Tech Xplore / High-entropy design achieves 3-fold increase in hydrogen production
While mixing materials typically leads to instability, there exists a phenomenon known as high entropy, where increasing compositional complexity can actually enhance stability. KAIST researchers have leveraged this principle ...
Phys.org / Artemis astronauts survey lunar surface on flyby, solar eclipse up next
The four astronauts carrying out NASA's first lunar flyby in more than half-a-century were sending back detailed observations of the moon after traveling farther from Earth than any human before.
Medical Xpress / Early signs of cognitive decline can be detected in middle-aged and older adults with problem alcohol use
Researchers have shown they can detect cognitive decline related to heavy alcohol use even before clinical dementia symptoms appear, according to a study published in Alcohol: Clinical and Experimental Research. The study's ...
Tech Xplore / New global model reveals hidden UV risk for next-generation solar panels
Engineers from UNSW have created a worldwide UV radiation map for solar panels, highlighting major differences in exposure depending on climate and mounting systems. Their new global study has revealed that ultraviolet (UV) ...
Phys.org / Reducing risks when modernizing packaging
Redesigns can cause serious harm to businesses. New research from Adelaide University explores what brands should consider when modernizing their packaging. "The study shows that successful redesign depends on increasing ...
Tech Xplore / Sonar on stock smartwatches leads to hand-tracking advancement
Imagine tapping your thumb and index finger together twice to skip to the next song or clicking around your laptop or desktop computer without a mouse, using discreet finger motions. New first-of-its-kind wearable technology ...
Tech Xplore / Intelligent monitoring pipe detects and predicts 3D soil settlement
Researchers have developed an intelligent monitoring pipe that combines optical sensing with machine learning algorithms to monitor and predict 3D soil settlement. With more development, the system could help provide early ...
Phys.org / Lunar crater named after Artemis commander's deceased wife
Artemis astronauts at the outer edge of human space travel had an emotional moment Monday as they proposed to name a crater in honor of the deceased wife of mission commander Reid Wiseman.
Phys.org / Matcha model makes drug candidate screening more than 30 times faster
Ligand Pro, founded by Skoltech professors and a Skoltech Ph.D. student, has presented Matcha, an AI-powered molecular docking model that performs virtual drug screening 30 times faster than the large co-folding models of ...
Tech Xplore / Explainability is a must for older adults to trust AI, study shows
Voice-activated, conversational artificial intelligence (AI) agents must provide clear explanations for their suggestions, or older adults aren't likely to trust them. That's one of the main findings from a study by AI Caring ...
Tech Xplore / Swapping one atom can cut heat flow through a molecule by half
Swapping a single atom can fine-tune the thermal conductance of single-molecule junctions without affecting their electrical conductance, according to a study led by University of Michigan Engineering with collaborators at ...
Medical Xpress / How far can automation and AI support psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy has always been a deeply human endeavor: a patient talking, a therapist listening and responding, and healing happening through words. But with the rapid rise of conversational artificial intelligence, particularly ...
