Solar storms leave their mark on cosmic rays that reach Earth

A new study has revealed an unexpected link between solar storms and the flux of high-energy cosmic rays arriving at Earth. The findings, made using one of the world's largest cosmic ray detectors, could open up a new way to probe the magnetic structures inside solar storms—and p

Switching spin states in manganese ions with light opens new path for molecular memory

Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) have developed a new way to use molecules as tiny data storage devices with a new manganese-based material. Until now, this was possible only with iron-containing molecular materials, which require very low temperatures—ran

Synthetic chemical framework can switch magnetic spin states at near ambient temperatures

There is growing demand for smart materials that can change their physical properties in response to various external stimuli such as light, heat, pressure, magnetic fields and electric fields. One such physical property is the magnetic state of material complexes, which depends

Q&A: What happens when warming streams push young salmon beyond their limits

As climate change warms rivers across British Columbia, young salmon are facing increasing heat stress at vulnerable stages of their lives. Two studies from UBC's Pacific Salmon Ecology and Conservation Lab have found that younger fish cope with heat differently than older fish a

Some boreal forest species fail to recover even 100 years after clearcutting

Boreal forests are being clear-cut faster than some of their wildlife and plant species can recover, with a few failing to return even 100 years after harvesting, according to University of Alberta-led research.

England's public library collections are in danger of being hollowed out, new research war

England's public libraries are being quietly eroded, according to a major new study from the University of Sheffield. With physical collections shrinking and maintenance budgets falling in real terms, the research warns that libraries risk becoming unable to meet the diverse need

Disorder creates direction-dependent optics in compound semiconductors

An international research team has demonstrated that the intrinsic disorder of the compound semiconductor CuInSnS₄ can be exploited to influence its optical properties. While the atomic vibrations also sense the local disorder, their response is averaged over many different local

Tailored supplier strategies could cut emissions better than one-size-fits-all procurement

Companies hoping to reduce the environmental impact of their purchasing should tailor relationships with suppliers to different types of products rather than relying on a single procurement strategy, according to research published in the International Journal of Procurement Mana

How PFAS chain length influences environmental fate and water treatment

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), often referred to as "forever chemicals," are among the most persistent contaminants found in water systems worldwide. Their strong carbon-fluorine bonds make them highly resistant to degradation, allowing them to remain in the environm

School performance linked to youth criminal justice

Students whose performance at school declines relative to their peers are at a higher risk of contact with the criminal justice system, a new study by King's College London has found.

Country diary: This is as wild and remote as Britain gets – a trip to St Kilda | Nigel Bro

Outer Hebrides: It’s nearly 100 years since anyone lived on this hostile archipelago, though their ‘village’ remains – as does an astonishing wealth of wildlife Dawn on a deep-rolling ocean, and I am about to realise a dream. We’re 35 nautical miles west of the Outer Hebrides, on
