Researchers from the Institute of Botany, Czech Academy of Sciences, have described the symbiotic relationship between fungi and algae that science has largely overlooked until now. The coexistence of algae and corticioid ...
From fundamental physics of light-matter interaction to fabrication of targeted optical properties in highly complex optical engineering, the femtosecond (fs) laser plays a crucial role in laser manufacturing. Ultrashort ...
Burning hydrocarbon fuels produces nano-sized soot particles and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH)—harmful emissions that impact our environment. The carbon-made particles make up 70% of our interstellar space, and ...
Aloe vera is a well-known plant species from the genus Aloe used throughout the globe in wide range of products from creams and soaps to drinks and over-the-counter products. The genus Aloe has been used in traditional medicine ...
In this era of exoplanet discovery, astronomers have found over 5,000 confirmed exoplanets, with thousands more awaiting confirmation and many billions more waiting to be discovered. These exoplanets exist in a bewildering ...
A new interactive Antarctic map promises to assist voyage planning and enhance climate research in the sea-ice zone, by bringing together Southern Ocean data from the past four decades.
Even though students' grades are no worse with online teaching than with face-to-face teaching, many report that the learning process is not sufficient. In 2022, researchers from Ruhr University Bochum's Faculty of Medicine ...
In 1992, humanity's effort to understand the universe took a significant step forward. That's when astronomers discovered the first exoplanets. They're named Poltergeist (Noisy Ghost) and Phobetor (Frightener), and they orbit ...
What do the brain and a school of fish have in common? They are both capable of efficient collective information processing, although each unit within them only has access to local information.
