Gold Surpasses Its Melting Point Under Extreme Conditions
Researchers at SLAC have measured gold atoms at 19,000 Kelvin, surpassing previous theoretical limits without causing a catastrophe, challenging existing physics theories. Additionally, studies reveal distinct neural pathways for face recognition and gaze response, and a new gut-brain signaling pathway involving microbial proteins has been discovered, supporting the 'second brain' concept. Archaeological and biological research from the past week highlights significant advances across physics, neuroscience, and ancient history.
