Scientists Detected Signs of a Hidden Structure Inside Earth's Core
WEB4 days ago · A lost chapter in our planet's history. The team used a search algorithm to trawl through and match thousands of models of the inner core with observed data across many decades about how long seismic waves take to travel through Earth, gathered by the International Seismological Centre.
Scientists Detect Invisible Electric Field Around Earth For First Time
WEBAug 30, 2024 · An invisible, weak energy field wrapped around our planet Earth has finally been detected and measured. It's called the ambipolar field, an electric field first hypothesized more than 60 years ago, and its discovery will change the way we study and understand the behavior and evolution of our beautiful, ever-changing world.
One Stage of Sleep Seems to Be Critical For Reducing Dementia Risk
WEB1 day ago · This community-based cohort, who had no record of dementia at the time of the 2001-2003 study, and were over 60 years old in 2020, gave researchers a chance to look into the link between two factors over time by comparing the datasets from the two in-depth polysomnography sleep studies, and then monitoring for …
Fusion Breakthrough: 6 Minutes of Plasma Sets New Reactor Record
WEBMay 7, 2024 · For fusion to happen on Earth, the fuel needs to reach at least 50 million degrees Celsius. One of the main obstacles fusion power faces is that it takes a tremendous amount of energy to generate those extreme temperatures, and, so far, reactors can't sustain a plasma long enough to gain an energy surplus that could be put toward commercial use. So, for now, fusion reactors typically consume ...
