Identical vesicles, different behaviors: Model reveals how spontaneous asymmetry gives rise to lifelike behavior
In nonreciprocal active matter, agents act differently on each other, seemingly in violation of Newton's third law. This principle can result in various active matter traits, such as self-propulsion, molecular regulation and…

Decoding the loopy physics of hula hooping with high-tech earthquake sensorsHula hooping may be literal child's play, but as it turns out, the physics behind the gym-class staple is so complicated that scientists have spent decades trying to understand how the hula hoop defies gravity.We studied 1,584 data centers—and found the buildings full of machines are tied to modest local job growthData centers require enormous investments: land, buildings, computer equipment and power infrastructure. Yet, once they're up and running, they tend to employ no more than a few dozen people in occupations such as IT technicians…Biodiversity hotspots in southwestern Germany are losing their species richnessClimate change and shifts in land use are affecting habitats and, consequently, plant diversity. To better understand the consequences of these developments, long-term and comprehensive data are essential. The "Floristic Mapping…The way Earth's 'thermostat' works may have changed during Pangea eraLife arose on Earth at least 3.5 billion years ago, and our planet has remained habitable ever since—not too hot, not too cold. These life-sustaining conditions are possible in part thanks to a built-in, carbon cycle–based…Can your brain make you see ghosts? The science behind the Bloody Mary legendIt's Halloween night. Someone has dared you to turn off the lights and stand in front of the mirror. The rules are simple: Stare into your reflection and say her name three times.A 'simple recipe' takes some of the guesswork out of mass spectrometry imagingA small sample of human tissue can hold a remarkable amount of information. Researchers can use it to search for molecular clues associated with cancer, investigate the chemical landscape of the brain or determine where a drug…This page holds the headline and a short snippet as published by Phys.org, whose feed they came from.
