:: Radio Atlantic: Becoming White in AmericaIn her new book Futureface , Alex Wagner writes that “immigration raises into relief some of our most basic existential questions: Who am I? Where do I belong? And in that way, it’s inextricably tied to an exploration of American identity.” In the book, Alex explores her own American identity – daughter of a Burmese immigrant mother and a small-town Irish Catholic father – and asks how true the s

:: Radio Atlantic: The Syria Disaster, Seven Years InLong the crossroads of civilizations, Syria has now spent seven years as the proxy warzone of great powers. With over half a million dead and millions more displaced, the conflict is now “arguably the world’s largest humanitarian disaster since World War II,” writes Andrew Tabler in The Atlantic . “The Syrian Civil War now threatens to morph into the Syria War—a regional conflagration which seems
:: Radio receiver ‘listens’ for dark matter particlesResearchers have developed a way to “listen” for the signs of dark matter axions, the particles that may make up dark matter. “We’ve built a radio that looks for a radio station, but we don’t know its frequency.” Forty years ago, scientists theorized a new kind of low-mass particle that could solve one of the enduring mysteries of nature: what dark matter is made of. Now a new chapter in the sear
:: Radio telescope records a rare 'glitch' in a pulsar's regular pulsing beatPulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars and sometimes they abruptly increase their rotation rate. This sudden change of spin rate is called a "glitch" and I was part of a team that recorded one happening in the Vela Pulsar, with the results published today in Nature.

:: Rainbows are (literally) in the eye of the beholderScience Magical phenomena are even cooler when you understand the science behind them. Rainbows are perhaps the closest things we have to real magic. They appear like beautiful, ghostly apparitions in the sky just as the rain clears and the sun peeks out…

:: Ramp compression of iron provides insight into core conditions of large rocky exoplanetsIn a paper published today by Nature Astronomy, a team of researchers from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), Princeton University, Johns Hopkins University and the University of Rochester have provided the first experimentally based mass-radius relationship for a hypothetical pure iron planet at super-Earth core conditions.

:: Rampage Is a Big, Noisy NothingIt’s telling that two of Rampage ’s big set pieces end with a gigantic albino gorilla laughing and giving the finger straight into the camera. It’s certainly the most apt representation of the viewing experience for this Dwayne Johnson–starring creature feature, an epic disaster movie that sees a mutated gorilla, crocodile, and wolf tear apart downtown Chicago. I went in looking for some good che
