New method predicts iron ore behavior for lower-carbon steelmaking - Reducing carbon dioxide emissions from steelmaking requires more efficient ways to turn iron ore into iron. While hydrogen-based technologies offer a promising path toward lower-carbon steel production, conventional blast ...
Spreading Life to Bleached Coral - Coral bleaching is a major problem for ocean ecosystems as the ocean gets warmer. Researchers at Stanford have found a new method for regenerating bleached corals. Scientists working on coral âŚread more
Switch tracks: Rewiring rolling stock for a new era - Fast-growing markets in Asia are difficult for global rail OEMs to access. Value could shift from new builds toward servicing and renewalsâwhile OEMs prepare for future opportunities.
US bans use of China's DeepSeek by government agencies - The U.S. government on Monday ordered its agencies to stop using artificial intelligence tools from Chinese startup DeepSeek, as the countries race for dominance in the fast-moving sector.
Birduino Plays Bird Calls on Demand with NFC-enabled Cards - All [Hannah Robertson]âs Birduino needs is for one to tap an NFC-enabled card to the reader, and the device plays one of the vocalizations associated with the bird shown on âŚread more
Not Getting Enough Daylight Could Be Linked to a Higher Risk of Dementia - Researchers found that insufficient exposure to bright daytime light may be a stronger predictor of dementia than several established risk factors. Greater exposure to bright light during the day may be associated with a lower risk of developing dementia, according to research involving nearly 88,000...
Scientists May Have Solved a Billion-Year-Old Mystery About DNAâs Evolution - On an early Earth exposed to intense ultraviolet radiation, the evolution of DNA may have depended on an unexpected molecular advantage. Early life on Earth faced intense ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun without the protection of an ozone layer. Yet DNA came to rely on thymine, a chemical building...
Octopus-inspired patch grips skin and reveals pulse through shifting colors - It looks like a small, transparent patch with a rainbow on its surfaceâor for those old enough to remember, the back of a CD. The patch is the first of its kind in the world and, when combined with an ordinary smartphone ...
Scientists Discover Exercise Changes the Body in Ways We Never Fully Understood - Salk Institute researchers have created a molecular map of how healthy mice respond to exercise, offering clues that could help improve performance and reduce injury risk. Exercise can help the body resist disease and dysfunction and recover from illness. Studies have also linked it to more than 30 percent...
Precision Timing Special Report - Choose timing with confidence: compare crystals, oscillators, RTCs, MEMS, and atomic references for reliable designsâdownload the guide. The post Precision Timing Special Report appeared first on EE Times .
A 1,000-Year-Old DNA Mystery Links Hawaii and Easter Island and Reveals Hidden Genetic Dangers - The DNA that traces Hawaiiâs settlement also points to overlooked disease risks, with some globally rare variants common enough among Eastern Polynesians to warrant screening. Hawaii and Easter Island lie about 7,000 kilometers (4,350 miles) apart, roughly the distance from San Francisco to Lima, Peru....
Stacking-specific two-dimensional In 2 Se 3 for ferroelectric homojunctions - Stacking-controllable 2D In 2 Se 3 grown by chemical vapour deposition reveals a strong dependence of ferroelectricity on stacking order. A 2H/3R homojunction memristor achieves an on/off ratio one order of magnitude higher than that of pure-phase devices, offering opportunities for advanced ferroelectric...
Scientists Create âSuper Iceâ Thatâs 10 Times Stronger and Rivals Concrete in Strength - A new form of reinforced ice could offer an unconventional building material for extreme polar environments, although questions about its long-term durability remain. Scientists have developed a new form of ice that approaches the compressive strength of conventional concrete while resisting the sudden...
Elon Musk unveils Tesla's 'flying' car - Tesla CEO Elon Musk unveiled what he described as a "flying" car, equipped with thrusters, during a livestreamed event at his SpaceX rocket company's facility on Thursday.
Scientists Discover a Powerful New Weapon Against a Dangerous Gut Infection - The promise of an experimental treatment for C. difficile gut infections lies partly in the bacteria it leaves alive, according to early laboratory and mouse research. Broad-spectrum antibiotics can disrupt the gutâs microbial community, allowing a bacterium already living there to multiply unchecked....
