Scientists have successfully trapped atoms of krypton (Kr), a noble gas, inside a carbon nanotube to form a one-dimensional gas. Scientists used advanced transmission electron microscopy (TEM) methods to capture the moment when Kr atoms joined together, one by one, inside a 'nano test tube' container with diameter half a million times smaller than the width of a human hair.
No matter how well children are prepared for kindergarten, their transition to the classroom during the first few months plays a key role in their success, a new study suggests.
A research team has achieved remarkable advancements in the stability and efficiency of perovskite solar cells.
A research team has developed a novel catalyst for the high-efficiency and stable production of high-purity green hydrogen.
A team of scientists has demonstrated that communication among memory-coding neurons -- nerve cells in the brain responsible for maintaining working memory -- is disrupted with aging and that this can begin in middle age.
A new study finds that fruits and vegetables grown in urban farms and gardens have a carbon footprint that is, on average, six times greater than conventionally grown produce.
Scientists have revealed that low-frequency ultrasound influences blood parameters. The findings suggest that ultrasound's effect on haemoglobin can improve oxygen's transfer from the lungs to bodily tissues. The research was undertaken on 300 blood samples collected from 42 pulmonary patients.
Researchers discover biomarker that could indicate dementia much earlier than its onset.
Scientists working on biological design should focus on the idiosyncrasies of biological systems over optimization, according to new research.
A new way to measure the ocean oxygen level and its connections with carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere during the last ice age could help explain the role oceans played in past glacial melting cycles and improve predictions of how ocean carbon cycles will respond to global warming.
A new study shows the Megalodon, a gigantic shark that went extinct 3.6 million years ago, was more slender than earlier studies suggested. This finding changes scientists' understanding of Megalodon behavior, ancient ocean life, and why the sharks went extinct.
