With the support of electrical transport and magnetic measurement systems of Steady High Magnetic Field Facility (SHMFF)‚ a research team from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS)‚ Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS)‚ discovered a new superconducting material called (InSe2)xNbSe2‚ which possesses a unique lattice structure. The superconducting transition temperature of this material reaches 11.6 K‚ making it the transition metal sulfide superconductor with the highest transition temperature under ambient pressure.

Japan's space agency said early Saturday that its spacecraft is on the moon‚ but is still "checking its status." More details will be given at a news conference‚ officials said.

Even if global warming were to stop completely‚ the volume of ice in the European Alps would fall by 34% by 2050. If the trend observed over the last 20 years continues at the same rate‚ however‚ almost half the volume of ice will be lost as has been demonstrated by scientists from the University of Lausanne (UNIL‚ Switzerland) in a new international study.

For the past three years‚ Ph.D. candidate Sophie van Lange has been dedicated to one clear goal: producing plastic that is both hard and sustainable. The plastics we use today are either recyclable or strong and hard—not both. Van Lange stepped away from traditional chemical approaches to produce plastic and developed a completely new method to create durable and reusable plastic in a completely new way. The trick? Physical forces.

The atmosphere contains many tiny solid particles. Scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization (MPI-DS) and the University of Göttingen‚ in collaboration with the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in France and the University of Gothenburg‚ Sweden‚ now studied how such non-spherical particles settle in the air.

Researchers from A*STAR's Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS) have found an innovative approach to sequencing single-cell ribonucleic acid (RNA) to study the roles of RNA structure in individual cells. As RNA shapes in individual cells can vary and drive different functions‚ studying the collective RNA shapes in many cells may overlook the individual variability in both RNA structure and function.

A study published in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry reports the discovery of a novel PHD inhibitor for the treatment of anemia.

Recent research has identified MYT1 as a promising new therapeutic target for breast and gynecological cancer and discovered a series of novel‚ potent‚ and highly selective inhibitors specifically targeting MYT1.

A research team led by Prof. Yang Liangbao from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science‚ Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS)‚ has observed the interactions between aromatic molecules and Au surfaces on a single Au nanodimer by Surface-enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS).

The future of global food production is under threat as temperature rises will impact farmers' physical capacity to work‚ a new study has revealed.
