Aoudad and bighorn sheep share respiratory pathogens, research team discovers

Aoudad and bighorn sheep share respiratory pathogens, research team discovers

A team of researchers at the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences (VMBS) has discovered that aoudad—an animal in the sheep and goat family—can catch and spread many of the same respiratory pathogens that can impact desert bighorn sheep, a native species in Texas that often shares its habitat with aoudad.

New varactor enhances quantum dot device measurements at millikelvin temperatures

New varactor enhances quantum dot device measurements at millikelvin temperatures

The development of quantum computing systems relies on the ability to rapidly and precisely measure these systems' electrical properties, such as their underlying charge and spin states. These measurements are typically collected using radio-frequency resonators, which are tuned using voltage-controlled capacitors known as varactors.

NASA's DART impact permanently changed the shape and orbit of asteroid moon, new study shows

NASA's DART impact permanently changed the shape and orbit of asteroid moon, new study shows

When NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft collided with an asteroid moon called Dimorphos in 2022, the moon was significantly deformed—creating a large crater and reshaping it so dramatically that the moon derailed from its original evolutionary progression—according to a new study. The study's researchers believe that Dimorphos may start to "tumble" chaotically in its attempts to move back into gravitational equilibrium with its parent asteroid named Didymos.

Unconventional interface superconductor could benefit quantum computing

Unconventional interface superconductor could benefit quantum computing

A multi-institutional team of scientists in the United States, led by physicist Peng Wei at the University of California, Riverside, has developed a new superconductor material that could potentially be used in quantum computing and be a candidate "topological superconductor."

Carbon emissions from forest soil will likely grow with rising temperatures

Carbon emissions from forest soil will likely grow with rising temperatures

The soils of northern forests are key reservoirs that help keep the carbon dioxide that trees inhale and use for photosynthesis from making it back into the atmosphere. But a unique experiment led by Peter Reich of the University of Michigan is showing that, on a warming planet, more carbon is escaping the soil than is being added by plants.

Researchers discover dual epicenters in New Year's Day Noto earthquake

Researchers discover dual epicenters in New Year's Day Noto earthquake

The first seven months of 2024 have been so eventful, it's easy to forget that the year started off with a magnitude 7.5 earthquake centered beneath Japan's Noto Peninsula on New Year's Day. The earthquake killed more than 280 people and damaged more than 83,000 homes.

Test of a prototype quantum internet runs under New York City for half a month

Test of a prototype quantum internet runs under New York City for half a month

To introduce quantum networks into the marketplace, engineers must overcome the fragility of entangled states in a fiber cable and ensure the efficiency of signal delivery. Now, scientists at Qunnect Inc. in Brooklyn, New York, have taken a large step forward by operating just such a network under the streets of New York City.

Saturday Citations: Tarantulas and their homies; how mosquitoes find you; black holes not mysterious at all

Saturday Citations: Tarantulas and their homies; how mosquitoes find you; black holes not mysterious at all

So much science news this week. It's like a torrential deluge of information bursting explosively through a levee of ignorance. Who built that levee, anyway? How did they get that through the legislature? Anyway, of the hundreds of stories we reported this week, here are capsules of three interesting ones. Two of them involve bugs.

NASA decides to keep 2 astronauts in space until February, nixes return on troubled Boeing capsule

NASA decides to keep 2 astronauts in space until February, nixes return on troubled Boeing capsule

NASA decided Saturday it's too risky to bring two astronauts back to Earth in Boeing's troubled new capsule, and they'll have to wait until next year for a ride home with SpaceX. What should have been a weeklong test flight for the pair will now last more than eight months.
