Scattered bronze bells in Chinese lord's 2,600-year-old tomb point to ritual deactivation‎

When archaeologists opened the 2,600-year-old tomb of an ancient Chinese lord, they discovered his magnificent bronze bells had been scattered, their wooden hangings broken. But the most mysterious part of all: This was apparently no accident, with the family of the tomb's owner having chosen to "deactivate" the bells when their powers were no longer needed.

Rare 309-million-year-old fossils suggest early tetrapods developed without tadpole phase‎

Scientists have long posited that the earliest water animals to transition to land had amphibious tadpole features, going through a metamorphosis akin to that of today's frogs.

Mini monitor measures artificial heartbeat‎

An international team, including the University of Tokyo, has created a sensor inspired by the lateral line in fish—their "sixth sense" organ—which measures the pulse of lab-grown 3D heart tissue (cardiac organoids). The device, called a biomechanical well plate, looks like a small white box containing four liquid-filled wells.

Wild yeast discovery enables non-GM brewing of ornithine-enriched craft beer‎

As consumer interest grows in foods and beverages with added nutritional value, brewers are exploring ways to improve fermentation itself rather than relying on post-production additives. Ornithine, a naturally occurring amino acid involved in several biological processes, has attracted attention as a promising ingredient for value-added products. However, increasing ornithine production in brewing yeast is difficult because the metabolic pathway is tightly regulated, making conventional improvement strategies challenging.

Spain data on 5.5 million convictions challenges immigration-crime link‎

When analyzing crime, the foreign population typically shows higher rates than the native population. However, crime statistics change significantly when comparing groups of the same age and gender. A detailed data analysis conducted in a study by the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) demonstrates that the apparent crime gap between the foreign and native populations is primarily due to the fact that the immigrant profile tends to concentrate more young men—the demographic sector with the highest crime rates in any society.

Controlling magnetic chirality could help memory pack in more data‎

Magnetic storage devices, like a computer's hard disk drive, utilize magnets to represent binary data. However, as these devices are downsized, stray magnetic fields generated by individual magnetic components can interact with neighboring elements to cause operational malfunctions, limiting how much data we can densely pack into memory devices.

'Very dangerous' super typhoon nears US Pacific islands‎

People in Guam and the Northern Marianas moved to emergency evacuation centers and made last-minute preparations on Sunday, hours before a "super typhoon" was projected to bulldoze through the U.S. Pacific territories.
