During England's Industrial Revolution, when the country's farming-based economy transformed into an industrial one between roughly 1760 and 1840, pollution, harsh working conditions, inadequate housing and limited access to sunlight drove disease. Rickets, in which the growing skeleton fails to properly mineralize, was commonplace among children. Traditionally, urbanization, latitude and socioeconomic status were considered the main drivers.
A factor that has largely been overlooked is climate.

A new route to calculating gluon production in proton–nucleus collisions
In the theoretical study of proton-nucleus collisions, the colliding projectiles can be described as streams of color charges moving along their respective trajectories. These color charges couple to gluons, which then produce the particles that are observed in the final state (g

Earth atmosphere emulators could enable faster and more accurate weather predictions
If you partitioned the entire Earth, from just below the surface to the top of the atmosphere, into 1-kilometer-square chunks, there would be billions of them. Now run each of those cells through a series of complex physics equations, and you can see how the entire Earth system i
