Astronomers find 'gold standard' star in Milky Way. Credit: Carnegie ScienceThere is a relatively bright star in our sun's neighborhood of the Milky Way Galaxy. Inside of it, astronomers have been able to identify the widest variety of elements in a star more than our solar system yet.The research, led by University of Michigan...
Testing of new pharmaceutical products. Credit: Freepik.What do gunpowder, penicillin, and Teflon all share? They were innovations that took the globe by storm, but they were all developed by pure accident.In a new research study announced in the journal Science, researchers used electrical power to establish equipment that can make it less complicated...
Argon that is specially sourced could potentially uncover mysteries about the universe's dark matter in the near future. Credit: nautil.University of Houston Researchers Create Facility for Mining Exceptionally Pure Argon from Colorado SiteA deposit of practically pure argon that has been left untouched since Earth's formation will help physicists know more about the universe.The...
All 5 nucleobases of RNA and DNA have been found in meteorites for the first time. These chemicals are necessary ingredients for life on Earth and numerous purines and also two pyrimidines-- thymine and cytosine-- not previously spotted in meteorites were discovered.The discoveries originate from analyzing three carbonaceous meteorites, known to be abundant in...
An isotope of magnesium has been uncovered with a much shorter half-life than the time it takes to draw in electrons, representing a potential border to chemistry when it involves the graph of nuclides.More significant than 3000 different nuclides-- isotopes of the components-- have been found to day, although only 252 are thought-about secure....
Scientists from Beihang University, the Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology and the Michigan Institute of Translational Nanotechnology produced a synthetic enamel. Such Synthetic enamel as similar properties to natural tooth enamel.Article published in the journal Science. Its title: Multiscale engineered artificial tooth enamel, Science (2022). The article illustrates how well the new synthetic material compare...
Re-exploring a renowned meteoriteGround braking Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) analysis is being used to better explore the chemical diversity of the renowned Murchison meteorite that exploded over Australia in 1969. The desired outcome of this procedure might result in the discovery of new particles in meteorites and samples from space.Preliminary analysis of the Murchison...
Credit: University of CambridgeScientists have developed self-healing, biodegradable, 3D-printed materials that could be used to develop realistic artificial hands and other soft robotics applications.The low-cost jelly-like materials, developed by scientists at the University of Cambridge, can sense strain, temperature, and humidity. Furthermore, unlike earlier self-healing robots, they can additionally partially repair themselves at room...
Scientists from MIT have crafted a new composite material from a greater part of cellulose nanocrystals and a synthetic polymer.Credit: Adam HuntResearch on the new material has been published in the journal Cellulose.Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have engineered a new composite material made from cellulose and synthetic polymer. Cellulose fibers...
Researchers from Osaka University and Osaka City University synthesize and crystallize a molecule that is usually too unstable to thoroughly study in the laboratory. The molecule is also a model of a revolutionary class of magnets. Since the very first documented production in 2004, researchers have been hard at work utilizing graphene and identical...
