(Siberian Federal University) An international team of researchers from Russia, Sweden and South Korea has proposed a new way to test the structural stability of predicted 2D materials. The testing revealed a number of m...

While the amount of antibodies generated varies widely in patients who have recovered from coronavirus, most people generate at least some antibodies which are intrinsically capable of neutralizing the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

A few years ago, in a pitch black room at Stanford University, a monkey sat silently in his custom-made chair, utterly bewildered. It wasn't because of the head brace, which held his head completely still. It wasn't the ...

Explorers trawling the polar ice have finally unearthed a trove of precious, iron-rich space rocks that might help crack the puzzle of how our planet took shape

Twin shock waves produced by the galaxy's central black hole could have inflated the gargantuan Fermi Bubbles about 6 million years ago, a new study suggests.

SpaceX will have to wait a few days to make history.

Altered mental state and strokes are the most common neurological symptoms associated with coronavirus infection.

Bite marks on a collection of Jurassic dinosaur bones show that allosaurus, a carnivorous dinosaur, sometimes ate its own kind, possibly because environmental conditions made other food scarce

Researchers have identified a hippocampal neural network that activates during stress. Activity in a hippocampal-hypothalamus network predicts greater feelings of stress, while connectivity between the hippocampus and do...

Against the odds, a tiny wildlife retreat has won the day in a battle with developers. It is a sign that attitudes may finally be changing for the better, says Graham Lawton

Researchers studied bite marks on more than 2,000 dinosaur bones and found that some of them were cannibalized.

Forget the naysayers: what we must do to combat climate change is far less drastic than coronavirus measures, says World Meteorological Organization head Petteri Taalas

Subtle patterns can be seen in people's reaction times as their memories are recalled, and boosting these brainwaves could help treat Alzheimer's disease

Electrical and computer engineers at the University of Virginia and University of Texas-Austin have developed an avalanche photodiode that achieved record performance and has the potential to transform next generation ni...

One space mystery has helped solve another, with the discovery that strange space signals called fast radio bursts can help pin down the universe's missing matter

Graphene analogues such as graphene oxide (GO) and its reduced forms (rGO) are fascinating carbon materials due to the complementary properties endowed by the sp3-sp2 interconversion, revealing the substitutability and p...

In the late 2020s, Fermilab will begin sending the world's most intense beam of neutrinos through Earth's crust to detectors in South Dakota for the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, or DUNE. When the n...

Researchers at MIT and elsewhere have combined the power of a super collider with techniques of laser spectroscopy to precisely measure a short-lived radioactive molecule, radium monofluoride, for the first time.

SpaceX's first-ever crewed mission, a test flight called Demo-2, is scheduled to launch at 4:33 p.m. EDT today (May 27) from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

Excavators have already found the remains of about 60 mammoths and 15 pre-Hispanic indigenous people.

Researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China have recently introduced a new satellite-based quantum-secure time transfer (QSTT) protocol that could enable more secure communications between different ...

Many countries are relaxing coronavirus restrictions. If you've been asked to return to work or school, how can you reduce the risk of infection to yourself and your family?
