Astronomers Find New Evidence for Volcanic Exomoon around WASP-49Ab
Using the ESPRESSO instrument on ESO’s Very Large Telescope and the HARPS instrument at ESO’s La Silla 3.6-m telescope, astronomers have detected a sodium cloud close to but slightly out of sync with the hot, Saturn-sized gas-giant exoplanet WASP-49Ab. This artist’s concept depicts a potential volcanic exomoon between WASP-49Ab (left) and its parent star. Image

The conspicuous symptoms of Parkinson's disease -- uncontrollable tremors, slowed down motions, and the feeling that one's feet are stuck to the ground -- all stem from the loss of neurons in a region of the brain that helps control movement. But many researchers believe that

Astrophysicists Find New Evidence for Standard Model of Cosmology
Astrophysicists from SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University have measured the X-ray emission from galaxy clusters, which revealed the distribution of matter within them. In turn, the data helped the scientists test the Lambda-CDM model — the prevailing theory of the structure and evolution of the Universe. This artist’s impression shows the evolution of

An analysis of contact-tracing data from the U.K. Health Security Agency (UKHSA) showed that transmission was spotted up to a maximum of 4 days before symptom onset, and that 53% of

This Evidence Upended Theories on the First Animal to Reach Land
Scientists still debate where exactly life on Earth began — some argue that deep-sea thermal vents are the best candidates, while others suggest that Darwin’s “warm little pond” theory is more likely. Still, it’s usually agreed that complex life arose in the oceans. But which animals first made that dangerous foray onto land, leaving the only…

More Evidence Links MI to Cognitive Decline Over Time
Patients who have had a myocardial infarction (MI) experience faster cognitive decline over time than immediately after the event, new research suggests. Although cognition in the acute phase after MI was not different than those without an MI in large observational cohorts, cognitive decline became significantly different over a median 6.5 years of follow-up. Dr…
