Two distinct exciton states observed in 2H stacked bilayer molybdenum diselenide
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have proved to be a promising platform for studying exotic quasiparticles, such as excitons. Excitons are bound states that emerge when an electron in a material...

The words of health care providers during prenatal care visits can influence how parents see their children
Pregnancy is often a unique experience, marked by anticipation and mental representations of what will happen after a baby's birth. Understanding how people's experiences while pregnant influence...
Study maps three decades of white LED progress and key innovation drivers
White light-emitting diodes (LEDs), the semiconductor devices underpinning the functioning of countless lighting technologies on the market today, were first released to the public in 1996....
Whole-body teleoperation system allows robots to perform coordinated tasks with human-like dexterity
The ability to remotely control robots in real-time, also known as teleoperation, could be useful for a broad range of real-world applications. In recent years, some engineers have been trying to...
Psilocybin better preserves depressed patients’ emotional response to music than standard drug, study finds
Depression is among the most widespread mental health disorders worldwide, typically characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, a lack of interest in daily activities and dysregulated sleep...
Algorithm based on LLMs doubles lossless data compression rates
People store large quantities of data in their electronic devices and transfer some of this data to others, whether for professional or personal reasons. Data compression methods are thus of the...
Distinct neuron populations in the hypothalamus encode states associated with predator-related threats
The ability to detect imminent threats and execute behaviors aimed at protecting oneself, such as hiding, running away or defending oneself, is central to the survival of most animal species. A...
Results of the HAYSTAC Phase II search for dark matter axions
Axions, hypothetical subatomic particles that were first proposed by theoretical physicists in the late 1970s, remain among the most promising dark matter candidates. Physics theories suggest that...
Study uncovers gene networks driving the development of distinct neuron subtypes in the human cerebral cortex
The human brain is known to contain a wide range of cell types, which have different roles and functions. The processes via which cells in the brain, particularly its outermost layer (i.e., the...
