Sydney, Australia (SPX) Aug 01, 2024 - The first set of medium-frequency antennas built in China for the Square Kilometer Array (SKA) has been shipped to South Africa, marking a major milestone in constructing the world's largest radio telescope array.

These antennas were sent from Shijiazhuang, the capital of north China's Hebei Province, to the SKA site in South Africa.

Sydney, Australia (SPX) Aug 05, 2024 - A team of researchers led by Mr. Kai-An You and Dr. Ke-Jung Chen at the Academia Sinica Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics (ASIAA) has made notable advancements in the modeling of massive star evolution and their supernova explosions. Their findings are featured in the latest issue of the Astrophysical Journal.

Supernova explosions mark the dramatic end of massive stars, releasing an immense amount of light equivalent to billions of suns. These explosions... Читать дальше...

Berlin, Germany (SPX) Aug 05, 2024 - A recent study leveraging machine learning and data from the Gaia mission has unveiled a significant finding about the Milky Way's evolution. Researchers discovered a large number of ancient stars on orbits similar to our Sun within the galaxy's thin disk. These stars, forming less than a billion years after the Big Bang, suggest the thin disk's formation occurred several billion years earlier than previously thought.

The Milky Way consists of a halo, a central bulge and bar... Читать дальше...

Los Angeles CA (SPX) Aug 05, 2024 - Researchers have uncovered that a rare element found in ancient meteorites, initially believed to be created in supernova explosions, may predate these events, challenging established theories regarding its origin.

A team at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) investigated the radioactive isotope beryllium-10, present during the solar system's formation approximately 4.5 to 5 billion years ago. They explored the potential for this... Читать дальше...

Paris (AFP) July 30, 2024 - Massive explosions on the Sun have triggered warnings of geomagnetic storms that could create dazzling auroras in the northern United States, Europe and southern Australia from Tuesday night.

In May, the most powerful geomagnetic storm to strike Earth in more than two decades lit up night skies with colourful displays in Hawaii, Spain, South Africa and other places far from the extreme latitudes where they are normally seen.

Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Aug 05, 2024 - Auroras are natural luminous phenomena caused by the interaction of electrons falling from the sky and the upper atmosphere. Most of the observed light consists of emission lines of neutral or ionized nitrogen and oxygen atoms and molecular emission bands, and the color is determined by the transition energy levels, molecular vibrations and rotations.

There is a variety of characteristic colors of auroras, such as green and red, but there are multiple theories... Читать дальше...

Los Angeles CA (SPX) Aug 02, 2024 - Memory safety vulnerabilities remain the most common type of disclosed software flaws, primarily affecting a computer's memory in two significant ways. Programming languages like C permit direct memory manipulation, often leading to accidental errors that can corrupt memory. Additionally, undefined behaviors in programming languages can cause unpredictable program behavior, as the language standard does not specify how the program should react under certain conditions.

Paris (AFP) July 30, 2024 - Researchers have criticised billionaire Elon Musk for promising that his brain implant technology could eventually provide patients with vision superior to normal human sight.

Musk has long promised that his Neuralink company was working on implants that could restore sight to blind people, telling his 190 million followers on X in March that the product would be called "Blindsight".
