| Real reason turtles have shells: Burrowing tool Posted: 15 Jul 2016 02:13 PM PDT Scientists have discovered the real reason turtles have shells. While many thought turtle shells were for protection, new findings show that the shells were actually for digging underground to escape the harsh South African environment where these early proto turtles lived. |
| Discovery of new strains of the HTLV-4 virus in hunters bitten by gorillas in Gabon Posted: 13 Jul 2016 09:15 AM PDT Scientists have identified two new strains of the HTLV-4 virus in two hunters who were bitten by gorillas in Gabon. These findings support the notion that gorillas represent a major source of infectious agents that can be passed on to humans. |
| Physicists blur the line between classical and quantum physics by connecting chaos and entanglement Posted: 12 Jul 2016 10:01 AM PDT Using a small quantum system consisting of three superconducting qubits, researchers have uncovered a link between aspects of classical and quantum physics thought to be unrelated: classical chaos and quantum entanglement. Their findings suggest that it would be possible to use controllable quantum systems to investigate certain fundamental aspects of nature. |
