Betelgeuse explosion imminent? This hidden star could change …
This star, nicknamed "Betelbuddy" by researchers, may be orbiting Betelgeuse, sweeping away the surrounding stellar dust. This interaction could make the star appear brighter at times, according to Jared Goldberg, lead author of the study published on the preprint site arXiv. The current scientific consensus is that Betelgeuse's variations in brightness are …

James Webb upends our understanding of the Universe again: …
Simulation of galaxies ionizing hydrogen gas (bright areas) during the reionization period. Reionization in the current timeline of the universe, from 400 million to 1 billion years after the Big Bang. Recent observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) are overturning our certainties about the timeline of...

Is cryptography, the guardian of our digital security, crumbling in the face of quantum computers' power? A group of Chinese researchers appears to have reached a milestone by breaking RSA encryption using a D-Wave processor. Illustration image from Pexels RSA, the …
This black hole is gorging on matter at 40 times the theoretical …
LID-568 stood out due to its intense X-ray emissions, a characteristic pointing to extreme activity at the galaxy's core. Given its low brightness in other spectra, the researchers had to use JWST's integral field spectrograph to observe each pixel of the visual field, an innovative approach that enabled reliable detection.

The mechanosensitivity of our "second brain" revealed
Aug 25, 2024 · Researchers from the Laboratoire Matière et Systèmes Complexes (, CNRS/University of Paris) and (Australia) have discovered that the neurons of the intestine exhibit mechanosensitive properties from their differentiation, but they do not detect mechanical pressure through action potentials. To study this, scientists used intestines from ...
