Could the bottlenose dolphin be the first non-human species to have its language decoded? tephen Frink/Getty Images; Shutterstock Sophie Cohen-Bodénès knew she was onto something when she saw the cuttlefish extend two arms upwards while twisting its six others together. It was making what she calls the “up” sign – and, intriguingly, it was throwing…
Navigating your cybersecurity platform should be easy. That is why we have reimagined the way users access Qualys applications with the brand-new Qualys App Picker, a streamlined, intuitive navigation panel designed to make access faster, easier, and smarter in the Qualys Enterprise TruRisk™ Platform! Whether you’re managing vulnerabilities through VMDR, ensuring file integrity using FIM,…
The research, published in the academic journal Nature, represents an essential step in quantum computing and demonstrates its potential by directly simulating fundamental interactions with Google’s quantum processor. In the future, researchers could use this approach to gain deeper insights into particle physics, quantum materials, and even the nature of space and time itself. The…
The ATLAS Collaboration finds evidence of Higgs-boson decays to muons and improves sensitivity to Higgs-boson decays to a Z boson and a photon. Since the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, physicists have made major strides in exploring its properties. Does that mean the subject is done and dusted? Far from it! In new…
Remarkable fossils found in North Greenland have helped researchers solve a 500-million-year-old puzzle surrounding squid-like ancestors. It was previously thought ancient organisms called nectocaridids, which bear a resemblance to squid, were a type of cephalopod – marine molluscs with tentacles and a prominent head. But scientists, co-led by the University of Bristol, have now shown…
Small businesses may expect that the recent tariffs levied by President Trump will drive up the price of multiple imported goods from various countries. But less expected is how these trade policies may ripple through employee health benefits. Most recently, President Trump indicated that the administration will phase in tariffs on pharmaceutical imports—starting with a…
Researchers from the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, have created a novel pathway into the study of the elusive quantum states in superconducting vortices. The existence of these was flouted in the 1960s, but has remained very difficult to verify directly because those states are squeezed into energy scales smaller than one can typically…
On July 11, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) released a letter to states notifying them that going forward CMS does not anticipate approving new 1115 demonstration workforce initiatives or extending existing waivers. This is the latest action by the second Trump administration reversing major Biden administration waiver priorities. 1115 waivers generally reflect priorities…
Researchers have uncovered the magnetic properties and underlying mechanisms of a novel magnet using advanced optical techniques. Their study focused on an organic crystal believed to be a promising candidate for an “altermagnet”- a recently proposed third class of magnetic materials. Unlike conventional ferromagnets and antiferromagnets, altermagnets exhibit unique magnetic behavior. Details of their breakthrough…
