How species competition shapes trait diversity worldwide

Every ecosystem is shaped by billions of invisible battles: organisms competing for light, nutrients, space, or mates. These competitive interactions determine which species survive, how they evolve, and how vibrant and resilient ecosystems remain. Yet, despite decades of

Is immigration reform now possible?

President Trump has closed the border, making comprehensive immigration reform legislation possible, but it needs to be bipartisan and include a path to citizenship for Dreamers, a functioning immigrant-worker program, and restrictions on welfare benefits and easy citizenship.

Using duality to construct and classify new quantum phases

A team of theoretical researchers has found duality can unveil non-invertible symmetry protected topological phases, which can lead to researchers understanding more about the properties of these phases, and uncover new quantum phases. Their study is published in Physical
