Phys.org / A molecular switch for green hydrogen: Catalyst changes function based on how it's assembled
Hydrogen production through water electrolysis is a cornerstone of the clean energy transition, but it relies on efficient and stable catalysts that work under acidic conditions—currently dominated by precious metals like ...
Phys.org / Promising new superconducting material discovered with the help of AI
Tohoku University and Fujitsu Limited have successfully used AI to derive new insights into the superconductivity mechanism of a new superconducting material.
Medical Xpress / Indoor tanning makes youthful skin much older on a genetic level
Tanning bed users are known to have a higher risk of skin cancer, but for the first time researchers have found that young indoor tanners undergo genetic changes that can lead to more mutations in their skin cells than people ...
Tech Xplore / For computational devices, talk isn't cheap: Research reveals unavoidable energy costs across all communication channels
Every task we perform on a computer—whether number crunching, watching a video, or typing out an article—requires different components of the machine to interact with one another. "Communication is massively crucial for ...
Medical Xpress / Humans could have as many as 33 senses
Stuck in front of our screens all day, we often ignore our senses beyond sound and vision. And yet they are always at work. When we're more alert, we feel the rough and smooth surfaces of objects, the stiffness in our shoulders, ...
Tech Xplore / Anode-free battery can double electric vehicle driving range
Could an electric vehicle travel from Seoul to Busan and back on a single charge? Could drivers stop worrying about battery performance even in winter? A Korean research team has taken a major step toward answering these ...
Medical Xpress / Key enzyme controls both weight gain and cholesterol levels in animal models
Obesity is a global epidemic and a major cause of morbidity and mortality because it increases the risk for comorbidities, including heart disease and fatty liver disease (MASLD). Rates of these disorders have risen as the ...
Tech Xplore / Lowering barriers to explainable AI: Control technique for LLMs reduces resource demands by over 90%
Large language models (LLMs) such as GPT and Llama are driving exceptional innovations in AI, but research aimed at improving their explainability and reliability is constrained by massive resource requirements for examining ...
Medical Xpress / New study suggests best way to stop taking antidepressants
The best way for people with depression to stop taking antidepressants once their condition improves is to slowly taper off the medication while also receiving psychological support, new research suggested Thursday.
Phys.org / Ultrafast fluorescence pulse technique enables imaging of individual trapped atoms
Researchers at the ArQuS Laboratory of the University of Trieste (Italy) and the National Institute of Optics of the Italian National Research Council (CNR-INO) have achieved the first imaging of individual trapped cold atoms ...
Phys.org / Rare Hall effect reveals design pathways for advanced spintronic materials
Scientists at Ames National Laboratory, in collaboration with Indranil Das's group at the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics (India), have found a surprising electronic feature in transitional metal-based compounds that could ...
Medical Xpress / Social media, not gaming, tied to rising attention problems in teens, new study finds
The digital revolution has become a vast, unplanned experiment—and children are its most exposed participants. As ADHD diagnoses rise around the world, a key question has emerged: could the growing use of digital devices ...
