Using the ROentgen SATellite (ROSAT), astronomers have discovered a new cataclysmic variable system of the polar subtype. The ...

A recent study utilizing the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) has confirmed the "radio-quiet" characteristics of four magnetars and one magnetar-like pulsar. Conducted by ...

Norway will open for cities to introduce zero-emissions zones, as the number of electric cars on the road in the biggest urban centers passes 40%. Such zones are a useful “tool that can ...

In the present article, this approach is applied to mathematical modeling of field emission from a conic silicon cathode of small size (about ten micrometers) to a vacuum, but can be used in other ...

Joseph Wambaugh, who has died aged 88, was a former Los Angeles detective who in the 1970s became a bestselling author of grim and gritty books about the police such as The Onion Field (1973) and ...

Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin is urging the White House to strike down a scientific finding that facilitated the EPA’s regulation of greenhouse gas emissions. Citing unnamed ...

New research suggests that all five subregions of Africa will breach the 1.5 C climate change threshold -- the limit stipulated by the Paris Agreement -- by 2040 even under low emission scenarios.

It achieves this by pricing greenhouse gas emission reduction through trading of carbon credit certificates. Different types of carbon markets exist globally. In European emission trading markets ...

Scientists have discovered a monumental 'weak spot' in our planet's magnetic field is growing, which could have huge consequences for us on Earth. Space is constantly changing, with NASA focusing many ...

and this is the first time scientists have been able to track the X-ray emission from one of these rare duos, capturing its evolution from the initial burst to its gradual fading. On May 27, 2024, the ...

The research team, led by Steven Dillmann of Stanford University was scouring decades-old data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory when it spotted a powerful (but brief) blast of X-rays coming ...
