Stars, gas and cosmic dust in the Sagittarius B2 molecular cloud glow in near-infrared light, captured by Webb’s NIRCam instrument. The darkest areas of the image are not empty space but are areas ...

In these acoustic absorbers, noise is getting lost – literally. They are thus four times thinner than conventional materials. Image: Empa In construction, blocking noise typically involves using thick ...

And yes, it works with your phone’s built-in zoom, so you can go even deeper into the microscopic universe. Credit: Apexel Developed by Apexel, this sleek and budget-friendly lens has officially ...

The electric vehicle revolution is shifting gears. More people than ever are embracing EVs, drawn by promises of cleaner air, quieter streets, and freedom from fossil fuels. But there’s a catch. The ...

Ancient manuscripts hold valuable historical insights, but over time, age and poor storage conditions can damage their readability and erase important details. A new study in PLoS ONE introduces a ...

Eating more potassium-rich foods like bananas and broccoli may lower blood pressure better than just cutting salt. Potassium helps counter sodium’s effects and supports heart health, making it an ...

Samsung Electronics has again raised the bar by launching its latest washers and dryers, the Bespoke AI Laundry lineup. This innovative series combines sleek design, cutting-edge AI technology, and ...

Using glass fiber-reinforced plastics (GFRP) in wind turbine blades creates significant recycling challenges because GFRP is hard to break down and reuse. Unlike thermoplastics, which can be melted ...

Current Li-ion batteries struggle with fast charging, low temperatures, and thick electrodes due to challenges in managing mass transport and interfacial effects. These limitations restrict their use ...

EPFL researchers have experimentally observed both first- and second-order dissipative phase transitions (DPTs) in a superconducting Kerr resonator. By introducing a two-photon drive, they precisely ...

Researchers from EPFL and IBM have developed a groundbreaking photonic-chip-based traveling-wave parametric amplifier (TWPA) that offers ultra-broadband optical signal amplification in a compact form.

Researchers have developed a stable metalcone thin film for converting atmospheric CO₂ into methanol, a liquid fuel. By mildly annealing tincone at 250°C, they improved its stability in aqueous ...
