物质与能量Originally, the term "Sherpa" denoted a hill-tribe of Tibetan descent, but it has since become synonymous with guides on Mount Everest, the world's highest and most rugged mountain. Much like these Sherpas, research into the demanding task of developin
阅读全文物质与能量Scientists have learned over the years that when aquatic organisms such as zooplankton become exposed to microplastics, they eat poorly. Research at Purdue University now shows that their plastic-induced eating difficulties also limit the ability of zoopl
阅读全文物质与能量One of the goals outlined by the Biden administration's National Climate Task Force in 2021 was to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions to 50%-52% below 2005 levels by 2030.
阅读全文物质与能量Mass adoption of electric vehicles (EV) is a key part of plans to decarbonize the United States' energy system. As EV ownership in the U.S. increases, understanding how much EV owners are driving their cars informs everything from climate and energy mode
阅读全文物质与能量A speech prosthetic developed by a collaborative team of Duke neuroscientists, neurosurgeons, and engineers can translate a person's brain signals into what they're trying to say.
阅读全文物质与能量Scientists have made a major breakthrough in the study of species evolution, and provided further evidence that state-of-the-art visual technology can be used to track the tiniest changes in different organisms' development.
阅读全文物质与能量Researchers from Tohoku University have developed a model that simulates the motion of fish tail fins. The model uncovers the underlying mechanisms behind a commonly observed phenomenon in fish: how they synchronize the movement of their tail fins, riding
阅读全文物质与能量Anyone who's ever done a belly flop into a swimming pool knows it ends with a blunt-sounding splat, a big splash and a searing red sting. What most people don't know is why.
阅读全文物质与能量Conventional microscopes irradiate a sample, usually with light or electrons. Any reflected or scattered radiation can be used to build a detailed image and obtain characteristic information about a material's surface. This is called an active measuremen
阅读全文物质与能量Researchers at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology developed an automated laboratory robot to run complex electrochemical experiments and analyze data.
阅读全文物质与能量Researchers have developed a virtual reality application where a range of 3D modelling tools can be opened and controlled using just the movement of a user's hand.
阅读全文物质与能量The rapid adoption of zero-emission electric vehicles will move the nation close to an 80% or more drop in transportation greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 from the 2019 level according to researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewabl
