Phys.org / Elastic strain engineering boosts green hydrogen production with affordable catalysts
Researchers from IMDEA Materials Institute have demonstrated improved and more affordable catalytic materials used to produce green hydrogen.
Phys.org / Saturday Citations: Super-Earths; superagers; how we grieve pets
This week, a new analysis of Jupiter's atmosphere estimated that the gas giant has 1.5 times more oxygen than the sun. Researchers in Brazil identified a protein that allows pancreatic cancer to infiltrate nerves and spread ...
Phys.org / Study separates human and hydrological causes of nitrogen loss in Mississippi Basin
Scientists at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign can now differentiate between human-derived and hydrological contributions of riverine nitrogen pollution in the Upper Mississippi River Basin. The advancement, published ...
Phys.org / Higher farm productivity linked to slower growth in agricultural emissions
A new study shows that increasing production on farms and reducing emissions can go hand-in-hand, with researchers finding that improved farm productivity has been the driving force in keeping greenhouse gas emissions from ...
Phys.org / Imaging technique captures ultrafast electron and atom dynamics in chemical reactions
During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical products. This process entails the movement of both electrons (i.e., negatively charged particles) and ...
Phys.org / New map reveals a rugged world beneath the Antarctic ice sheet
Scientists have discovered there is more to Antarctica than meets the eye. A new map of the landscape beneath the frozen continent's ice sheet has revealed a previously hidden world of mountains, deep canyons and rugged hills ...
Phys.org / Understanding the unusual chirality-driven anomalous Hall effect via scattering theory
A new framework for understanding the nonmonotonic temperature dependence and sign reversal of the chirality-related anomalous Hall effect in highly conductive metals has been developed by scientists at Science Tokyo. This ...
Phys.org / Scientists transform enigmatic cell structures into devices for recording RNA activity
Scientists can peer into cells to get a limited view of their activity using microscopes and other tools. However, cells and the molecular events within them are dynamic, and developmental processes, disease progression and ...
Phys.org / New temperature record challenges extreme high-latitude warmth paradigm
Reliable predictions of how the Earth's climate will respond as atmospheric carbon dioxide levels increase are based on climate models. These models, in turn, are based on data from past geological times in which the CO2 ...
Phys.org / Neutralizing extracellular electron transport disarms antibiotic-resistant bacteria, restores healing in chronic wounds
An international team of scientists, led by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), has discovered a new method that could speed up the healing of chronic wounds infected by antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Phys.org / Temperature shifts alter honeybee behavior but leave native bees unchanged
Research from Monash University explores how rising temperatures and growing urban environments can affect behavior in native Australian bees and the European honeybee.
Phys.org / Tiger sharks gather to mate during Maui's whale season, finds research
A team of shark researchers from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa has solved a long-standing mystery, identifying the first-ever documented mating hub for tiger sharks.
