Some researchers are seeking out the ancient history of these patterns in a substance that may be unexpected to some: plant wax. The study, coauthored by Daniel Ibarra, an assistant professor of Earth ...

“These offsets largely disappear,” Yue Li said, summarizing the team's reanalysis and its implications for isotope tracing. The authors contend that moving toward sap‑flow and plant‑available sampling ...

There's a whole slew of objects that astronomers aren't sure whether to classify as "failed stars" or "overgrown planets." ...

We all have a concept of reality. We know what is “fact” and what isn’t. However, the truth of the matter is that the definition of “real” is a mere construct of the brain. If that didn’t blow your ...

There is so much information about the world and life itself out there that it’s almost unfathomable. And every now and then, you will learn new information that will blow your mind into a thousand ...

After a long dry spell for oil, it took a war to bring the necessity of fossil fuels back into focus. But let’s not get carried away. The world markets are flooded with oil, and the US and Canada have ...

A new experiment using rare-isotope beams has provided new insight into the origin of proton-rich isotopes known as p-nuclei.

For decades, scientists have relied on a chemical fingerprint inside water molecules to determine where plants get their moisture. The method shaped our understanding of drought resilience, ...

There is a category of planet that belongs to no star. It was thrown clear of its solar system early in the chaos of ...

Hydrogen is increasingly viewed as a critical energy carrier capable of supporting decarbonization across sectors such as industry, transportation, and power generation. Unlike fossil fuels, hydrogen ...

MESSRS. R. P. BELL and J. H. Wolfenden 1 have recently given their experience in concentrating the hydrogen isotope, namely, that nickel, platinum and copper are about equally efficient as cathodes, ...
