Census Proposal Would Restrict Counting of Undocumented Immigrants and Data on Race, Sexual Orientation

A draft rule reviewed by WIRED outlines a proposal that would significantly alter how the United States Census Bureau collects and reports demographic data. The proposal would prevent the counting of undocumented immigrants in census tallies. Additionally, the draft rule would bar questions about race and sexual orientation from census

Study Suggests Heart Benefits May Require Far More Weekly Exercise Than Current Guidelines Recommend

Current public health guidelines recommend at least 150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity per week for cardiovascular health. However, a large-scale study is challenging whether this benchmark is sufficient for meaningful heart protection. The research found that while 150 weekly minutes of exercise offers some cardiovascular benefit, the reductions in

Gold Metacrystal Enables Quantum Light Sorting at Room Temperature

Most quantum technologies today require extreme cold—often near absolute zero—to maintain the fragile quantum states that carry information. This dependency on cryogenic refrigeration adds significant cost and complexity to quantum devices, limiting their practical deployment. A team of scientists has now demonstrated the first quantum material capable of

Scientists Discover Previously Invisible Micro-Vortices on the Sun's Surface

A team of scientists has uncovered a previously hidden layer of solar activity: incredibly small plasma whirlpools dotting the Sun's surface. These micro-vortices, some measuring just 20 kilometers in diameter, had escaped detection until now due to their diminutive scale. The discovery, reported in recent research published in

Sharpest Solar Image Ever Reveals Century-Old Plasma Vortex Prediction

A new solar photograph has set a record for the sharpest visible-light image of our star ever captured. The unprecedented resolution allowed researchers to observe, for the first time, minute plasma vortices on the Sun's surface—structures that had been predicted by theoretical models for more than a

California's AI Content Disclosure Law Takes Effect

California's recently enacted law regulating how artificial intelligence-generated content must be identified has officially taken effect. The legislation, promoted by Governor Gavin Newsom, introduces new disclosure requirements for content created using AI tools. The law establishes clear labeling requirements for AI-generated material, aiming to increase transparency for consumers

UCLA Scientists Guide Heat Like Light UCLA scientists have demonstrated that heat can propagate through a crystal in focused, wave-like patterns at room temperature, instead of spreading randomly as it typically does. This breakthrough could enable new methods for managing heat in advanced chips and quantum devices. Read more: UCLA
