The Tyrannosaurus rex, one of the most iconic predators in Earth's history, hides distant origins spanning Asia and North America. A recent study traces the journey of its ancestors across ancient ...

The Kosmos 482 probe, launched in 1972, was intended to land on Venus as part of the USSR's Venera program. However, a rocket failure sealed its fate, leaving part of the spacecraft in Earth's orbit.

Precious metal complexes play a crucial role in the development of medical treatments, particularly in oncology. However, their mode of action and behavior in biological environments remain poorly ...

A team of researchers has developed a vaccine targeting the tau protein, associated with Alzheimer's disease, showing robust immune responses in mice and non-human primates. Encouraged by these ...

Exactly a century ago, Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger laid the foundations of an equation that would mark the history of quantum physics. This equation, bearing his name, describes the behavior ...

The Terrell-Penrose effect, predicted in 1959, suggests that objects moving at speeds close to that of light appear rotated. This optical illusion results from the combination of relativistic length ...

Turning building walls into actual rechargeable batteries: this is the ambition of a Franco-Spanish research team. Their goal is to propose a new electrochemical storage technology based on ...

Millions of miles (kilometers) of rivers worldwide contain antibiotic pollution levels high enough to promote drug resistance and harm aquatic life, according to a study led by McGill University.

Protons play a central role in energy production within cells. A team of researchers has discovered that their movement is influenced by electron spin, a quantum property. This interaction occurs in ...

A 1,800-year-old skeleton discovered in Roman Britain bears bite marks suggesting a violent death at the hands of a large feline. This discovery opens a window into the spectacular and brutal ...

Scientists believed that Venus' crust was continuously thickening, in the absence of mechanisms like plate tectonics. However, a publication in Nature Communications proposes a new model based on rock ...

Chinese researchers have achieved a key breakthrough in the development of flexible solar cells. These scientists have developed an ingenious technique to overcome a major obstacle: the roughness of ...
