Soft sensors have value not only for real-time process monitoring but also for controlling systems during downstream processing.

Window glass, at the microscopic level, shows a strange mix of properties. Like a liquid, its atoms are disordered, but like a solid, its atom are rigid, so a force applied to one atom causes all of them to move.

In arid ecosystems, cacti are primary resources for beetles, flies, and a host of other insects and arthropods that depend on dead or decaying wood.

High-resolution imaging unveils the electrochemical-reaction dynamics in batteries.

A roundup of stories from the Nature Briefing, including how human ancestors came close to extinction, historic pollution in Antarctica, and the AI that predicts smell from a compound's structure.

The research group of Professor Yoav Shechtman from the Israel Institute of Technology Faculty of Biomedical Engineering has developed groundbreaking technology enabling scientists to see dynamic processes in living cells. Their study was published in Nature …

Hydrogen gas is a clean, renewable alternative to fossil fuels, but current industrial production methods used to produce hydrogen release carbon into the atmosphere and pollute the environment.

The study, published in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution, shows great potential for using large herbivores as a natural weapon to prevent invasive plants from out-competing native species.

Scientists have used Solar Orbiter's EUI camera in a new mode of operation to record part of the sun's atmosphere at extreme ultraviolet wavelengths that has been almost impossible to image until now. This new mode of operation was made possible with a last-m…

The preferred “handedness” of biomolecules could have emerged from biased interactions between electrons and magnetic surfaces, new research suggests.

The annular solar eclipse can be seen in New Mexico during this year's Balloon Fiesta.

Astronomers report the discovery of a new massive and quiescent galaxy at a high redshift. The galaxy, which received designation COSMOS-1047519, was detected using the Keck I telescope. The finding was detailed in a paper published August 29 on the pre-print…

Researchers at the Technion—Israel Institute of Technology have developed a coherent and controllable spin-optical laser based on a single atomic layer. This discovery is enabled by coherent spin-dependent interactions between a single atomic layer and a late…

A new variety of the coronavirus isn’t as dangerous as previously feared. What’s more, the fall jab should provide good protection.

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER (FL), Sept. 5, 2023 – Four astronauts ended a six-month science expedition onboard the International Space Station (ISS) with the successful splashdown of the SpaceX Dragon End…

It would be highly unpleasant if you fell into a black hole. The gravitational forces would be so intense that—assuming you fell feet-first—the pull on your feet would be that much stronger than the pull on your head, just because it’s a little closer to the …

The Kuiper Belt is a massive ring composed of interstellar objects such as dwarf planets, asteroids, carbon masses and icy volatile elements like methane and ammonia.

ALTOONA, Pa. (WTAJ) — NASA has a new tool out in space and it’s meant to monitor pollution levels — and a first image was released from above Pennsylvania and the Northeast. The Tropospheric Emissions: Monitoring of Pollution satellite, or TEMO for short, sit…

A novel method of optimising plant enzymes through bioengineering has expanded the understanding of how plant material can be transformed into biofuels, biochemicals, and other high-value goods.

Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb talks about his recent expedition to recover the first meteor fragments from outside our solar system, and his belief that the future of humanity rests on our ability to become a truly ‘interstellar’ species.
