Scientists reveal how cosignaling receptors dually regulate T cell activation via phase separation

Previous studies have shown that upon antigen stimulation, the T cell receptor (TCR) undergoes phase separation with the kinase Lck to mediate rapid T cell activation. However, the manner in which costimulating receptors regulate this process has remained unclear.

First direct observations reveal hydrogen dissolved in tiny gaps between metal atoms

University of Sydney researchers have made a breakthrough by directly observing hydrogen in the tiny spaces between the atoms in metal alloys. The world-first observation of hydrogen dissolving in these 'metal crystal lattices' offers fresh insights into why hydrogen can weaken metals and how more hydrogen-resistant materials might be developed.

How ranchers on Brazil's 'Dirty List' bypass forced labor safeguards by selling cattle through intermediaries

Brazil's "Dirty List," a public registry that names employers found to have violated anti-slavery laws, is a key component of the country's efforts to combat forced labor. Major meatpackers in Brazil signed sustainable sourcing commitments promising to not purchase cattle directly from ranchers on the Dirty List. But new research shows that ranchers have found ways around these restrictions, rerouting cattle through intermediaries and allowing cattle linked to forced labor to remain in domestic and international beef and leather supply chains.

European orbiter detects fresh hints of volcanic activity on Mars

New evidence from gas seeping above volcanic rifts suggests Mars is not geologically dead deep inside, but merely sleeping. Fresh fissures along the Alba Mons region hint at active spots under the surface, where gases from inside the planet may be making their way up to the surface.

Earth atmosphere emulators could enable faster and more accurate weather predictions

If you partitioned the entire Earth, from just below the surface to the top of the atmosphere, into 1-kilometer-square chunks, there would be billions of them. Now run each of those cells through a series of complex physics equations, and you can see how the entire Earth system interacts and evolves in detail, one step at a time.

A new route to calculating gluon production in proton–nucleus collisions

In the theoretical study of proton-nucleus collisions, the colliding projectiles can be described as streams of color charges moving along their respective trajectories. These color charges couple to gluons, which then produce the particles that are observed in the final state (gluons and quarks, which eventually produce hadrons).

In The Bedroom

Some time ago, I was scouting a woman’s house for filming, an “Anywhere USA” 2-story in the Valley. After taking pictures of the first floor, I asked if I could grab a few photos of the master bedroom, which we’d previously discussed – and suddenly, she seemed reluctant. People understandably are often uneasy about letting […] The post In The Bedroom appeared first on Nick Carr / Location Scout .
