The interiors of ice giant planets like Uranus and Neptune could be home to a previously unknown state of matter, according to new computational simulations by Carnegie's Cong Liu and Ronald Cohen.

A joint research team from the Helmut Schmidt University/ University of the Bundeswehr in Hamburg and the Helmholtz Zentrum Hereon has developed and presented an innovative metal hydride compressor ...

You might not think much about what powers your phone or car until the electric bill jumps or a heatwave strains the grid. Behind the scenes, scientists are racing to reinvent how we store electricity ...

Most cooling technology in use relies on vapor-compression technology, which circulates chemical refrigerants through a compressor. “The cooling sector has historically been very risk-averse,” said ...

A few years ago, I drove 90 miles to a friend’s ranch with a slow leak in one of my truck tires. While it wasn’t a total blowout, the tire pressure was noticeably lower than I’d like for the drive ...

Identifying hydrogen and hydride phases can be difficult using traditional microanalysis methods. Because of its atomic structure, hydrogen does not release distinctive X-rays when exposed to ...

Crystal structure In the new high-Tc superconductor, lanthanum and scandium atoms constitute the MgB 2-type sublattice, while the surrounding hydrogen atoms form two types of cage-like configurations.

The crisis of carbon-emissions-fueled climate change has sent humankind on a treasure hunt for cleaner sources of energy. Hydrogen, the forerunner among clean fuels, has proven difficult to tame ...

A research team led by Prof. Ping Chen at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), reported in Nature on September 17 that they created a new core–shell ...
