  • Refreezing poles feasible and cheap, new study finds

    The poles are warming several times faster than the global average, causing record smashing heatwaves that were reported earlier this year in both the Arctic and Antarctic. Melting ice and collapsing glaciers at high latitudes would accelerate sea level rise around the planet. Fortunately, refreezing the poles by reducing incoming sunlight would be both feasible […]

    Most Precise Test of General Relativity’s Weak Equivalence Principle published

    In new studies published in Physical Review Letters and a special issue of IOP Publishing’s Classical and Quantum Gravity journal on September 14, a team of researchers present the most precise test yet of the Weak Equivalence Principle, a key component of the theory of general relativity. The report describes the final results from the […]

  • Residential exposure to petroleum refining could be related to strokes in the southern United States

    A new study has revealed that exposure to pollutants from petroleum refineries has a strong link to stroke rates across the Southern United States. The results were published today in IOP Publishing’s journal Environmental Research Letters. The southern United States (US) has a high concentration of petroleum production and refining (PPR). This process emits multiple […]
