Phys.org / 'All-in-one,' single-atom could power both sides of water splitting
Green hydrogen production technology, which utilizes renewable energy to produce eco-friendly hydrogen without carbon emissions, is gaining attention as a core technology for addressing global warming. Green hydrogen is produced ...
Tech Xplore / Robotaxis are coming to London. The city's famed black cab drivers are skeptical
The Ford Mustang Mach-E cruises down a London road choked with traffic, using its onboard AI system to avoid jaywalkers and cyclists, and navigate roadwork as it drives to its destination.
Phys.org / A key out-of-Africa site just got older: Dating methods push 'Ubeidiya site back at least 1.9 million years
A new study provides a clearer timeline for one of the most significant prehistoric sites worldwide for the study of human evolution. By integrating three advanced dating techniques, researchers have determined that the site ...
Phys.org / 3D method can accurately measure gravity in wide binary stars, as demonstrated by pilot study
Since the third Gaia data release in 2022, wide binary stars with separation greater than several thousand astronomical units have been intensely investigated across the world, to probe the nature of gravity in the low acceleration ...
Phys.org / A survival strategy inside stressed cells: Ribosomes in pairs
Ribosomes, the cell's protein-making factories, consume large amounts of energy as they build the proteins that keep cells alive and functioning. When cells experience stress—such as lack of nutrients or sudden drops in ...
Phys.org / Scientists raise 300,000 surfclams offshore, proving open-ocean aquaculture can work
Rutgers researchers have made a discovery that could change the future of seafood farming in New Jersey. A study led by marine scientist Daphne Munroe has shown that Atlantic surfclams can be successfully farmed in the open ...
Medical Xpress / 'Kick it while it's down' approach to cancer treatment could improve cure rates
A new study provides hope that smarter timing of cancer treatments could improve cure rates. The study's Principal Investigator, Dr. Robert Noble, Senior Lecturer at the Department of Mathematics, City, St George's, University ...
Phys.org / Nanodevice produces continuous electricity from evaporation
A nanodevice developed at EPFL produces an autonomous, stable current from evaporating saltwater by using heat and light to control the movement of ions and electrons. Previously, researchers in the Laboratory of Nanoscience ...
Phys.org / REGALADE: The most extensive catalog of galaxies for modern astronomy
An international team of scientists led by the Institute of Cosmos Sciences at the University of Barcelona (ICCUB) and the Institute of Space Studies of Catalonia (IEEC) has presented REGALADE, an unprecedented catalog covering ...
Phys.org / 'Boomerang' earthquake simulations suggest ricocheting ruptures may be more common than previously thought
An earthquake typically sets off ruptures that ripple out from its underground origins. But on rare occasions, seismologists have observed quakes that reverse course, further shaking up areas that they passed through only ...
Medical Xpress / Scientists find a mechanism showing how exercise protects the brain
Researchers at UC San Francisco have discovered a mechanism that could explain how exercise improves cognition by shoring up the brain's protective barrier. With age, the network of blood vessels—called the blood–brain ...
Phys.org / Machine learning helps solve a central problem of quantum chemistry
By applying new methods of machine learning to quantum chemistry research, Heidelberg University scientists have made significant strides in computational chemistry. They have achieved a major breakthrough toward solving ...
