Indonesia Seeks Australia’s Help in Becoming a Global EV and Battery Supplier

Credit: Michael Fousert/ unplash. Australia and Indonesia are strengthening their economic collaboration, leveraging their respective strengths in the clean energy transition. Indonesia is emerging as a manufacturer of electric vehicles and their accompanying batteries, while Australia possesses the necessary lithium reserves to support Indonesia's endeavors in this field. During the visit of Indonesian President Joko "Jokowi"...

Electrochemical Device Captures Carbon Dioxide at the Flick of a Switch

A ground-breaking innovation created by Rice University engineers has the potential to drastically lower the price of carbon dioxide capture from various emission sources. According to their work published in Nature, this novel method directly removes carbon dioxide from flue gas and even the atmosphere by inducing a water and oxygen electrochemical reaction. By transforming...

Data From InSight Suggests Mars has an All-Liquid Core and Internal Mass Anomalies

Comparison between the classical model of rotation of Mars and the one proposed in this study. Temporal evolution of the 30-months solutions for the FCN period (a), the core amplification factor (b), and the precession rate (c), with the classical spin model (orange) and with the model with corrections on the rotation rate for the post-dust-storm period...

A New Method for Managing the Turbulence’s Characteristics

An isolated blob of turbulence is created by the repeated collision of eight vortex rings. (Left) Contained turbulence is illustrated by the breakdown of the blob's energy into the mean flow (yellow) and fluctuating (blue) components. (Right) Inside the chaotic blob, highly erratic tracer particle trajectories are shown. Credit: Matsuzawa et al. According to a...

Study Indicates that Mild Cleaners Are just as good at killing viruses as strong soaps

Credit: CC0 Public Domain Reputable researchers from the University of Sheffield have revealed a stunning discovery in a ground-breaking study: mild cleansers are just as good at killing viruses, including the coronavirus, as solid soaps. Healthcare practitioners who often use skin-friendly cleansers to prevent or treat irritating contact dermatitis—a common skin ailment characterized by redness,...
