A team of researchers has discovered a new way to make valuable industrial chemicals from propylene using a common, low-cost material: lead dioxide (PbO鈧�).
Long before humans reached orbit, insects had already shown they could handle the hurdles of spaceflight. Light, highly adaptable and nutritionally rich, these resilient animals present an attractive option for European researchers ...
A new collagen fingerprinting tool can help scientists identify species from archaeological bone fragments. Pacific islanders of the late Stone Age, also known as the Neolithic period, were master fishers. Archaeological ...
Typhoon Kalmaegi has killed at least 114 people in the Philippines with even more missing and then hit Vietnam Friday. A second typhoon, Fong-Wong, is forecast to hit the Philippines around Sunday and strengthen to a major ...
A team at Carnegie Mellon University is helping kids understand artificial intelligence with a soft, squishy, LED-lit neural network.
Short ultraviolet/ozone (UVO) treatment optimizes cell adhesion on plastic culture substrates by selectively enriching adhesion proteins, as reported by researchers from Institute of Science Tokyo. Their latest study explains ...
In the world of optics, tiny structures called microcavities鈥攐ften no wider than a human hair鈥攑lay a crucial role in technologies ranging from lasers to sensors.
Researchers have been developing computers that deploy light (photons) rather than electricity to power storage and calculations. These light-based computers have the potential to be more energy efficient than traditional ...
Electricity powers our lives, including our cars, phones, computers, and more, through the movement of electrons within a circuit. While we can't see these electrons, electric currents moving through a conductor flow like ...
Quantum computers are powerful, lightning-fast and notoriously difficult to connect to one another over long distances.
