How dolphins swim fast, squeezing diamonds, smart fabric monitors health & more. Plus: SciCom Coffee speaker

A research team found that large current swirls generated by dolphin kicks power their fast swimming. The finding could guide the design of energy-efficient underwater robots and technologies for controlling turbulence.

Iron-rich Moon

Ehime University

The lunar upper mantle is more enriched in iron than previous estimates, according to a new study, which also suggests that the early Moon’s volcanism and internal dynamics was more active.

Theia’s impact

Squeezing diamonds

Singapore University of Technology and Design

Diamond defects are increasingly used in quantum technologies. Researchers discovered a new way to tune their quantum properties, paving the way for ultra-sensitive sensors.

Sweat the small stuff

Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST)

A smart fabric-based sensor can collect sweat automatically and monitor health by analysing multiple biosignals, such as electrolytes, metabolites, and movement, all at once.

No pumps, no batteries

Muonic molecules

Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe (Kavli IPMU)

For the first time, scientists achieved the world's first direct observation of muonic molecules in resonance states, potentially guiding future research on nuclear fusion and sustainable energy.
