A microscopic motor built from a screw-shaped helicene molecule that rotates like an ancient water pump powered by electricity. With this, researchers provide a prototype for a predictable mechanical torque at the atomic scale. @iitmadras nature.com/articles/d44151-0…

A dying star can turn into a white dwarf depending on whether or not it breaches the Chandrasekhar limit — 1.4 times the mass of the Sun. Researchers now model how 'Super-Chandrasekhar' white dwarfs evolve. @iiscbangalore nature.com/articles/d44151-0…

In glaciated upper Indus basin, CO₂ released by oxidising pyrite in rocks outweighs the CO₂ locked away by silicate weathering. These fast-eroding Himalayan catchments act as a net carbon source rather than carbon sink. @IISERPune @iitroorkee nature.com/articles/d44151-0…

A new tool can map a photon’s path from laser to detector, bringing quantum measure theory— a framework used in quantum foundations and the search of quantum gravity—into the lab, with potential applications in quantum measurement. nature.com/articles/d44151-0… @RRI_Bangalore

Fruit flies that evolved over 120 generations on low-protein diets reproduced and laid more eggs early in adult life. But these flies, especially females, were less likely to survive bacterial infections than normal flies. @AshokaUniv @evoimmunoimroze nature.com/articles/d44151-0…

Textile industries use large quantities of synthetic dyes that are difficult to remove from wastewater and can pose health risks. Researchers at the @IITGuwahati and @IITBHU_Varanasi find a potential and scalable eco-friendly solution. nature.com/articles/d44151-0…
