Scientists have unlocked the genetic basis underlying the remarkable variation in body size observed in song sparrows, one of North America's most familiar and beloved songbirds. This discovery also provides insights into this species' capacity to adapt to the challenges of climate change. The study used genomic sequencing to successfully pinpoint eight genetic variants, or DNA mutations, largely responsible for the nearly threefold difference in body size observed across the song sparrow range from Mexico.

A Canadian lab has run a chemical process on real spent nuclear fuel "and pulled out 90% of the long-lived danger in 24 hours, the part that forces a burial site to last 100,000 years," notes the blog Autonocio, "with the leftovers meant to fuel a reactor." The standard plan for spent nuclear fuel is to wait it out. You pull the used bundles from a reactor, sit them in... Read more ›

К 1967 году волгоградцы уже успели подзабыть ужасы войны, но однажды эхо Сталинградской битвы их догнало — над мирным городом разнёсся жуткий грохот. Виновницу загадочной канонады нашли быстро: на Мамаевом кургане как раз достроили, ещё не успев официально открыть, памятник «Родина-мать зовёт!» Неужели жителям теперь придётся вечно слушать этот «хеви-метал»?!

На рынке цифровых FPV-видеосистем внезапно появилась куча «новых» брендов — BetaFPV, HGLRC и другие. Вот только стоит вскрыть их модный HD-юнит, и выясняется кое-что любопытное про то, что скрывается под крышкой у всех сразу.Я взял один такой и решил дойти до самого дна: рут-консоль, пароль, аппаратный энкодер и вопрос, который не давал покоя — а можно ли заставить FPV-очки показать то, чего камера никогда не видела?

Агент отчитался: экран настроек готов. Поля редактируются, после сохранения выскакивает тост «Сохранено». Я нажал F5 — все настройки вернулись к дефолтным. Бэкенда под формой не существовало: агент выяснил это в первые минуты и вместо того, чтобы сказать мне, молча положил данные в локальный стейт и нарисовал тост. Ни один чекер из моих прошлых статей этого не поймал — и не мог: деградация пришла со шва между фронтом и бэкендом, единственной... Read more ›

Фотон считают неделимым, поэтому вопрос «что будет, если разрезать фотон пополам?» звучит как бессмыслица. Тем не менее недавняя теоретическая работа физиков из Университета Осло показала, что при определенных условиях ответ на него существует. И он весьма интересный.Если прервать отражение фотона от зеркала прямо во время процесса, вместо двух «половинок» возникает сложное квантовое состояние с суперпозицией и произвольным числом дополнительных квантов света — вплоть до бесконечности в идеализированной мод Read more ›

The mysterious sound known as The Hum has been reported worldwide for decades, yet its source often remains impossible to find. Researchers tested whether people who hear it have exceptional low-frequency hearing or measurable sounds produced inside their ears, but neither explanation fit most participants. The strongest possibility is that many cases involve low-frequency tinnitus, even though the sound seems completely external. Read more ›

Researchers have created cosmic dust from scratch by recreating space-like conditions inside glass tubes. The dust contains complex carbon-rich molecules built from elements essential to life and produces infrared signals similar to real material found in space. By studying these laboratory samples, scientists can explore how organic chemistry unfolds around stars and how comets, asteroids and meteorites may have carried those ingredients to Earth.

A new AI-powered blood test could give people a remarkably early warning of serious heart and circulation problems. Developed by researchers at the University of Hong Kong, CardiOmicScore analyzes thousands of proteins and metabolites to estimate the risk of six major cardiovascular diseases, including heart attack, stroke, heart failure, and atrial fibrillation. Unlike genetic risk scores, which remain fixed throughout life, the system captures biological changes linked to a person’s... Read more ›

Scientists are testing two promising ways to destroy PFAS, the stubborn “forever chemicals” that can accumulate in water and resist normal treatment. One method uses collapsing vapor bubbles to generate extreme heat and reactive molecules, while the other uses cold plasma and rising gas bubbles to pull PFAS to the surface and break them apart.

A protein called SORLA may act as a powerful defense against the toxic tau tangles involved in Alzheimer’s disease. Mice with extra SORLA had less tau accumulation, less brain atrophy, and healthier connections between neurons, while mice without it experienced more severe damage. The findings also revealed a possible drug target that could help control harmful activity in supporting brain cells. Read more ›

A quantum problem once described as impossible for classical computers has now been solved using relatively modest hardware. Researchers used tensor networks to compress the overwhelming wave function created by hundreds of entangled qubits, allowing some calculations to run on a laptop. Their results matched both theoretical predictions and simulations performed with a quantum computer. The method could open new paths for exploring quantum dynamics and materials. Read more ›

Researchers have uncovered a surprising culprit behind sleep loss in Alzheimer’s disease: the brain’s own immune cells. In mice with amyloid plaques, overactive microglia triggered inflammation that kept the brain from getting enough deep, restorative sleep. Temporarily removing most of these cells restored more than two hours of sleep per day, even though the plaques remained unchanged. Read more ›

Oxygen is disappearing from oceans, lakes, rivers, and coastal waters at an alarming rate, threatening aquatic life and weakening the natural processes that help regulate Earth’s climate. Scientists warn that this widespread deoxygenation is closely connected to other major planetary threats, including warming, pollution, biodiversity loss, and ocean acidification. Read more ›

Two elephant-sized South American sauropods were unusually well built for standing on their hind legs. Digital tests showed that their robust femurs handled the enormous forces better than those of larger species, especially while the dinosaurs were young. The upright pose may have helped them reach treetops, frighten predators, or impress potential mates. Read more ›
