Data may challenge and reshape current models of solar wind evolution. A recent study led by Dr. Michael Starkey of the Southwest Research Institute has delivered the first observational evidence from the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) Read More
Millisecond pulsar binaries may produce the excess 511 keV photons seen in the galaxy. These systems could expose hidden pulsars and even exoplanets. Many astrophysicists devote their work to tracing the origins of photons, since certain Read More
Salt giants and other striking formations in the Dead Sea reveal how evaporation and fluid dynamics shape Earth’s geological past and present. The Dead Sea represents a unique convergence of conditions: it lies at Read More
The lab is contributing to a broader initiative aimed at studying the diversity of oak gall wasps and their parasites. Researchers, including faculty from Binghamton University, State University of New York, have discovered two parasitic Read More
Scientists may have found the hiding place of missing cosmic sulfur—in icy space dust, bound in crown-shaped and chain-like molecules that escape detection. For years, scientists studying the chemistry of the cosmos have searched Read More
