New study by international team of scientists reveals an evolving, magnetized environment and surprising source location for deep-space fast radio bursts – observations that defy current understanding.

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-long cosmic explosions that each produce the energy equivalent to the sun's annual output. More than 15 years after the deep-space pulses of electromagnetic radio waves were first discovered, their perplexing nature continues to surprise scientists—and newly published research only deepens the mystery surrounding them.

Current regulations of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes require new species to be grown in a lab and distributed as pure and viable cultures. To prove it, you have to have more than one specimen. A team of scientists presented a new system, the SeqCode, and a corresponding registration portal in an article published in the journal Nature Microbiology.

There's something very peculiar about Earth, aside from all the organisms crawling all over it. It's our star, the Sun, that's weird: It's a yellow dwarf.

Experts estimate that the Inflation Reduction Act will create upwards of nine million jobs, spread out across a variety of roles and sectors

The Big Bang theory is currently the most popular model we have for the birth of our universe. Observations on the expanding universe, as well as observations of Cosmic background radiation, lingering electromagnetic radiation from the Big Bang, have helped back this theory. However, rumors have spread on the internet that the newly released images from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) somehow suggest the big bang is wrong. We find this claim to be mostly false. Although the spectacular images from JWST may have surprised scientists in how they might change theories on galaxy formation, they by no means negate the Big Bang theory.

UNLV physics is on the cutting edge of energy research. The groundbreaking work they are doing now could one day help solve the nation’s energy crisis. The Nevada Extreme Conditions Lab at the school is moving the ball forward, getting closer every day to creating a way to send energy from one point to another with no loss of power.
