Sterile neutrinos ruled out by MicroBooNE, but mysterious excess remains unexplained

Physics World

Indeed, it would be the first particle outside of the Standard Model of particle physics to be discovered since the 1960s – and some physicists think sterile neutrinos could be a candidate for dark matter. The sterile neutrino would be even more difficult to detect because it would only interact with matter via gravity.

The Canadian Energy Regulator again paints a future that contradicts federal climate commitments and fails to chart a course for success

Enviromental Defense

Big and important decisions about Canada’s energy future will continue to be made in the dark. The agency is the Canada Energy Regulator, and its mandate is “advising and reporting on energy matters.” Canada’s oil and gas sector is by definition 0% decarbonized – fossil fuels are hydro carbons. Conclusions.

How nuclear information has been hidden – and brought to light

Physics World

In the context of the early Cold War , this definition of “Restricted Data” might seem sensible. Among other consequences, he writes, “the statute was open to the interpretation that nuclear weapons information is ‘born secret,’ no matter who or where the new information comes from”. Celebrating a century of nuclear isomers.

Green Hushing versus Confidentiality

Greenbuilding Law

The answer has depended upon your definition of sound. However, hosts of environmental interests, many unsophisticated, are piling on, criticizing ESG sensitive businesses as green hushing for saying too little or in the current vernacular, “going green but going dark.”. Some business matters are best and properly kept quiet.

‘Science is a measure of our ignorance: the more we know, the more we realize how little we know’

Frontiers

The first is a class of theories where matter fields and gravity live in a spacetime whose geometry changes with the probed scale, or are even fractal. The Euclid mission will hopefully unravel some of the secrets of dark energy in this decade. Can you tell us about your most recent research?

The Art of Affect: Creative Expression as Personal Resistance and Resilience

HumanNature

Though definitions vary widely, emotions may be understood as social and cultural expressions of personal, subjective “sociolinguistic fixing of the quality of an experience” (Mazzarella, 2020, p.292). Psychological resilience: A review and critique of definitions, concepts, and theory. Why creativity matters during a crisis.

The Rise and Fall of the “Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation”

Real Climate

Today, in a research article published in the same journal Science , my colleagues and I have provided what we consider to be the most definitive evidence yet that the AMO doesn’t actually exist. Dark grey region bounds 68% of the simulations while light grey region bounds 95% of the simulations. Background.
