The supermassive black holes at the centres of galaxies may capture smaller black holes. Not only does this prove a place for the small black holes to grow, it also makes the supermassive ones look even bigger and brighter The supermassive black holes at the centres of galaxies may capture smaller black holes. Not only …
Supermassive black holes may provide a nursery for mini ones to grow Read More »

The technology revolution and development of new renewable energy resources is driving demand for lithium to new heights, but it is not a common mineral. Scientists say they have found lithium in an unexpected place; fool’s gold, or pyrite, deposits. The technology revolution and development of new renewable energy resources is driving demand for lithium …
Sport junkie or couch potato? Always on time or often late? The animal kingdom, too, is home to a range of personalities, each with its own lifestyle. Biologists report on a surprising discovery: even simple marine polychaete worms shape their day-to-day lives on the basis of highly individual rhythms. This diversity is of interest not …
Even the simplest marine organisms tend to be individualistic Read More »
An international collaboration of researchers has achieved a significant breakthrough in quantum technology, with the successful demonstration of quantum interference among several single photons using a novel resource-efficient platform. The work represents a notable advancement in optical quantum computing that paves the way for more scalable quantum technologies. An international collaboration of researchers has achieved …
