Researchers have demonstrated that precisely controlling the phase of superconductivity in nickelate materials through nano-patterning can induce unusual metallic behavior and reverse the material’s directional superconducting properties.
Koo Yun-cheol, South Korea’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance (a man who likely owns a calculator with feelings), solemnly swore to “review” how the government manages seized crypto. Because nothing says “trust us” like a bureaucratic promise whispered into the void.
The Evil Dead star said he’s been diagnosed with “a type of cancer that’s ‘treatable’ not ‘curable.'”
More than ten years after sharing his path to sobriety, the former Harry Potter star says he now focuses on regular exercise instead of drinking.
Besides disagreeing with the other contestants on where to draw the line, the K-pop star also worried about how American viewers would perceive him on his first reality show.
The first part of the series ended in 2007, and was immediately followed by Naruto: Shippuden. This continuation picks up with the main character two and a half years later, facing even tougher battles. While it’s hard to find an anime quite as good as Naruto, many others capture a similar feeling. Comic Book recently highlighted 10 shows with that same spirit, but there are plenty more to explore.
![Silicon’s transition between the Si-XIII phase and its more stable, metastable counterparts-including BC8, R8, and the [latex]d_c[/latex] and [latex]h_d[/latex] phases-is not singular, but rather unfolds along multiple minimum energy pathways, as determined by Solid State Nudged Elastic Band calculations, suggesting a complex energy landscape governing phase transformations in this foundational material.](https://arxiv.org/html/2602.24248v1/2602.24248v1/x4.png)
After decades of pursuit, researchers have finally determined the precise atomic structure of the elusive Si-XIII phase of silicon, resolving a long-standing challenge in materials science.
It’s common for series to start strong or finish well, but sometimes lose steam in the middle. That doesn’t necessarily make them bad, just inconsistent. But for readers looking for a consistently excellent series, there are a few gems that begin with incredible first books and only get better from there. From the author of The Will of the Many‘s debut to a highly-regarded grimdark trilogy, these series consistently deliver.
Now that Fire Force has finished, it’s a great moment to remake Soul Eater. Fans of the manga know the ending of Fire Force cleverly connects to the world and story of Soul Eater, and once anime viewers catch on, they’ll likely want more of Maka’s adventures. Since anime reboots are currently popular, a Soul Eater remake is definitely possible.
The movie playfully pokes fun at recent horror films like Sinners and the 2018 Halloween, and fans are hoping the full movie is just as funny as this early look suggests. But beyond the humor, people are also excited about the potential of this sequel, which is scheduled for release on June 12, 2026.
