Femtosecond lasers push the limits of nanostructures for thermal engineering

Femtosecond lasers push the limits of nanostructures for thermal engineering

Femtosecond laser-induced periodic surface structures can be used to control thermal conductivity in thin film solids, report researchers from Japan. Their innovative method, which leverages high-speed laser ablation, produces parallel nanoscale grooves with unprecedented throughput that is 1,000 times stronger than conventional approaches, strategically altering phonon scattering in the material.

Genomic study reveals how vascular plants adapt to aquatic environments

Genomic study reveals how vascular plants adapt to aquatic environments

Aquatic plants are specialized evolutionary groups adapted to life in water. They play critical roles as food and medicinal supplies (e.g., lotus root and foxnut) and industrial raw materials (e.g., reeds), as well as in ecological restoration. While most aquatic lineages have independently evolved from terrestrial ancestors, the genomic dynamics underlying this adaptation remain largely unexplored.

Atomic Josephson contacts: How Bose-Einstein condensates replicate Shapiro steps

Atomic Josephson contacts: How Bose-Einstein condensates replicate Shapiro steps

The microscopic processes taking place in superconductors are difficult to observe directly. Researchers at the RPTU University of Kaiserslautern-Landau have therefore implemented a quantum simulation of the Josephson effect: They separated two Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) by means of an extremely thin optical barrier.

Glycitein biosynthetic pathway sheds light on soybean disease resistance

Glycitein biosynthetic pathway sheds light on soybean disease resistance

Researchers from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have uncovered the long-elusive biosynthetic pathway of glycitein, a key soybean isoflavonoid. They also reveal how its production determines the plant's resistance to Phytophthora sojae.

Earthquake rupture along Main Marmara Fault shows eastward progression towards Istanbul

Earthquake rupture along Main Marmara Fault shows eastward progression towards Istanbul

In April 2025, the Main Marmara Fault below the Sea of Marmara in northwestern Türkiye experienced its largest earthquake in over 60 years. In a study published in Science, a team of researchers led by Prof. Dr. Patricia Martínez-Garzón from the GFZ Helmholtz Center for Geosciences in Potsdam, Germany, analyzes nearly two decades of seismic data framing the 2025 April magnitude M 6.2 earthquake.

Rare-earth europium substitution allows for more control over CO₂-to-fuel conversion

Rare-earth europium substitution allows for more control over CO₂-to-fuel conversion

The electrochemical CO2 (carbon dioxide) reduction reaction takes harmful pollutants and transforms them into valuable products like fuel. However, selectively tailoring various processes in this reaction to successfully and efficiently arrive at a particular desired outcome remains a challenge.

Feedback loops from oil fields accelerate Arctic warming and other atmospheric changes, study shows

Feedback loops from oil fields accelerate Arctic warming and other atmospheric changes, study shows

The climate is changing and nowhere is it changing faster than at Earth's poles. Researchers at Penn State have painted a comprehensive picture of the chemical processes taking place in the Arctic and found that there are multiple, separate interactions impacting the atmosphere.

Smarter tools for peering into the microscopic world developed

Smarter tools for peering into the microscopic world developed

The microscopic organisms that fill our bodies, soils, oceans and atmosphere play essential roles in human health and the planet's ecosystems. Yet even with modern DNA sequencing, figuring out what these microbes are and how they are related to one another remains extremely difficult.

Unique bond identified as key to viral infection speed

Unique bond identified as key to viral infection speed

Viruses are typically described as tiny, perfectly geometric shells that pack genetic material with mathematical precision, but new research led by scientists at Penn State reveals a deliberate imbalance in their shape that helps them infect their hosts.
