Oxygen and chlorine evolution without noble metals: Electrode potential transforms MXene surfaces
MXenes are a class of two-dimensional materials that were discovered in 2011. Theoretical studies previously predicted that they would not be catalytically active in anodic processes. Researchers led by Prof. Dr. Kai S. Exner, head of the Department.....»»
Black hole genealogy: A new way to discover "ancestors" of cosmic phenomena
A research team has proposed a new method to reconstruct the "family tree" of black holes. Published in The Astrophysical Journal, this research offers a way to infer the properties of the black hole progenitors of these mergers, one of the most brut.....»»
Waal river draws more water, signaling potential Rhine system shift
Historical observations and model computations point to the Rhine system having crossed a tipping point. Since extreme peak flows in the 1990s, the Waal has gradually attracted more water at the Pannerdense Kop bifurcation. This is shown in research.....»»
Excited state dynamics unlock potential for organics LEDs and bioimaging
Excited state dynamics are essential for understanding fluorescence properties in molecules, impacting their application in technologies. Research at Shinshu University explores how molecular structure and geometry influence light emission in aggrega.....»»
Stem cell transplants could save the world"s corals, say researchers
Climate change is bleaching and killing off vast amounts of the world's coral due to rising sea temperatures. Dr. Benyamin Rosental of Ben-Gurion University of the Negev and his colleagues have proposed an out of the box potential solution: transplan.....»»
Study reveals untapped potential in Switzerland"s wood material flows
Switzerland has set itself a goal that is as ambitious as it is necessary: net zero by 2050. One of the most important raw materials on the road to a climate-neutral future is wood. This renewable natural resource binds CO2 from the atmosphere as it.....»»
New climate chemistry model finds "non-negligible" impacts of potential hydrogen fuel leakage
As the world looks for ways to stop climate change, much discussion focuses on using hydrogen instead of fossil fuels, which emit climate-warming greenhouse gases (GHGs) when they're burned. The idea is appealing. Burning hydrogen doesn't emit GHGs t.....»»
