Scientists Say Exposure May Far Exceed PFAS In A Nutshell Car engines and cargo ships release silicone-based chemicals called ...

Air pollution is often monitored using instruments that are accurate but can be bulky, costly, or difficult to reuse ...

New research suggests that relic black holes from before the big bang may still shape galaxies today. These black holes could ...

Microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) are everywhere. These tiny particles—formed by abrasion, fragmentation, and open burning of plastics—are found in the ocean, the Arctic, Himalayan glaciers, air, ...

A neglected force produced by neutrinos and other particles helps atomic physics measurements align with predictions of the ...

Scientists have made the first experimental observation of matter wave diffraction in a short-lived electron-positron atom.

Dark matter decays could be the missing ingredient explaining how giant black holes formed before the first stars ...

A new study suggests that failing to detect dark matter signals in some galaxies may not contradict evidence seen in our own.

For a few years, one of particle physics’ most unsettling numbers seemed to be pointing somewhere strange. The trouble ...

Generally speaking, black holes are regions of spacetime where matter is compressed into a tiny space. Dark matter, meanwhile ...

Tiny particles bubbling up from the tops of melting sea ice into the Arctic sky may be a key, understudied element of cloud formation in that climate-sensitive region.

Although plastic particles in the air are increasingly coming into focus, knowledge about their distribution and effects is still limited. Chemical analyses from Leipzig now provide details from ...
