“In the new SuperKEKB accelerator in Japan the first collisions of matter and anti-matter particles have been detected. Scientists from LMU and the Universe Cluster are involved in the experiments. Particle physicists have been waiting for this moment for a …
“Blue Origin, the private space company founded by billionaire Jeff Bezos, launched its passenger spaceship New Shepard on a test flight Sunday (April 29), carrying a dummy astronaut and experiments on their highest spaceflight yet. The New Shepard 2.0 …
“Precise control of the atomic structure of gallium-oxide layers improves the development of high-power electronic devices. A simple method that uses hydrogen chloride can better control the crystal structure of a common semiconductor and shows promise for novel high-powered electronic …
“Perfection is not everything, according to an international team of researchers whose 2-D materials study shows that defects can enhance a material’s physical, electrochemical, magnetic, energy and catalytic properties. “Electronic devices, like transistors, are usually made from relatively bulky …
“MIT analysis shows when and where advanced photovoltaics would be economic to install. Which is a better deal: an established, off-the-shelf type of solar panel or a cutting-edge type that delivers more power for a given area but costs more …
“The world fell in love with plastics because they’re cheap, convenient, lightweight and long-lasting. For these same reasons, plastics are now trashing the Earth. Colorado State University chemists have announced in the journal Science another major step toward waste-free …
“Discovery has the potential of increasing the capacity of wireless communications Wi-Fi and cellular data traffic are increasing exponentially but, unless the capacity of wireless links can be increased, all that traffic is bound to lead to unacceptable bottlenecks. Upcoming …
“A new conductor material and a new electrode material could pave the way for inexpensive batteries and therefore the large-scale storage of renewable energies. The energy transition depends on technologies that allow the inexpensive temporary storage of electricity from renewable …
“A group of scientists developed a new energy-saving optical receiver with rapid power-on/off functionality. Data infrastructures are increasingly strained by the rapid development in new technologies – from 5G to the Internet of Things – where the demand for bandwidth-hungry applications …
“Researchers have developed a new molecule magnet design that would bring high-density, nanoscale data storage into the realm of possibility. Single-molecule magnets (SMMs) have been attracting a lot of attention recently. This is because of the increased demand for faster …
