There are a lot of items that you are no longer allowed to carry onto an airplane. It's a fair point: an airplane is a metal tube flying above 30,000 feet at 500 ...

A research team from The University of Osaka, in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has uncovered a new molecular mechanism underlying chromosome alignment during cell ...

A microscope image shows how cracks that form in the ceramic top layer of a flexible electronic device can penetrate deep into the polymer substrate beneath. Solving minimizing substrate cracks would ...

The image illustrates a layered structure composed of transition metals (blue) and sulfur (yellow). The space between the layers can be occupied by sodium ions (purple) and organic solvent molecules ...

A research team of scientists from China's Chongqing University and the State Grid Corporation of China has experimentally investigated the aging mechanism of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Using the ...

Researchers discovered a new ion transport mechanism in nanofiltration membranes, offering key insights for improving lithium recovery from magnesium-rich brines. (Nanowerk News) A research team led ...

The race for early cancer detection is one that physicians have been running for millennia. In one of humanity’s oldest surviving medical texts, the ancient Egyptian physician Imhotep described 46 ...

FRESNO COUNTY, Calif. (KFSN) -- Fresno County could soon follow the city's example to crack down on catalytic converter theft. The ordinance that would boost the punishment for the crime that's ...

A new study has unveiled a precise picture of how an ion channel found in most mammalian cells regulates its own function with a 'ball-and-chain' channel-plugging mechanism. The findings boost the ...

A pair of robust and inexpensive catalysts can help recycle mixtures of polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), two of the most common and intractable types of plastic waste (Science 2024, DOI: ...
