Using the Large Phased Array (LPA) radio telescope of the Lebedev Physical Institute (LPI) in Pushchino, Russia, astronomers have detected two new rotating radio transients (RRATS). The finding is reported in a research paper ...
Richard Schwartz, a mathematician at Brown University has found a solution to the problem of how small a Möbius band can be made without intersecting itself—at least for a smooth piece of paper. The paper is published on ...
The United States has the largest age gap in voter turnout among advanced democracies. Youth voter turnout remained low, at 48%, in 2020. Scholars, educators, and policymakers often recommend civic education as a solution ...
