Atmospheric 'teleconnections' sustain warm blobs in the northeast Pacific Ocean

The past 10 years have seen a series of "warm blobs" in the northeast Pacific Ocean. These marine heat waves do widespread damage to ecosystems and marine life in the area, but the mechanisms by which they develop and are ...

Demonstration of heralded three-photon entanglement on a photonic chip

Photonic quantum computers are computational tools that leverage quantum physics and utilize particles of light (i.e., photons) as units of information processing. These computers could eventually outperform conventional ...

Beyond equilibrium: Scientists investigate Floquet Fermi liquids

Researchers from Germany and Singapore have studied a non-equilibrium state of Fermi liquids called the Floquet Fermi liquid (FFL), which is formed when Fermi liquids are subjected to a periodic driving force and kept in ...

Carbon trading solutions for declining coral reef management tested with game theory

Climate change in the media is often represented through evocative images of polar bears on small floating ice rafts and bleached corals—stark white skeletons in the wasteland of a once-thriving marine community. Besides ...

Lego-pushing bumblebees reveal insect collaboration dynamics

A new study reveals that cooperation by bumblebees isn't simply a result of accumulated individual efforts. Rather, these miniature-brained creatures are not just hard-working pollinators, but also show signs of being master ...

The BREAD Collaboration is searching for dark photons using a coaxial dish antenna

Approximately 80% of the matter in the universe is predicted to be so-called "dark matter," which does not emit, reflect, or absorb light and thus cannot be directly detected using conventional experimental techniques.

International team cracks genomic code for earliest forms of terrestrial plant life

Plant life first emerged on land about 550 million years ago, and an international research team co-led by University of Nebraska–Lincoln computational biologist Yanbin Yin has cracked the genomic code of its humble beginnings, ...
