• Scientists discover new evidence of intermediate-mass black holes May 30, 2025
  A series of studies sheds light on the origins and characteristics of intermediate-mass black holes.
• Long shot science leads to revised age for land-animal ancestor May 29, 2025
  The fossils of ancient salamander-like creatures in Scotland are among the most well-preserved examples of early stem tetrapods -- some of the first animals to make the transition from water to land. Thanks to new research, scientists believe that these creatures are 14 million years older than previously thought. The new age -- dating back […]
• Listening to electrons talk May 29, 2025
  Researchers present new experimental and theoretical results for the bound electron g-factor in lithium-like tin which has a much higher nuclear charge than any previous measurement. The experimental accuracy reached a level of 0.5 parts per billion. Using an enhanced interelectronic QED method, the theoretical prediction for the g-factor reached a precision of 6 parts […]
• Save twice the ice by limiting global warming May 29, 2025
  A new study finds that if global warming exceeds the Paris Climate Agreement targets, the non-polar glacier mass will diminish significantly. However, if warming is limited to 1.5 degrees Celsius, at least 54 per cent could be preserved -- more than twice as much ice as in a 2.7 C scenario.
