Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous, crystalline materials that can trap compounds within their molecular cavities, giving them a wide range of…
Very recently, a team of researchers led by Professor Xiao Yun-Feng and Professor Gong Qihuang at Peking University, in collaboration with Professor Qiu…
Ultrafast, multidimensional spectroscopy unlocks macroscopic-scale effects of quantum electronic correlations.
We all live in a curved geometry: the earth is not flat. We realize this whenever we board a plane across the Atlantic Ocean and seemingly take a detour – if…
Turbulence is everywhere — it rattles our planes and makes tiny whirlpools in our bathtubs — but it is one of the least understood phenomena in classical…
Although boron nitride looks very similar to graphene in structure, it has completely different optoelectronic properties. Its constituents, the elements boron…
Young scientists from 101 countries are invited to the 70th anniversary of the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings. This was the result of the decision taken today…
The new antifouling UV spotlight was developed for the continuous deployment on the three autonomous MARNET measuring stations, which the IOW operates in the…
Itokawa would normally be a fairly average near-Earth asteroid – a rocky mass measuring only a few hundred metres in diameter, which orbits the sun amid…
During the production process of metallic casting materials, there are many different impurities in the melt, which are difficult or impossible to remove…
Results published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society provide new insights on the way molecules pack and order themselves into “tunable”…
Two tree species native to the Northeast have been found to be structurally sound for use in cross-laminated timber (CLT) – a revolutionary new type of…
Over its original four-year mission, the Kepler satellite looked for planets, especially those that lie in the “Habitable Zones” of their stars, where liquid…
Scientists want to understand the genetic rules that direct this delicate dance, and a new algorithm developed by Brown University mathematicians could help…
The conversion of carbon dioxide to valuable chemicals such as methane has drawn great attention for use in supporting carbon capture and utilization….
The magnetotactic bacterium Magnetococcus marinus swims with the help of two bundles of flagella, which are thread-like structures. The bacterial cells also…
