Hyperdoped silicon photodiode advances short-wave infrared detection at room temperature‎

Detecting short-wave infrared (SWIR) light, a region of the electromagnetic spectrum just beyond the light visible to the human eye, could be advantageous for many real-world applications. For instance, it could enable more advanced systems for capturing images at night, as well as sophisticated medical imaging, environmental monitoring and industrial inspection technologies.

Appropriated racial oppression shapes Black parents' socialization of children‎

Black parents who experienced higher levels of appropriated racial oppression—defined as shaping one's behavior and self-concept around dominant cultural norms of whiteness—were less likely to transmit positive, culturally protective messages that affirmed racial pride and self-worth to their adolescent children, a recent study found.

Support groups for parents halved violence against children in wartime Ukraine, trial finds‎

Ukrainian parents who joined a support group program called "Hope Groups," designed for families living through the war, reported that violence against children was cut in half and that they had less than half the depression and anxiety symptoms of parents who had not yet participated in the program, according to a new trial led by the University of Oxford.

Researchers map tick habitat to strengthen African swine fever preparedness‎

A small, nest-dwelling tick found across large parts of Texas could play an outsized role in how the United States responds to African swine fever (ASF) should the virus reach domestic or wild pigs.

Utah mountain ranges may store a billion tons of hidden ice‎

Unlike conventional glaciers, rock glaciers appear as piles of rock that obscure large masses of unaccounted-for ice. Rock glaciers are common in the Wasatch and Uinta ranges, even appearing on the Colorado Plateau in the La Sal Mountains near Moab.

Butterfly-inspired crystals could enable durable, potentially safer glitter‎

The next time you need to freshen up the paint on your house or apply a bit of cosmetic glitter before heading out for the night, you might want to give a quick nod to the butterflies fluttering in a nearby garden. Taking inspiration from structures on those wings that create their vibrant colors, researchers are now devising more durable and adjustable colors that are also safer for human health and the environment.

Catalyzing the community: Chemists and Navajo leaders educate on clean water‎

Many Native American communities in rural areas rely on well water, but the quality and safety of that water can vary significantly. Researchers led by Jani C. Ingram measured levels of heavy metals in well water on tribal lands through a community partnership with the Navajo Nation. After compiling their water-quality data, the researchers and tribal leaders developed best practices for distributing educational resources about safe drinking water to residents of Navajo reservations.

Volcanic eruptions and warming climate disrupt long-standing link between Indian and Pacific oceans‎

A new study that combines paleoclimate data and climate models suggests that large volcanic eruptions can disrupt the relationship between atmospheric circulation patterns over the tropical Indian and Pacific oceans. In addition, human-caused greenhouse gas emissions are now driving an unprecedented breakdown in interbasin coupling, according to researchers at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI).
