Recent observations by the “Extremely Metal-Poor Representatives Explored by the Subaru Survey” (EMPRESS) collaboration found normal deuterium levels but unexpectedly low helium-4, challenging current cosmological theories. This study used simulations with the PRyMordial package to test whether dark matter particles interacting with neutrinos in the early universe could explain the discrepancy.

The authors looked at the impact of different harvest and feeding treatments on Heterandria formosa over three generations as a model for changes in marine ecosystems.

The authors test the activity of two purified human alcohol detoxification enzymes, alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase.

In this paper, Thomas et al. introduce a new, affordable way to study characteristics of rocket motors using small-scale rocket motors.

Here, beginning from an interest in fractals, infinitely complex shapes. The authors investigated the fractal object that results from crumpling a sheet of paper. They determined its fractal dimension using continuous Chi-squared analysis, thereby testing and validating their model against the more conventional least squares analysis.

In this study, the authors test whether excess copper exposure has neurobehavioral effects on Hirudo verbana leeches.

The authors set out to develop an electrochemical device that would have efficient and sustained carbon dioxide capture.

In this study, the ability of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to limit the growth of an agricultural weed Cirsium arvense is tested. This has important implications for developing natural herbicides.

The authors analyzed the heat transfer of different containers in the microwave aiming to identify the most optimal material of container to reduce heating time.

Expanded polystyrene (EPS) is a plastic used to make food containers and packing materials that poses a threat to the environment. Mealworms can degrade EPS, but at a slow rate. Here, researchers assessed the impact of food waste compost and oats on the speed of EPS consumption by mealworms, superworms, and waxworms. A positive correlation was found between food waste compost supplementation and EPS consumption, especially by mealworms, indicating a potential industrial application.
