Measurements from the LHCb collaboration expand scientific understanding of how individual quarks assemble to form observable matter. Research from the Large Hadron Collider has unveiled that quarks, the primary components of visible matter, form composite particles differently based on environmental conditions. This discovery challenges the previously held belief that baryon production from quarks is uniform, pointing to a need for revised theoretical models to explain matter formation under varying densities.

A breakthrough now makes it possible to assemble the genomes of extinct species. A team of scientists from Baylor College of Medicine, the University of Copenhagen, and the Centre Nacional d’Anàlisi Genòmica and Centre for Genomic Regulation have discovered fossils of ancient chromosomes in the remains of a woolly mammoth that died 52,000 years ago. These fossils preserve the structure of the ancient chromosomes at a nanometer scale – billionths of a meter. The discovery is featured on the cover of Cell.

UTEP study reveals that both nanoplastics and forever chemicals modify crucial proteins in breast milk and infant formulas. Researchers at The University of Texas at El Paso have achieved important advancements in the study of nanoplastics and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), also referred to as forever chemicals. Their research demonstrates how these compounds can modify the structure and function of biomolecules. Specifically, the team found that these substances can change proteins present in human breast milk and infant formulas, which could potentially lead to developmental problems later on.

With an assassination attempt on Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024, the U.S. experienced another violent episode in its increasingly polarized politics. Former President Trump, who’s about to formally become the GOP nominee for president in the 2024 election, survived the attempted assassination when, initial reports said, a bullet grazed his ear . But one rally attendee was killed , more spectators were injured and the suspected gunman is also dead. The Conversation’s politics editor, Naomi Schalit, spoke with University of Massachusetts, Lowell, scholar Arie Perliger after the event. Perliger offered insight from his study of political violence and assassinations. Given the stark political polarization in the U.S., Perliger said, “it’s not a surprise that eventually people engage in violence.”

Elusive temporary star described in historical documents recreated using new computer model, shows it may have recently started generating stellar winds. A supernova remnant from 1181, resulting from two colliding white dwarfs, was analyzed using historical records and modern astronomy. The discovery in the constellation Cassiopeia reveals a complex structure with new stellar winds, possibly indicating a reignition of the remnant star. This interdisciplinary approach provides deeper insights into the dynamics of stellar phenomena.
