Researchers in the Oregon State University College of Engineering have developed new technology for uranium enrichment measurement and trace element detection, vital for nuclear nonproliferation and supporting the development ...
Solving life's great mysteries often requires detective work, using observed outcomes to determine their cause. For instance, nuclear physicists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility ...
The discovery of an unknown organelle inside our cells could open the door to new treatments for devastating inherited diseases.
In a study published in Cell Research, a research team has, for the first time, resolved the high-resolution in situ structure of the central apparatus (CA) within the axoneme of mammalian sperm.
The Apollo astronauts didn't know what they'd find when they explored the surface of the moon, but they certainly didn't expect to see drifts of tiny, bright orange glass beads glistening among the otherwise monochrome piles ...
Earthquakes create ripple effects in Earth's upper atmosphere that can disrupt satellite communications and navigation systems we rely on. Nagoya University scientists and their collaborators have used Japan's extensive network ...
University of Pennsylvania researchers have discovered a right-handed, antiparallel double-helix inside influenza ribonucleoprotein complexes that slides strand-against-strand as the viral polymerase copies RNA, offering ...
Multiple space agencies will send missions to the moon this decade and the next, with plans to establish infrastructure that will allow for many returns. This includes NASA's Lunar Gateway and Artemis Base Camp, the Chinese-Roscosmos ...
Found in everything from kitchen appliances to sustainable energy infrastructure, stainless steels are used extensively due to their excellent corrosion (rusting) resistance. They're an important material in many industries, ...
