Giant claw reveals the largest ever arthropod.

The fossil record has yielded various gigantic arthropods, in contrast to their diminutive proportions today. The recent discovery of a 46 cm long claw (chelicera) of the pterygotid eurypterid ('sea scorpion') Jaekelopterus rhenaniae, from the Early Devonian Willwerath Lagerstätte of Germany, reveals that this form attained a body length of approximately 2.5 m-almost half a metre longer than pr...

Everything's Bigger in Texas: "The Largest Math Proof Ever"

The Boolean Pythagorean Triples problem has been a long-standing open problem in Ramsey Theory: Can the set N = {1, 2, 3, ...} of natural numbers be partitioned into two parts, such that neither part contains a triple (a, b, c) with a^2 + b^2 = c^2 ? A prize for the solution was offered by Ron Graham decades ago. We show that such a partition is possible for the set of integers in [1,7824], but...

Radiation signatures in childhood thyroid cancers after the Chernobyl accident: Possible roles of radiation in carcinogenesis

After the Tokyo Electric Power Company Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident, cancer risk from low-dose radiation exposure has been deeply concerning. The linear no-threshold model is applied for the purpose of radiation protection, but it is a model based on the concept that ionizing radiation induces stochastic oncogenic alterations in the target cells. As the elucidation of the mech...
