The race to build the first useful quantum computer is on and may revolutionize the world with brand new capabilities, from ...

A precious metal used everywhere from car exhaust systems to fuel cells, platinum is an incredibly efficient catalyst—but it's costly and carbon-intensive. Now, a serendipitous collaboration between ...

The precursors of heavy elements might arise in the plasma underbellies of swollen stars or in smoldering stellar corpses.

An international team of researchers, led by scientists from GSI/FAIR in Darmstadt, Germany, has studied r-process ...

Silver-110’s decay reveals a promising path to measure antineutrino mass. New data could reshape future neutrino studies.

They are in your phone and your car, yet most people have never heard of them. As demand for clean energy and high-tech gadgets soars, rare earth elements have become more indispensable ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is coupled with time-domain two-dimensional infrared (2DIR) spectroscopy to develop AFM-2DIR nanospectroscopy, which combines the spatial precision of AFM with the ...

We report on the development of a long-term laser diode aging test bench that measures the spectral behavior of laser diodes over several years, in view of their applications in space Rb atomic clocks ...

In this work, a rubidium fountain clock through an 84km commercial optical fiber link was used to steer the atomic time scale generated by a clock ensemble with 2 hydrogen masers and 8 high ...

The 44th edition of Reference Data Series No. 1 (RDS-1) contains estimates of energy, electricity, and nuclear power trends up to the year 2050. The publication is organized into world and regional ...
