Collaboration has led to the successful observation of these ultrafast electrons within conducting two-dimensional polymers.
Researchers have unveiled a new means of predicting how to synthesize new materials via the ion-exchange. Based on computer simulations, the method significantly reduces the time and energy required to explore for inorganic materials.
Researchers have found differences between experienced Ordnance Survey (OS) mapmakers and novices in the way that they interpret aerial images for mapmaking, which could lead to improved training processes for new recruits.
In a discovery that could hasten treatment for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), scientists have discovered a harbinger in the blood of some people who later went on to develop the disease.
Climate change will increase the future value of residential rooftop solar panels across the United States by up to 19% by the end of the century, according to a new study.
Analysis of mooring observations and hydrographic data suggest the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation deep water limb in the North Atlantic has weakened. Two decades of continual observations provide a greater understanding of the Earth's climate regulating system.
Researchers have designed a new method for developing immunotherapy drugs using engineered peptides to elicit a natural immune response inside the body.
EPFL researchers have developed the first comprehensive model of the quantum-mechanical effects behind photoluminescence in thin gold films; a discovery that could drive the development of solar fuels and batteries.
Earthquakes and landslides are famously difficult to predict and prepare for. By studying a miniature version of the ground in the lab, scientists have demonstrated how these events can be triggered by a small external shock wave. Bring a flotation device: it involves the ground briefly turning into a liquid!
Although there are still some aspects pending confirmation for its use in the clinical setting, and its resolution needs to be improved slightly, a study has shown that a method routinely used to carry out ophthalmological tests can also be used to monitor the neurodegeneration that occurs in Parkinson's patients. In the course of the research it was found that the neurodegeneration of the retina probably precedes cognitive impairment.
The huge reptile, Vasuki Indicus, is likely to have lived 47 million years ago, say IIT Roorkee researchers
On April 19, 1975, India’s first satellite ‘Aryabhata’ was launched to space.
El Nino and its abundant rains could soon turn into droughts caused by La Nina as well as an intense hurricane season across South America
A new study reveals how noise is generated and propagated from these engines, technically known as boundary layer ingesting (BLI) ducted fans.
A heart attack will leave a permanent scar on a human heart, yet other animals, including zebrafish, can clear cardiac scar tissue and regrow damaged muscle as adults. Biologists sheds new light on how zebrafish heal heart tissue by comparing how this species responds to heart injury with medaka, a fish species that cannot regenerate cardiac tissue.
A new robotic suction cup which can grasp rough, curved and heavy stone, has been developed by scientists.
A new typing model simulates the typing process instead of just predicting words.
Despite progress in defining functional elements of noncoding DNA, it is still not fully understood. Researchers, using an experiment that elucidated the function of tens of thousands of noncoding variants, discovered a link between functional mutations and genes linked to cancer pathways, as well as indicators to predict cancer patient survival. Understanding the mutations' influence on mRNA and protein production could shed light on the processes that drive cancer progression and guide advancement of testing tools.
The first health impact study of coal train pollution centers on the San Francisco Bay Area, with scientists finding communities near passing coal trains suffer worse health outcomes.
