Earthquakes may explain how huge gold nuggets form in quartz rock
To test this idea, the team conducted experiments with quartz crystals placed in a solution containing gold and subjected to moderate pressures from an actuator.

Yet, despite their vigilance, microglia can sometimes engage in friendly fire, with a growing body of evidence suggesting they may be the engineers behind some of the brain’s most intractable conditions, such as Alzheimer’s disease and depression.
The device could be used to improve worker safety in physically demanding jobs, such as the construction industry, as well as to help sportspeople optimise their training, says John Rogers at Northwestern University in Illinois.

“The space station audio system is complex, allowing multiple spacecraft and modules to be interconnected, and it is common to experience noise and feedback.” The feedback has no technical impact on the crew or the craft’s operations, it added.
From reports of the killer whales' behavior towards sailboats, DĂaz LĂłpez believes the orcas are performing similar actions as they would during a hunt: repeatedly ramming the fast-moving rudder before trying to bite it.
The findings provide “a very strong indication that Alfvén waves can heat and accelerate the solar wind,” says Jean Perez, a plasma physicist at the Florida Institute of Technology in Melbourne who was not involved in the study.

Classical physics is an explanation of the nature and properties of matter and energy that relies on descriptions such as Newton’s laws of motion.
"The project will ensure a more reliable, clean, and affordable grid in New England by reducing transmission congestion and making valuable wind energy resources available when and where they are needed," said Jaramillo in the statement.
The classic condiment is useful for understanding how materials behave, not only when smeared on sandwiches or plopped in potato salads, but also when deployed in nuclear fusion experiments.
The universe has expanded greatly since it was born about 13.8 billion years ago in the Big Bang, and that means the light from early galaxies appears reddened by the time it reaches Earth, much as how an ambulance siren sounds lower-pitched to people as the vehicle drives away.
