This week, the U.S. Mint released a quarter into nationwide circulation commemorating the late Carnegie Science astronomer Vera Rubin’s trailblazing contributions to our understanding of the universe.

The top-tier instrumentation at Carnegie’s Earth and Planets Laboratory (EPL) makes it one of the best places in the world to study materials under pressure. Jill Yang is the high-pressure research ...

Gene expression data from isolated stele cells after roots were treated with 140 mM NaCl for 1 hour Data quality was examined using the signal distribution of Affymetrix built-in controls (Spike-in ...

Finding ways to routinely and reliably produce larger near-colorless and colorless single-crystal diamond needed for a variety of applications in science and technology is a major challenge. Microwave ...

The influential concept of the rare biosphere in microbial ecology has underscored the importance of taxa occurring at low abundances yet potentially playing key roles in communities and ecosystems.

The potential of enhanced agricultural management practices to drive sustainability is rarely quantified at grassroots level. Here we analyse nitrogen use and loss in Chinese cropland, drawing from ...

Geochemical data from MESSENGER have revealed details of Mercury's surface composition, showing that it differs from the other rocky planets in the inner solar system. For example, the planet's ...

We report a synthetic route to mesoporous crystalline aluminosilica materials using high pressure and temperature. In the first step a large-pore periodic mesoporous aluminosilica SBA-15 material was ...

In the modern ocean, U reduction and incorporation into anoxic sediments imparts a large isotopic fractionation of approximately vertical bar 0.6 parts per thousand that shifts the seawater delta ...

Biodiversity affects many ecosystem functions and services, including carbon cycling and retention. While it is known that the efficiency of carbon capture and biomass production by ecological ...

We present a high-resolution view of bubbles within the Phantom Galaxy (NGC 628), a nearby (similar to 10 Mpc), star-forming (similar to 2 M (circle dot) yr(-1)), face-on (i similar to 9 degrees) ...

We present a luminosity function for H alpha emission from galaxies at redshifts between 0.7 and 1.9 based on slitless spectroscopy with the near-infrared camera and multiobject spectrometer on the ...
