A new study has revealed that male rhesus macaques have a unique sex trait that can be used to identify them. This trait, called the “coercive index,” is based on the macaque’s display of aggression towards other males in their group. Researchers found that males with a higher coercive index were more likely to succeed in mating attempts, suggesting that the trait could be used as an indicator of a male’s success in reproduction.

A new study has revealed the secret behind cicadas’ self-cleaning surfaces. Researchers have discovered that cicadas use a combination of waxes and oils to keep their bodies free of dirt and dust, and this process is known as “superhydrophobicity.” This means that cicadas can stay clean even in the harshest of environments. The researchers also found that the waxes and oils allow the cicadas to repel water, so that water droplets are spread evenly over the surface of the cicada’s body.

An eight-armed octopus-like pore discovered by researchers in Canada has been described as a “living fossil” and is the first of its kind to be discovered on Earth. The bizarre creature, known as a polychaete, was found living in a shallow marine environment in British Columbia and is thought to be over 500 million years old. The animal, dubbed Polychaetes armatus, is a cousin of the modern-day octopus and has the same number of arms, but its unique shape and structure sets it apart from its relatives.

A team of researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has developed a new on-chip laser technology that significantly reduces the amount of light that is lost or scattered when light is emitted from a laser. The new technology, called “self-injection locking,” is capable of reducing the linewidth of the laser to less than one-tenth of its original value. This breakthrough could lead to more efficient on-chip lasers that are more suitable for use in a range of applications, such as communications and sensing.

Astronomers have recently discovered a new type of transient, or short-lived, object in the distant universe. Dubbed a “luminous nuclear transient”, this new class of object emits a bright burst of radiation that can be seen from billions of light years away. Scientists believe that these transients are the result of extremely energetic events, such as the merger of two neutron stars or a rapidly spinning black hole consuming matter.
