Researchers develop ultra-thin 'computer on the bone' Posted: 19 Nov 2021 02:12 PM PST Researchers have developed an ultra-thin wireless device that grows to the surface of bone. Dubbed 'osseosurface electronics,' they could someday help physicians monitor bone health and healing over long periods. |
Scientists create insights into perhaps the most extreme state of matter produced on Earth Posted: 19 Nov 2021 05:51 AM PST Exotic laser-produced high-energy-density (HED) plasmas akin to those found in stars and nuclear explosions could provide insight into events throughout the universe. Physicists have discovered a new way to measure and understand these plasmas, among the most extreme states of matter ever produced on Earth. Improved understanding could provide benefits ranging from fine-tuning the high-density plasmas in inertial confinement fusion experiments to better understanding of processes throughout the universe. |
Speeding up the energy transition reduces climate risks Posted: 18 Nov 2021 05:37 PM PST The World Climate Conference in Glasgow has just ended, and the question is whether the goal of maximum global heating of 1.5°C can still be achieved. In a model calculation, researchers show how the energy transition could lead to the lowest possible cumulative emissions: Instead of slowly cutting back emissions, we should quickly push ahead with the conversion to solar energy and use fossil power plants at full capacity for one last time to do so. |
Macrogrid study: Big value in connecting America’s eastern and western power grids Posted: 18 Nov 2021 05:37 PM PST A 'macrogrid' that increases the electricity moving between America's Eastern and Western interconnections, two of the biggest power grids on the planet, would more than pay for itself, according to new research. |
Bubbling up: Previously hidden environmental impact of bursting bubbles exposed in new study Posted: 18 Nov 2021 05:36 PM PST Bubbles are common in nature and can form when ocean waves break and when raindrops impact surfaces. When bubbles burst, they send tiny jets of water and other materials into the air. A new study examines how the interplay between bubble surfaces and water that contains organic materials contributes to the transport of aerosolized organic materials -- some of which are linked to the spread of disease or contamination -- into the atmosphere. |
Shaping a sustainable future for a common plastic Posted: 18 Nov 2021 05:34 PM PST Broad-based scientific team from government, academia and industry joins forces to identify new opportunities to reduce the environmental impact of polyurethane -- one of the most widely used but little recycled plastic materials. |
How ultracold, superdense atoms become invisible Posted: 18 Nov 2021 05:34 PM PST Physicists have confirmed that as atoms are chilled and squeezed to extremes, their ability to scatter light is suppressed, making them less visible. The findings show the Pauli exclusion principle, or Pauli blocking, applies not just to electrons but also to atoms. |
