Anyone who climbs the 285 steps to the viewing platform of Berlin's Siegessäule, or Victory Column, will probably have quite a few sore muscles the next day.
A new study published in Science Advances found that certain types of materials have a “memory” of how they were processed, stored, and manipulated….
Unique Cancer Drug Discovered With Help From Advanced Light Source Begins Historical Clinical Trial
Now a team of Brown University researchers has developed a way to measure the forces involved in this type of clustering. It's the first time, the researchers…
Polymer electrolyte fuel cells display one of the key elements for the transformation of chemical into electrical energy. However, the currently employed…
The snow is made of tiny particles of iron – much heavier than any snowflake on Earth's surface – that fall from the molten outer core and pile on top of the…
For many lung cancer patients, the best treatment options involve checkpoint inhibitors. These drugs unleash a patient's immune system against their disease…
“Our team experimentally detected an exceptional surface, a continuous three-dimensional curving surface of exceptional points,” said Xufeng Zhang, who led…
Atomic-level studies of the architecture of tiny sodium channel proteins, critical to generating electrical signals that start off each beat of the heart, are…
As part of the AMARETO project (Saxon Alliance for Material and Resource Efficient Technologies), the Institute for Metal Forming (IMF) has now produced cast…
Predator-prey cycles are among the fundamental phenomena of ecological systems: the population sizes of predators and their prey, for instance foxes and hares,…
In the new study, published today in Nature, the researchers harnessed a Nobel Prize-winning technique called cryo-electron microscopy to freeze the gene…
The aim of the OPS-SAT mission, which is being controlled from ESA's European Space Operations Centre in Darmstadt, Germany, is to carry out low-risk tests on…
The research, published in ACS Catalysis, helps to resolve a nearly century-old research question, the authors say. And it could aid in designing new catalysts…
This image includes newly published observations using an instrument designed and built at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. Called…
The new coating — engineered from samarium nickel oxide, a unique tunable material — employs a bit of temperature trickery.
