Blue stands out as one of the rarest colors in nature, with almost no animals bearing true blue pigments. This fascinating rarity stems from a unique blend of evolution, chemistry, and physics. Unlike ...

Proteins catalyze life by changing shape when they interact with other molecules. The result is a muscle twitching, the perception of light, or a bit of energy extracted from food. The ability to ...

Photosynthesis, the natural process of converting sunlight energy into chemical energy and generating molecular oxygen, is a ...

The research is published in Nature Photonics ... have learnt how to combine these two methods to simultaneously shape light in space and time, bridging ultrafast optics and structured light ...

Instead of space-time’s three spatial dimensions and one of time, the physics of our world could be encoded into a set of odd geometrical shapes – and studying them may chart a new ...

A cross section of a chambered nautilus shell shows the newly defined shape ... cells could shed light on a type of cell expansion called tip growth, which is widely used in nature, such as ...

Once the researchers identified the new shapes, they began to see them all over the place—in nature, art and architecture. The results have now been published in the journal PNAS Nexus.

researchers report November 19 in Nature Communications. Heart cockles are small, walnut-sized bivalves best known for their distinctive shell shape. But a close look reveals the shells are ...
