New property of hydrogen predicted
Hydrogen is the most common element in the universe. It determines the properties of stars and planets and is crucial for life on Earth—not least because of its role in climate-neutral energy supply. Generations of scientists in physics and chemist.....»»
Webb investigates eternal sunrises, sunsets on distant world
Researchers using the James Webb Space Telescope have finally confirmed what models have previously predicted: An exoplanet has differences between its eternal morning and eternal evening atmosphere. WASP-39 b, a giant planet with a diameter 1.3 time.....»»
Producing hydrogen and fertilizer at the same time
A research team from the University Alliance Ruhr, Germany, has found a catalyst that can be used to convert ammonia into the energy carrier hydrogen and the fertilizer precursor nitrite. The production of hydrogen and the production of fertilizer ha.....»»
Atomically controlled MXenes enable cost-effective green hydrogen production
A total of 137 countries around the world have signed a "net-zero" climate change agreement to end fossil fuel use and achieve zero carbon emissions by 2050. Hydrogen is being touted as the next green energy source because it emits only water and oxy.....»»
What flavor is that neutrino? Adding flavor helps to track neutrino movement in astrophysical systems
Neutrinos have a quantum mechanical property called "flavor." This flavor can transform as neutrinos move through space. A major challenge is to keep track of both the physical movement of the neutrinos and their change of flavor in astrophysical sys.....»»
Study introduces lead-coated nickel catalyst for enhanced hydrogen evolution reaction efficiency
In a recent collaboration, a research team developed a hydrogen evolution reaction catalyst that minimizes degradation caused by reverse current in alkaline water electrolysis systems......»»
Q&A: Researcher discusses how gravitational waves hint at dark matter and Big Bang mysteries
Gravitational waves, ripples in space-time predicted by Einstein almost a century ago, were detected for the first time in 2015. A new study led by Yanou Cui, an associate professor of physics and astronomy at the University of California, Riverside,.....»»

3D covalent organic frameworks with zyg topology for photocatalytic synthesis of hydrogen peroxide
A research team proposed a new synthetic strategy of COFs based on a new topology that remotely separates donor (D) and acceptor (A) units in 3D lattice to produce the expected metastable photo-induced charge-separated states......»»
Apple wants China to alter an antitrust ruling it already won
