Using the National Science Foundation’s Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA), astronomers have demonstrated that a jet of material driven from the core of a massive galaxy is directed by a corkscrew-shaped magnetic field out to approximately 3,300 light-years from the galaxy’s principal supermassive black hole.

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Although the development of these disorders is most commonly associated with lifestyle factors like obesity, increasing evidence suggests that events much earlier in one's life can also play a role.

An extraordinarily massive black hole at the center of one of the Milky Way’s dwarf satellite galaxies called Leo I has been identified by astronomers at The University of Texas at Austin’s McDonald Observatory.

Solid-solution organic crystals are being used in the quest for better photon upconversion materials, which convert currently wasted long-wavelength light into more beneficial shorter wavelength light.

A minimally invasive ablation procedure offers long-term relief for patients who experience chronic and debilitating pain after knee replacement surgery, according to a study being presented next week at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America.

TU Delft scientists have engineered one of the most precise microchip sensors in the world. The device can work at room temperature—a “holy grail” for sensing and quantum technologies.

According to a world-first study by a professional team of geographers and hydrologists, rivers in southern Africa, South America, and Australia are most at risk of extreme ecological variations caused by global warming.

Scientists have formulated a method using which they can freely encapsulate microscopic droplets of water and oil emulsion in a minute sphere made of salt crystals — similar to a tiny, self-constructing origami soccer ball packed with liquid.

The remaining global carbon budget for the 12 main industry and service sectors has been defined by researchers to restrict global warming to 1.5 °C by 2050 and implement the Paris Climate Agreement.

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have analyzed the presence of SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies and memory cells of the immune system in young adults.
