A-level results in 2025 show the increasing popularity of STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) among students. For students taking three A-levels—the majority—the most popular combination of subjects was biology, ...
For decades, researchers around the world have searched for alternatives to iridium, an extremely rare, incredibly expensive metal used in the production of clean hydrogen fuels.
Scientists have delineated the critical atomic-scale mechanism that enables water to significantly enhance platinum (Pt)-catalyzed biomass conversion, according to a study published in the Journal of the American Chemical ...
Solitonic waves—waves that keep their shape and direction of motion for a long time—have intrigued physicists for almost two centuries. In real-world circumstances, these waves eventually die out due to energy loss. A ...
A new study, led by researchers at the University of Missouri, has uncovered how poplar trees can naturally adjust a key part of their wood chemistry based on changes in their environment. This discovery—the result of a ...
Lava shoots high into the sky. Molten rock erupts from two vents simultaneously. The nighttime sky glows red and orange, reflecting the lava oozing across a summit crater.
Imagine you had an unlimited budget for individual tutors offering hyper-personalized courses that maximized learners' productivity and skills development. This summer I previewed this idea—with a ridiculous and solipsistic ...
Every day, new tunnels are being built through rock across the country. The completed tunnels are safe, but the construction phase presents challenges.
A research team affiliated with UNIST has unveiled a technology that transforms nitrates found in wastewater into ammonia, a vital chemical and promising energy carrier, without carbon emissions. This advancement not only ...
Metal oxide materials with nanoscale pores have been applied and studied in a wide range of fields, including as catalysts, adsorption and separation materials, and energy materials. Among them, single-crystalline nanoporous ...
