Imagine using artificial intelligence to compare two seemingly unrelated creations—biological tissue and Beethoven's ...

One of the hardest engineering challenges in the world of fusion energy is developing materials that can withstand the ...

Where does the periodic table of chemical elements end and which processes lead to the existence of heavy elements? Researchers report on experiments to come closer to an answer. They gained insight ...

From how much to use, to what shape you apply, everyone has their own opinion on what's right and wrong. A team of material ...

Mexican scientist Nadia Zenteno developed a new building material resistant to extreme conditions, which NASA is interested ...

Now, just 200 grams—the mass of about one cup of water—of a new material developed by scientists at UC Berkeley can pull as much carbon out of the atmosphere as a tree. Omar Yaghi, senior ...

Materials Science and Engineering is the most important subject you have never heard of. It brings together aspects of physics, chemistry, design, maths and even art. It underpins pretty much all the ...

This approach helped clarify how material structures can result in decoherence. In another project, Ames Lab scientists compared a niobium-based material with a tantalum-based material.

Art and science are sometimes poles apart, but that isn't the case in a research project described in ACS ... of particles of kaolin clay or other materials dispersed in water—to make fired ...

operated by the Center for Nanoscale Materials and the Advanced Photon Source (APS). Both are DOE Office of Science user facilities at Argonne. With the Nanoprobe, an X-ray beam tens of nanometers ...

However, a gap exists between how much cooling these materials should theoretically be able to achieve and what they've done in real-world tests. The new materials in this project were able ... Chuxen ...

Halloween is a great time to try some spooky science tricks and experiments. Here at Science Sparks, we’ve been growing our collection of Halloween Science Experiments for years, and this year’s new ...
