An international team of scientists, led by Adam Simon, has uncovered the role of a gold-trisulfur complex in gold deposit formation. The research, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, reveals how this complex forms in the Earth's mantle under specific pressure and temperature conditions, especially in subduction zones such as the […]
Two perentie lizards, known for their size and carnivorous diet, have been successfully bred at the Los Angeles Zoo. This marks the first time the species has been bred outside of Australia. Experts at the zoo have taken special care to monitor the hatchlings during their early stages, ensuring their health and eventual integration into […]
A comprehensive study involving 91 researchers provides significant insights into the genetic and linguistic origins of Indo-European populations. It identifies two main migrations during the Bronze Age, with steppe ancestry spreading across Europe. The research also links specific populations like the Spanish, French, and Italian to Bell Beaker ancestry, while Greek ...
A recent study using advanced 3D simulations has uncovered the running limitations of Australopithecus afarensis, an ancient hominin that lived over three million years ago. The findings highlight that while the species was capable of running, it could not match the speed or efficiency of modern humans. Insights from muscle mass estimates and digital models […]
The detection of ultra-high-energy gamma rays by the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) in Tibet has sparked debate over the accuracy of the findings. Experts suggest that thunderstorms could interfere with measurements by amplifying particle showers in the atmosphere, leading to overestimated gamma ray energy levels. A study by Ashot Chilingarian and...
