Vita dvärgar är en typ av stjärnor som en gång i tiden varit normalstora men som sedan kollapsat efter att ha gjort slut på sitt kärnbränsle. Dessa interstellära särlingar har historiskt varit svåra att studera. Men i en färsk studie kan ett forskarlag avslöja nya uppgifter om de gåtfulla småstjärnornas hastigheter och rörelsemönster. Vita dvärgar har en radie som motsvarar cirka 1 procent av sole

Biologer vid Lunds universitet kan nu presentera en lösning på en genetisk gåta som länge förbryllat världens ödleforskare. Det handlar om arten brun anolis där honorna antingen kan ha ett diamantliknande eller ett v-format ryggmönster. Nu kan forskarna visa att skillnaden beror på mutationer i en enda gen. Zebran har sina ränder, nyckelpigan sina prickar och huggormen sitt karaktäristiska sicksac

Ett internationellt forskarlag har hittat två tidigare okända beteenden hos svartseglare. Det visar sig att den nordamerikanska fågelarten inte landar under sin drygt åtta månader långa flyttning. Men också att svartseglaren, i samband med fullmåne, stiger till extrema höjder där den av allt att döma fångar insekter i skenet från månljuset. Svartseglaren är en fågelart med kraftig kropp och långa

Sedan 2004 har stora regioner i Nordamerika och Eurasien upplevt en oförväntad nedkylning under höstarna. Forskare har länge trott att den skulle leda till minskade nettoutsläpp av koldioxid från landekosystemen. Men en omfattande studie visar nu att ekosystemen i stället har ökat sina utsläpp. Den senaste rapporten från Förenta nationernas klimatpanel (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, I
