their diet. A new study, published in Nature Communications, indicates that the genomes of these symbiotic bacteria often shrink over time. Some of the…
Pregnancy complications may have helped wipe out Neanderthals - Phys.org
Neanderthals disappeared from the fossil record approximately 40,000 years ago. Their extinction was a gradual process over thousands of years, and theories as to why include competition with modern humans and rapid climate change. However, there may have bee…
A Superfluid Was Supposed to Flow Forever, But Physicists Found It Suddenly Stopped and That Should Be Impossible - Indian Defence Review
A frictionless superfluid that comes to a halt sounds impossible, yet scientists say they’ve just seen it happen, hinting at a rare supersolid state.
