Curious about the remarkable ability of how do hummingbirds find feeders in seemingly remote areas? Despite their tiny size, these incredible birds possess an astonishing sense of direction and an uncanny knack for finding food sources, even in the middle of nowhere. Understanding the mechanisms behind this remarkable feat can shed light on the fascinating …

Colts tight end Kylen Granson had been waiting a long time to catch an NFL touchdown. So when he did Sunday, he celebrated like it was the birth of a child.
Aqueous potassium-ion batteries are a promising alternative to lithium-ion batteries owing to their safety and low cost. However, not much is known about the properties of the solid-electrolyte interphases (SEI) that form between the electrode and the aqueous electrolyte. To address this knowledge gap, researchers from Japan have now conducted a study using advanced scanning electrochemical microscopy and operando electrochemical mass spectrometry. Their findings provide a deeper understanding of SEI in next-generation batteries.
Transition metals exchange electrons with supporting ligands to form complexes that facilitate reaction catalysis in several industries, like pharmaceutical production. Both the metal center and the ligand moiety have pivotal roles in enabling catalysis. While numerous transition metal-catalyzed photoreactions have been developed, only a few new ligands have been reported. Researchers from Chiba University have now developed novel ligands to create transition metal complexes, defining new reaction capabilities.
In his new film Flora and Son, the Irish director spins a romance via Zoom — and pokes some fun at it, too.
Plans to phase out gas boilers and introduce a ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars could be scaled back or delayed
New research sheds light on where and how we feel different kinds of love.
Researchers have developed a new laser-based sampling system for studying the composition of ice cores taken from glaciers. The new system has a 3-mm depth-resolution and is expected to help reconstruct continuous annual temperature changes that occurred thousands to hundreds of thousands of years ago, which will help scientists understand climate change in the past and present.

Researchers combined soft microactuators with high-energy-density chemical fuel to create an insect-scale quadrupedal robot that is powered by combustion and can outrace, outlift, outflex and outleap its electric-driven competitors.
The Iranian diplomat reiterated his country’s readiness to host a meeting in the 3+3 format on the settlement of the Karabakh problem
Avanti West Coast has had its contract renewed to operate its UK rail routes, despite issues with delays and cancellations.
"Eastern Diamondbacks are highly venomous snakes and are very common to this area," the sheriff's office said.
Storing renewable energy as hydrogen could soon become much easier thanks to a new catalyst based on single atoms of platinum.
Hardy Carroll Lloyd admitted that the actual or perceived Jewish faith of the government witnesses and victims in the trial of Robert Bowers prompted him to target the jury and witnesses.
Plus, Maersk joined up with CMA CGM to decarbonize ocean shipping.
Researchers have grown a high-performing 2D semiconductor to a full-size, industrial-scale wafer. In addition, the semiconductor material, indium selenide (InSe), can be deposited at temperatures low enough to integrate with a silicon chip.
The output of wind turbines can rise or fall by 50 per cent in a matter of seconds. Such fluctuations in the megawatt range put a strain on both power grids and the turbines themselves. A new study presents a new stochastic method that could help to mitigate these sudden swings and achieve a more consistent electricity production.
Computer models provide new insight into how the neurotransmitter dopamine controls learning and decision-making processes.
Researchers have developed a way of detecting the early onset of deadly infectious diseases using a test so ultrasensitive that it could someday revolutionize medical approaches to epidemics. The test is an electronic sensor contained within a computer chip. It employs nanoballs -- microscopic spherical clumps made of tinier particles of genetic material -- and combines that technology with advanced electronics.
A new study shows that human instruction is still necessary to detect and compensate for unintended, and sometimes negative, changes in neurosurgeon behavior after virtual reality AI training. This finding has implications for other fields of training.
Acute sinusitis is one of the most common causes for children to be put on antibiotic medications, with patients in the United States filing nearly 5 million antibiotic prescriptions every year to treat the condition. The drugs amoxicillin and amoxicillin-clavulanate make up most of those prescriptions, but there is a lack of consensus on which should be first-line for children.
