Measuring laws…
One of the fundamental physical constants, the ‘weak axial vector coupling constant’ (gA), has now been measured with very high precision for the first time. It is needed to explain nuclear fusion in the sun, to understand the formation of elements shortly after the Big Bang, or to understand important experiments in particle physics. With…

Colour. And shape…
There are hundreds of thousands of distinct colors and shapes that a person can distinguish visually, but how does the brain process all of this information? Scientists previously believed that the visual system initially encodes shape and color with different sets of neurons and then combines them much later. But a new study from Salk…

Questions… Hiding the Answers…
We keep on asking our selves how we can live forever. We keep trying to find answers on deep philosophical questions for the meaning of life. We insist on trying to find out what ‘reality’ is. Only because we are afraid. To admit that there are no answers to our questions. We always knew that.…

Bubbles… Being…
The flow of granular materials, such as sand and catalytic particles, is used in chemical reactors, and enables a wide range of natural phenomena, from mudslides to volcanos, as well as a broad array of industrial processes, from pharmaceutical production to carbon capture. A recent discovery by Chris Boyce, explains a new family of gravitational…

Learning. Remembering. Crying.
Scientists have revealed the structure of a critical receptor in the brain associated with learning, memory, behavior and mood. The new research is the first to reveal the structure of AMPA receptors in their natural state. This discovery could lead to new insight about the mechanism behind a wide range of nervous system disorders and…
