More Computational Power with Fewer Quantum Particles Thanks to Quantum Digits
Binary zeros and ones have been associated with computers for many years. A team at the University of Innsbruck in Austria has now developed a…
Wildfire Smoke has a Chemical Link to Ozone Depletion
Atmospheric chemists discovered that smoke from Australia’s ‘Black Summer’ wildfires triggered chemical reactions in the stratosphere that contributed to ozone depletion. The research is the…
Scientists create a method for Forecasting Seasonal Wildfires in the West
According to an experimental prediction method developed by scientists at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, this summer’s Western wildfire season is likely to be…
Devices That Harness the Fusion Power of the Sun and Stars Could Be Improved With Smaller, Stronger Magnets
In order to design and build machines that could help the world harness the power of the sun to create electricity without producing greenhouse gases…
Climate Change can be Mitigated with New Technology
A dangerous myth is that we will never be able to solve the crisis. That is not correct. To reduce greenhouse gas emissions, a wide…
A New Delivery Method Enables a Wider Range of Peptide Drugs to Be Slowly Released in the Body
One of the first completely new drug delivery microencapsulation methods to be described in decades is described in a recent paper from the University of…
Ozone Depletion may be exacerbated by Copper-based Chemicals
Other chemicals are emerging as major causes of stratospheric ozone depletion as the Earth’s ozone layer recovers from past emissions of now-banned CFCs and halons.…
Differential Responses of Cancer Cells to Drug-Delivery Nanoparticles
Cancer treatments can be delivered to tumors in high dosages using nanoparticles while avoiding the negative side effects associated with chemotherapy. Only a small number…
Nitrogen Pollution Monitoring
Tropical coastal ecosystems are among the most biodiverse areas on the planet. They are also on the front lines of the consequences of human activity.…
A Large Year-round Ozone Hole over the Tropics has been discovered
Scientists are attempting to determine the impact of a new year-round ozone hole above the tropics on the ecosystem and humankind. The ozone layer’s depletion…
Soot Can More Effectively Seed Clouds Due to Particle Phase Chemistry
