Volcanic eruptions usually leave behind a trail of ash, disruption, and costly cleanup. In the Philippines, that ash is now ...

"By reproducing relativistic plasma conditions in the lab, we can measure processes that shape the evolution of cosmic jets and better understand the origin of magnetic fields in intergalactic space." ...

Watch an animation of a black hole shooting jets of particles through a "collapsing star at nearly the speed of light" and ...

An international team of scientists, led by the University of Oxford, has achieved a world-first by creating plasma "fireballs" using the Super Proton Synchrotron accelerator at CERN, Geneva, to study ...

Physicians rely on nuclear medicine scans, like SPECT scans, to watch the heart pump, track blood flow and detect diseases hidden deep inside the body. But today's scanners depend on expensive ...

Solar physicists say they have found a key source of intense gamma rays unleashed when Earth's nearest star produces its most violent eruptions. In findings published in Nature Astronomy, scientists ...

NASA supercomputer simulations reveal X-ray and gamma-ray signals emitted in the final milliseconds before neutron star mergers, providing insights for future observatories and gravitational-wave ...

Heat-resilient biofertilizers could help crops cope with rising temperatures but engineering them has been slow and uncertain. A new study at the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology ...

An X8.2 class solar flare flashes in the edge of the Sun on Sept. 10, 2017. This image was captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory and shows a blend of light from the 171 and 304 angstrom ...
