Researchers have sealed the mathematical gaps between two seemingly different approaches explaining particle interactions.
There was a time when stars in the night sky were a simile for infinity — one could see so many spluttered across a black blanket that counting them would take a lifetime! Fast forward to today, the night sky is lit not by the moon or stars but by city lights. Indiscriminate use of artificial light — from light bulbs in buildings to sodium lamps on streets to glaring neon billboards — has killed the joy of stargazing. It is estimated that about 83% of the world’s population lives in areas contaminated by light pollution.
Researchers have identified two groups of genes that switch activity and help cancer cells evade therapy and spread aggressively.
Researchers from IIT Bombay report increasing dependence on groundwater after frequent droughts as the cause for the alarming decrease in groundwater levels in South India.
Researchers study how water flows past a surface that repels it heavily.
A researcher has estimated the three-dimensional distribution of molecular and atomic hydrogen in a nearby galaxy.
Researchers have identified a set of proteins that can distinguish between ovarian cancer and benign tumors.
Sigur plateau in the Western Ghats may be ideal for a vulture-sanctuary, say researchers.
Researchers recognise risky driving situations by identifying important factors leading to road crashes.
