Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL), the largest battery manufacturer in the world with a 38% share of the global market, has just announced some fairly significant breakthroughs in battery tech that aren’t just theoretical; they’re already hitting the market.
Scientists have observed “quantum rain” for the first time—quantum droplets breaking up just like water in a storm! This discovery bridges classical fluid dy…
Scientists from King’s College London have managed to grow a tooth under laboratory conditions.
And while this breakthrough may still be a long way from filling in the gaps in anyone’s mouth, researchers say it is filling in the gaps in research.
Scientists are using cutting-edge techniques to track water ice on the Moon—an essential resource for future space missions.
A University of Hawai‘i team utilized ShadowCam to peer into the Moon’s perpetually dark craters, refining estimates of surface ice. Another team introduced a cosmic ray-based method to detect deeply buried ice, a breakthrough in lunar exploration. Both approaches could revolutionize how we locate usable water beyond Earth, with Hawai‘i emerging as a key player in the growing space frontier.
Unlocking lunar water: why ice on the moon matters.
Building GPT-4 took a lot of people. Now, OpenAI says it could rebuild it with as few as five people, all because of what it learned from its latest model, GPT-4.5.
UNIGE scientists have identified a brain circuit that may be at the root of the social difficulties experienced by individuals with autism spectrum disorders. From birth, human survival relies on the ability to connect with others. This capacity, crucial for healthy development, appears to be dis
Researchers at the University of Oklahoma have made a discovery that could potentially revolutionize treatments for antibiotic-resistant infections, cancer and other challenging gram-negative pathogens without relying on precious metals.
Currently, precious metals like platinum and rhodium are used to create synthetic carbohydrates, which are vital components of many approved antibiotics used to combat gram-negative pathogens, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a notorious hospital-acquired infection responsible for the deaths of immunocompromised patients. However, these elements require harsh reaction conditions, are expensive to use and are harmful to the environment when mined.
In an innovative study published in the journal Nature Communications, an OU team led by Professor Indrajeet Sharma has replaced these precious metals with either blue light or iron, achieving similar results with significantly lower toxicity, reduced costs, and greater appeal for researchers and drug manufacturers.
A research group at the University of Stuttgart has manipulated light through its interaction with a metal surface so that it exhibits entirely new properties. The researchers have published their findings in Nature Physics.
“Our results add another chapter to the emerging field of skyrmion research,” proclaims Prof. Harald Giessen, head of the Fourth Physics Institute at the University of Stuttgart, whose group achieved this breakthrough. The team demonstrated the existence of “skyrmion bags” of light on the surface of a metal layer.
