Analysis of heterostructures for spintronics shows how two desired quantum-physical effects reinforce each other

Analysis of heterostructures for spintronics shows how two desired quantum-physical effects reinforce each other

Spintronics uses the spins of electrons to perform logic operations or store information. Ideally, spintronic devices could operate faster and more energy-efficiently than conventional semiconductor devices. However, it is still difficult to create and manipulate spin textures in materials.

Genome sequence analysis identifies new driver of antimicrobial resistance

Genome sequence analysis identifies new driver of antimicrobial resistance

Antibiotics are a lifesaving tool. Yet, due to their chronic overuse, microbes are evolving and developing immunity against them. As a result, once-effective medications can no longer stave off infections, complicating treatment and increasing mortality.

A possible explanation for the 'missing plastic problem': New detection technique finds microplastics in coral skeletons

A possible explanation for the 'missing plastic problem': New detection technique finds microplastics in coral skeletons

Researchers from Japan and Thailand investigating microplastics in coral have found that all three parts of the coral anatomy—surface mucus, tissue, and skeleton—contain microplastics. The findings were made possible thanks to a new microplastic detection technique developed by the team and applied to coral for the first time.

Study reveals large ocean heat storage efficiency during the last deglaciation

Study reveals large ocean heat storage efficiency during the last deglaciation

As one of the largest heat reservoirs in the climate system, the global ocean absorbs more than 90% of the excess energy from ongoing anthropogenic warming. In the last century, the greatest warming in the ocean has occurred in the upper 500 m, with relatively weak warming in the deep ocean, corresponding to a small ocean heat storage efficiency of ~0.1.

Citizen science collaboration yields precise data on exoplanet WASP-77 A b

Citizen science collaboration yields precise data on exoplanet WASP-77 A b

A planet swings in front of its star, dimming the starlight we see. Events like these, called transits, provide us with bounties of information about exoplanets—planets around stars other than the sun. But predicting when these special events occur can be challenging…unless you have help from volunteers.

Light momentum turns pure silicon from an indirect to a direct bandgap semiconductor

Light momentum turns pure silicon from an indirect to a direct bandgap semiconductor

UC Irvine-led research reveals that the optical properties of materials can be dramatically enhanced—not by changing the materials themselves, but by giving the light new properties.

AI tools help uncover enzyme mechanisms for lasso peptides

AI tools help uncover enzyme mechanisms for lasso peptides

Lasso peptides are natural products made by bacteria. Their unusual lasso shape endows them with remarkable stability, protecting them from extreme conditions. In a new study, published in Nature Chemical Biology, researchers have constructed and tested models for how these peptides are made and demonstrated how this information might be used to advance lasso peptide-based drugs into the clinic.

New data science tool greatly speeds up molecular analysis of our environment

New data science tool greatly speeds up molecular analysis of our environment

A research team led by scientists at the University of California, Riverside, has developed a computational workflow for analyzing large data sets in the field of metabolomics, the study of small molecules found within cells, biofluids, tissues, and entire ecosystems.

Saturday Citations: Football metaphors in physics; vets treat adorable baby rhino's broken leg

Saturday Citations: Football metaphors in physics; vets treat adorable baby rhino's broken leg

This week, researchers reported an effective way to protect working dogs from heat stress: training them to dunk their heads in cool water. A new computational technique provided a breakthrough in understanding the so-called "pseudogap" in quantum physics, a development that could lead to room-temperature superconductivity. And a bunch of scientists agree: Evidence now supports global action to combat microplastics. And a few other things happened, too. Among them:

Many people in the Pacific lack access to adequate toilets—and climate change makes things worse

The Pacific Islands may evoke images of sprawling coastlines and picturesque scenery. But while this part of the world might look like paradise, many local residents are grappling with a serious public health issue.
