The science behind snowflakes

In a study that could enhance weather forecasting, Utah researchers discover that how snowflakes move is astonishingly predictable. Tim Garrett has devoted his scientific career to characterizing snowflakes, the protean…

New method paves the way for new antibiotics

A combination of two new substances effectively kills methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. “Antimicrobial resistance is a major problem, and being able to help solve it is really great,” says Amanda Holstad Singleton,…

Electronic pathways may enhance collective atomic vibrations’ magnetism

Materials with enhanced thermal conductivity are critical for the development of advanced devices to support applications in communications, clean energy and aerospace. But in order to engineer materials with this property,…

NASA’s Webb identifies tiniest free-floating brown dwarf

Brown dwarfs are objects that straddle the dividing line between stars and planets. They form like stars, growing dense enough to collapse under their own gravity, but they never become…
