Credit: CC0 Public DomainInvestigators at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have determined the microorganisms most typically discovered in intense oral diseases. Few such research have been done previously, and the group currently wishes that the investigation can deliver much deeper insight into the association in between dental germs and other diseases. The research is released...
Public opinion is shifting to wanting a much more proactive approach to animal well-being rather than a reactive approach to animal cruelty.University of Adelaide specialists asked the Australian public about their perception of the penalties for animal cruelty.The court of public opinionRochelle Morton, a Ph.D. student from the University of Adelaide's School of Animal...
Along each of the three axes of measurement, a mechanical accelerometer is connected to the reference mirror of the atom interferometer, resulting in a classic/quantum hybridization that permits continual acceleration measurement with an ultralow proclivity. Measurements of the three vector components are utilized to determine the acceleration vector in any direction. The sensor is...
Several of the ancient Egyptian branding-irons — actually made of bronze — were too small for large animals like cattle and were probably used to brand human slaves.

Scientists showed how MnBi6Te10, shown here in purple (tellurium), blue (bismuth) and green (manganese), can act as a magnetic topological insulator, conducting electrical current (blue) along a “quantum highway” without losing energy. The study revealed that a concerted action of different material defects is key to the quantum electronic properties. Credit: University of ChicagoQuantum...
