Scientists create “time machine” simulations studying the lifecycle of ancestor galaxy cities. Credit: Scitech Daily. Scientists have produced simulations that directly recreate the complete life cycle of a few of the biggest collections of galaxies observed. Several processes in astrophysics take a very long time, making their evolution tricky to study. A star like our sun...
Illustration of the brain. Credit: Capillary Technologies. Experiencing a frightening incident is likely something you will always remember. Why does it remain with you when other kinds of events become increasingly hard to remember with time? A mechanism for the formation of fear memories in the amygdala, the emotional center of the brains, has been identified...
In a new experiment, scientists created two time crystals inside the superfluid, and brought them to touch. Credit: SciTechdaily. Time crystals were long considered impractical because their continuous movement would seem to challenge the laws of physics. Utilizing quantum physics, scientists have developed time crystals and now proved that they can power helpful tools in...
Credit: EWG. As the most current report from the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) explains, the 2020s have to be a decade of change. This is necessary to attain the goals of the Paris Agreement. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is foreseed to play a vital role to cut carbon emissions. Depending on...

The introduction of a partial fundamental revenue targeted at young people living in France would give a crucial 'leg up' to the nation's powerless young people, state the new report's authors. The analysis from the...

To recognize what created it, researchers have wanted to one certain event in which a volcanic eruption in what is now Siberia spewed big volumes of greenhouse gas right into the ambiance. However, there is proof the...

A new study led by a College of Cambridge is the first to take a detailed picture of an unusual pocket of rock at the border layer with the Planet's core, some 3 thousand kilometers under the surface, giving new hope of understanding...
Astronomers find 'gold standard' star in Milky Way. Credit: Carnegie Science There is a relatively bright star in our sun's neighborhood of the Milky Way Galaxy. Inside of it, astronomers have been able to identify the widest variety of elements in a star more than our solar system yet. The research, led by University of Michigan...
