This week, the U.S. Mint released a quarter into nationwide circulation commemorating the late Carnegie Science astronomer Vera Rubin’s trailblazing contributions to our understanding of the universe.

Geochemical data from MESSENGER have revealed details of Mercury's surface composition, showing that it differs from the other rocky planets in the inner solar system. For example, the planet's ...

We report a synthetic route to mesoporous crystalline aluminosilica materials using high pressure and temperature. In the first step a large-pore periodic mesoporous aluminosilica SBA-15 material was ...

Algal blooms appear to be increasing on benthic substrates of naturally nutrient-poor lakes worldwide, yet common drivers across these systems remain elusive. The phenomenon has been notable in ...

Biodiversity affects many ecosystem functions and services, including carbon cycling and retention. While it is known that the efficiency of carbon capture and biomass production by ecological ...

Animals evolved two defense strategies to survive infections. Antagonistic strategies include immune resistance mechanisms that operate to kill invading pathogens. Cooperative or physiological ...

Gene expression data from isolated stele cells Data quality was examined using the signal distribution of Affymetrix built-in controls (Spike-in and hybridization controls) using Expression Console ...

Gene expression data from isolated stele cells after roots were treated with 140 mM NaCl for 1 hour Data quality was examined using the signal distribution of Affymetrix built-in controls (Spike-in ...

The Automated Planet Finder (APF) is a facility purpose-built for the discovery and characterization of extrasolar planets through high-cadence Doppler velocimetry of the reflex barycentric ...

Finding ways to routinely and reliably produce larger near-colorless and colorless single-crystal diamond needed for a variety of applications in science and technology is a major challenge. Microwave ...

While natural communities can contain hundreds of species, modern coexistence theory focuses primarily on species pairs. Alternatively, the structural stability approach considers the feasibility of ...
