The ammonium salt of perrhenic acid, NH4ReO4, is ammonium perrhenate (APR). It is the most commonly traded form of rhenium. It is a white salt that is soluble in ethanol and water and only slightly soluble in NH4Cl. It was first described shortly after rhenium was discovered. It is an intermediat.....
On April 1, an asteroid large enough to do significant harm will make its closest approach to Earth ever recorded. In the spirit of April Fools, 2007 FF1 is only joking, traversing 19 times the distance between us and the Moon. Closer approaches by asteroids are usual, but this one stands out for.....
Hoverfly visual systems have been reverse engineered to detect drone audio fingerprints from nearly four kilometers away, according to researchers. The discovery could aid in the fight against the increasing use of IED-carrying drones, such as those deployed in Ukraine. Australian researchers rev.....
Data analytics is showing its utility in the post-pandemic period when internet storefronts have become the norm for merchants. Client data analysis tools may help with inventory management, supply chain management, fraud detection, and predicting which items will appeal to specific customer segm.....
At IFLScience, we adore a cursed old artifact. Whether it’s an enormous black sarcophagus filled with delicious mummy juice, a millennia-old and definitely lethal slab of tomb cheese, or the Ark of the Covenant itself, the discovery of a link to our ancestors – especially the really pisse.....
KELT-10 is a star that is not part of the Telescopium constellation but is within its boundaries. It is a star in the constellation Telescopium, and its Cordoba Durchmusterung (CD) catalogue number is CD-47 12635. Kuhn et al. (KELT) discovered it, as well as its planet. At least one Extrasolar Pl.....
A team of researchers from ICFO and Aalto University have discovered magnetic signals undetected by any other sensor technology using atoms only a few billionths of a degree above absolute zero. Magnetometers are devices that measure the direction, strength, or relative changes of magnetic fields.....
Engineers have created a high-performance nanowire catalyst that extracts ammonia and solid ammonia (fertilizer) from nitrate, which is a frequent contaminant in industrial effluent and polluted groundwater. A smattering of ruthenium atoms on a mesh of copper nanowires could be the first step tow.....
According to new research, the formation of complex cells occurred without the presence of oxygen. Cells are classified into two types based on whether or not they have a nucleus. Prokaryotic cells (bacteria) lack a nuclear envelope, whereas eukaryotic cells have a nucleus that separates the gene.....
A long-awaited milestone with tremendous consequences for industry, human understanding, and national security has been reached thanks to quantum technology. Researchers from the UK National Quantum Technology Hub in Sensors and Timing from the University of Birmingham have published their findin.....
Since the 1700s, taxonomy has been the study of how living entities relate to one another as species. Taxonomists treat each species as a group of organisms that have common biological traits, despite the fact that scientists and philosophers have long argued about what constitutes a species. Bec.....
Since Monday, sunspot AR2975 has released 17 flares, and it may not be through yet. Some of the charged particles ejected during the process appear to have a good chance of hitting the Earth’s atmosphere, including a “Cannibal Coronal Mass Ejection,” which isn’t as terrify.....
