This picture shows a very famous outcrop where nearly horizontal black and white layers are observed. The BIC made of layers of igneous rock in a basin shape, formed over a period of about 1 million years, after which it seems to have barely changed.

The brain of a 7-day-old fruit fly with Tau expressed in a neuronal circuit used by the fly in olfactory memory. The green outlines the neurons, which are starting to swell and degenerate due to the Tau protein. The red shows where Tau is building up in clusters along the neurons, starting to form the clumps that eventually become rope-like fibrils.

Scientists were recently surprised to find that the natural community of zooplankton — tiny, aquatic animals known to graze on bacteria — present in freshwater and saltwater do not clean water that is contaminated with fecal microorganisms. Pictured: One of the zooplankton found in the water samples is the adult copepod, a miniature crustacean that is about the size of the period at the end of this sentence.

Zooplankton go “Eew!” to cleaning feces-contaminated water

Caltech postdoctoral scholar Simon Mahler, a co-lead author of the new paper, is shown here placing the CSOS device on the head of graduate student Yu Xi Huang, the other co-lead author of the paper. The new device is affordable and compact, making it ideal for stroke assessment in a clinical setting.

The image shows the predicted flux of antihelium-3 produced from dark matter (WIMPs) that annihilate producing these antinuclei. Each color represents the prediction for a different mass of dark matter, as shown in the legend. t The bands are almost touching the AMS-02 sensitivity, which means that in some optimistic cases, WIMPs can explain this discrepancy.
