New technique developed for measurement of temperature distribution inside single catalyst particle
Chemical reactions are usually accompanied by thermal effects, inevitably resulting in temperature changes in the reaction system. Therefore, temperature is an important parameter in reactions, which can affect chemical thermodynamics and reaction ki.....»»
One way to improve a fusion reaction: Use weaknesses as strengths
In the Japanese art of Kintsugi, an artist takes the broken shards of a bowl and fuses them back together with gold to make a final product more beautiful than the original......»»
Study shows that the ATLAS detector can measure the flux of high-energy supernova neutrinos
High-energy neutrinos are extremely rare particles that have so far proved very difficult to detect. Fluxes of these rare particles were first detected by the IceCube Collaboration back in 2013......»»
Metal-based electrocatalysts for ammonia electro-oxidation reaction to nitrate/nitrite: Past, present and future
Recently, a research team led by Prof. Ji Liang from Tianjin University, China, systematically introduced the research progress on the preparation of nitrate/nitrite by ammonia electro-oxidation reaction and proposed different strategies to enhance t.....»»
Daily Telescope: Finally, we’ve found the core of a famous supernova
In the astronomy community, SN 1987A has somewhat legendary status. Enlarge / Webb has observed the best evidence yet for emission from a neutron star at the site of Supernova 1987A. (credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, et. al.).....»»
This famous supernova remnant is hiding a secret

Astronomers find first strong evidence of neutron star remnant of exploding star
An international team of astronomers including UCL's (University College London's) Professor Mike Barlow has discovered the first conclusive evidence that a neutron star exists at the center of Supernova 1987A, a star explosion observed 37 years ago......»»
OnePlus Kicks Off OnePlus Watch 2 Teasing
When we heard the news that Fossil was officially leaving the Wear OS space, our initial reaction wasn’t to worry about the future of Wear OS or that this could be a sign of Google’s commitment. We know that Google is all-in with its Pixe.....»»
Engineers use AI to wrangle fusion power for the grid
In the blink of an eye, the unruly, superheated plasma that drives a fusion reaction can lose its stability and escape the strong magnetic fields confining it within the donut-shaped fusion reactor. These getaways frequently spell the end of the reac.....»»
Fire is a chemical reaction—here"s why Australia is supremely suited to it
Over the last 15 million years, Australia has slowly dried out. After humans arrived more than 65,000 years ago, they learned to use fire to their advantage. Today, fire weather is getting more frequent—and fires are following as the world heats up.....»»
Mark Zuckerberg dishes on Apple ‘fanboys’ and how his Vision Pro review compares to Steve Ballmer’s iPhone reaction
Earlier this week, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg shared a 3-minute video on Instagram in which he “reviewed” the Apple Vision Pro. Ultimately, he concluded that the $500 Meta Quest 3 is not only the better value than the $3,500 Apple Vision Pro, but a.....»»
New synthesis method uses light reaction on a water surface
By forming chemical bonds between atoms, complex molecules such as those needed for medicines, crop protection products, or high-performance materials are prepared using synthetic chemistry. Such synthesis reactions typically require organic solvents.....»»
Group of united academics publish "scientists" warning" on climate and technology
Throughout human history, technologies have been used to make people's lives richer and more comfortable, but they have also contributed to a global crisis threatening Earth's climate, ecosystems, and even our own survival......»»
Brutalist Architecture: Characteristics, Influences, Ambassadors and Sights
Brutalist architecture emerged in the 1950s as a reaction against the lightness and decoration of 1930s modernism. Instead, brutalism focused on the authenticity of materials like concrete, emphasizing their raw, sculptural qualities. The term “.....»»
