Mineral garnet discovered in Mars meteorite may reveal how the red planet evolved billions of years ago

An international team of scientists has identified a completely new type of rock from the red planet and, for the first time, discovered the mineral garnet in a Martian sample. The breakthrough offers a rare glimpse into Mars' ancient past and could help researchers piece together the planet's 4.5-billion-year geological history. The discovery was made by an international research team including James Darling, professor of Earth and planetary science, from the University of Portsmouth's School of the Environment and Life Sciences.

Quantum Hall effect gains a new twist in graphene moiré systems

Physicists have long been drawn to the nonlinear Hall effect: a subtle variant of the classical Hall effect, in which an electric voltage appears perpendicular to a current flowing through a material. Unlike its classical counterpart, the nonlinear version can arise even without breaking time-reversal symmetry, and its magnitude is tied to deep geometric properties of electron wave functions. So far, however, the behavior of the effect when a magnetic field is applied has remained poorly understood.

Moon Rabbit's pastry chef Susan Bae wins James Beard award

After three nominations, a local D.C. spot can now say it has a James Beard award-winning chef.   Susan Bae, the head pastry chef at Vietnamese fusion restaurant Moon Rabbit in downtown D.C., took home the gold with the title of Outstanding Pastry Chef or Baker. She was the only D.C. chef to take home an award from the prestigious ceremony in Chicago on Monday.   Bae called the nomination “surreal” in an interview with News4 earlier this year when she made it to the semifinals. “It is such humbling and honorable moment for all of us here at the restaurant,” Bae said.    Moon Rabbit offers an innovative take on traditional Vietnamese cuisine.

Dark matter cannot be ruled out as cause of gamma ray glow at the Milky Way's center, machine learning shows

An international research collaboration between the University of Vienna and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in the United States has used machine learning to re-examine one of the most debated signals in astrophysics. The so-called Galactic Center Excess (GCE), a faint, roughly spherical glow of gamma rays at the center of the Milky Way, has fascinated physicists for more than a decade. The new results suggest that an explanation in terms of dark matter cannot currently be ruled out. The results have now been published in the journal Physical Review Letters.
