Fresh, Direct Evidence for Tiny Drops of Quark-Gluon Plasma
Brookhaven National Laboratory

A new analysis of data from the PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) reveals fresh evidence that collisions of even very small nuclei with large ones might create tiny specks of a quark-gluon plasma (QGP). Scientists believe such a substance of free quarks and gluons, the building blocks of protons and neutrons, permeated the universe a fraction of a second after the Big Bang.

Scientists Identify New Epigenetic Approach to Target Colorectal Cancer
Johns Hopkins Medicine

A little-known mouse protein disrupts cancer-causing chemical changes to genes associated with human colorectal cancer cells and potentially could be used to treat solid tumors, according to a new study from researchers at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Songbirds Socialize on the Wing During Migration, New Study Says
College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

Evidence from over 18,300 hours of recorded flight calls suggests songbirds may “talk†to other species as they migrate, forming social connections and — just maybe — exchanging information about the journey.

DECam and Gemini South Discover Three Tiny ‘Stellar-Ghost-Town’ Galaxies
NSF's NOIRLab

By combining data from the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys and the Gemini South telescope, astronomers have investigated three ultra-faint dwarf galaxies that reside in a region of space isolated from the environmental influence of larger objects. The galaxies, located in the direction of NGC 300, were found to contain only very old stars, supporting the theory that events in the early Universe cut star formation short in the smallest galaxies.

Mediante la combinación de datos provenientes del telescopio Gemini Sur, ubicado en Chile, y de la investigación DECam Legacy Survey (DECaLS), que contiene un enorme catálogo de imágenes tomadas desde Cerro Tololo, un equipo de astrónomos descubrió tres galaxias enanas ultra tenues que sólo contienen estrellas muy viejas, reforzando la teoría sobre eventos ocurridos en el Universo primitivo que pudieron interrumpir la formación de estrellas en las galaxias más pequeñas. Las galaxias investigadas se encuentran en una región del espacio aislada de la influencia de otros objetos mayores.
