The thick once again plottens in the quest to narrow down the expansion rate of the Universe.

Researchers have taken the first atomic-resolution images and demonstrated electrical control of a chiral interface state – an exotic quantum phenomenon that

A new automated workflow developed by scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) has the potential to allow researchers to analyze the products of their reaction experiments in real time, a key capability needed for future automated chemical processes.

For millions of years, underground fungi have lived in symbiosis with plant roots. Researchers have been able to study both sides of this interaction up close,

Researchers have developed an automated workflow that could accelerate the discovery of new pharmaceutical drugs and other useful products. The new approach cou

Over the past few years the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument, or DESI – a scientific research instrument for conducting spectrographic astronomical surveys of distant galaxies – has...

Sudden Oak Death, the killer of millions of oaks and tanoaks, persists in California forests and oak woodlands, and it is not going away, writes Napa arborist Bill Pramuk.

Scientists thought dark energy was constant. This groundbreaking study suggests otherwise.

In 2021, researchers at Kitt Peak Observatory south of Tucson started a five-year project to study dark energy by making the largest 3D map of the universe. The team now says it has measured the expansion of the cosmos with the highest precision ever.The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument, capable of observing 100,000 galaxies every night, has allowed researchers to measure

Researchers have used the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument to make the largest 3D map of our universe and world-leading measurements of dark energy, the mys
