Study unveils contributions to superconductivity in the vortex lattice structure of 2H-NbSe₂

Superconductivity is a quantum property of materials entailing an electrical resistance of zero at very low temperatures. In some materials, multiple electronic bands are known to contribute to the emergence of superconductivity, leading to multiple superconducting energy gaps. This phenomenon is referred to as multiband superconductivity.

There’s a micromoon coming up.

New observations show the asteroid that won’t hit Earth resembles a spinning hockey puck

The asteroid that once had a small chance of striking Earth and now might slam into the moon resembles a spinning hockey puck, scientists said Tuesday.

A year after the solar eclipse, Dallas area scientists are still uncovering cosmic clues

For some Dallas-area scientists, the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024, was more than just a once-in-a-lifetime cosmic spectacle: It was a rare and invaluable research opportunity, the perfect controlled experiment.

NASA’s Deep Space Network starts new dish, marks 60 years in Australia

Canberra joined the global network in 1965 and operates four radio antennas. Now, preparations have begun on its fifth as NASA works to increase the network’s capacity.

Researcher proposes first-time model that replaces dark energy and dark matter in explaining nature of the universe

Dr. Richard Lieu, a physics professor at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a part of The University of Alabama System, has published a paper in the journal Classical and Quantum Gravity that proposes a universe built on steps of multiple singularities rather than the Big Bang alone to account for the expansion of the cosmos.

Frustration incorporated: How mismatched geometries can enhance material strength and toughness

Anyone who’s ever tried tiling a floor, a backsplash or even an arts-and-crafts project probably knows the emotional frustration of working with pieces whose shapes don’t perfectly complement each other. It turns out, though, that some creatures may actually rely on similar mismatches to create geometric frustrations that result in complex natural structures with remarkable properties, such as protective shells and sturdy yet flexible bones.

Seattle settles with veteran police commander for nearly $1M over discrimination claims

Capt. Steve Hirjak alleged that he was blamed and mistreated after a different commander violated protest response policies

Saturn’s moon Titan could harbor life, but only a tiny amount, study finds

Titan, Saturn’s largest moon, is a strange, alien world. Covered in rivers and lakes of liquid methane, icy boulders and dunes of soot-like “sand,” its topography has long fascinated scientists and invited speculation on whether life-forms might lurk beneath the moon’s thick, hazy atmosphere.

Observations explore the persistent nature of X-ray binary 4U 0728-25

Using ESA’s XMM-Newton satellite, Italian astronomers have observed a Galactic X-ray binary system known as 4U 0728-25. Results of the new observations, presented in a research paper published March 28 on the arXiv preprint server, shed more light on the persistent nature of this source.

Do ‘completely dark’ dark matter halos exist?

Every galaxy is thought to form at the center of a dark matter halo—a region of gravitationally bound matter that extends far beyond the visible boundaries of a galaxy. Stars are formed when gravity within dark matter halos draws in gas, but astrophysicists don’t yet know whether star-free dark matter halos exist.
