For many industrial applications one needs synthesis gas, also known as "syngas," a mixture of hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO). In addition to the established production method via steam reforming, synthesis gas can ...
Advances in spintronics have led to the practical use of magnetoresistive random-access memory (MRAM), a non-volatile memory technology that supports energy-efficient semiconductor integrated circuits.
Mount Fuji hasn't erupted since 1707. But for Volcanic Disaster Preparedness Day, Japanese officials have released computer- and AI-generated videos showing a simulation of a potential violent eruption of the active volcano.
A giant anomalous Hall effect (AHE) has been observed in a nonmagnetic material for the first time, as reported by researchers from Japan. This surprising result was achieved using high-quality Cd3As2 thin films, a Dirac ...
Hydrogels are soft, water-rich polymeric materials that can swell or shrink in response to environmental stimuli. This ability to change shape makes them valuable in miniaturized devices for flexible electronics, microrobotics, ...
Far beneath the waves, down in the depths of the Japan Trench—seven kilometers below sea level—lie hidden clues about some of the most powerful earthquakes and tsunamis on Earth.
SpaceX executed the most successful flight test of its super-powerful Starship launch system to date, featuring Starship's first-ever payload deployment and a thrilling Indian Ocean splashdown. Today's 10th test flight followed ...
RIKEN physicists have created the first thin films featuring a special combination of electrical and topological properties. This demonstration could help to realize new forms of electronics that are highly energy efficient.
Sometime in the 2040s, humans may well reach a new frontier—Mars. To get there, we'll need sustainable sources of food, medicines and materials.
SpaceX has lined up its massive Starship and Super Heavy rocket for what would be its 10th suborbital test flight, aiming to complete goals that have fallen short so far in 2025.
