Tech Xplore / Green hydrogen trade needs social safeguards alongside lower emissions, analysis finds
A study carried out by the EHU-University of the Basque Country concludes that a more sustainable green hydrogen economy requires a combination of technological improvements and policies that guarantee environmental benefits, ...
Phys.org / Rethinking how household income needs are assessed for welfare support
How much more income does a two-person household need than a person living alone? The answer is not simply twice as much. Two people need more food and other necessities, but they can also share expenses such as housing. ...
Tech Xplore / New anaerobic reactor co-digests biomanufacturing waste and wastewater for energy recovery
Researchers at AIST, in collaboration with researchers at the National Institute of Technology, Kagoshima College, have developed the Anaerobic Baffled Continuous Stirring (ABCS) reactor, a device capable of simultaneously ...
Tech Xplore / Humanoid robot learns to sprint and perform spin kicks using AI trained on human motion data
Humanoid robots, robotic systems with body shapes and limbs resembling those of humans, could potentially assist people with manual tasks in various real-world settings. So far, however, most of these robots can reliably ...
Phys.org / Do black holes grow along with the universe? A new study says yes
We know the universe is constantly expanding. We also know that gravitationally bound objects, such as solar systems and black holes, seem to be immune to that expansion. But a new paper by theoretical physicists Valerio ...
Phys.org / Report maps pathways for accelerating environmental solutions through positive tipping points
New research from The Earthshot Prize and the University of Exeter's Green Futures Solutions team, published today, reveals 51 environmental solutions that can trigger rapid, transformative change to repair our planet within ...
Phys.org / Stripped-down LSD reveals structural features linked to hallucinogenic and therapeutic effects
University of California, Davis, researchers have stripped down LSD to the base features responsible for its hallucinogenic and therapeutic effects.
Phys.org / Indonesia rescues six orangutans from fires in a week
Six orangutans, including two nursing infants, have been rescued from fires raging on Borneo in the past week, Indonesian authorities and rescuers said Thursday, bringing the total to 15 in a month.
Phys.org / Big supernova dataset challenges dark energy theory
The most comprehensive catalog of exploding white dwarf stars ever assembled has revealed new clues about dark energy, the mysterious force driving the universe's accelerating expansion. Researchers at The University of Queensland's ...
Medical Xpress / A single IV treatment retrains immune cells to fight autoimmune diseases in early trial
CAR T-cell therapy is an immune-reprogramming procedure that turns a patient's own immune cells into cancer-fighting specialists. The entire process is complex, but researchers have now found a faster way to achieve similar ...
Phys.org / Tiny 2D cracks creep through materials before triggering sudden fracture, experiments reveal
We have all seen something suddenly break: a phone screen cracks, a plastic object snaps or a piece of glass shatters. To our eyes, the failure seems to happen all at once. But what if the most important part of the break ...
Phys.org / White is more than a color: How nature inspired a new sustainable way to make white, water-repellent materials
Look closely at Hokusai's The Great Wave off Kanagawa, one of Japan's most iconic masterpieces. The brilliant white of the waves, snow on Mount Fuji and clouds above contain no white pigment. Instead, their whiteness comes ...
