Scientific debate has been hot lately about whether microbial nanowires, the specialized electrical pili of the mud-dwelling anaerobic bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens, truly possess metallic-like ...

Lithium-ion batteries power our phones, cars, and even homes; ensuring their safe and efficient behavior has become ...

Electrostatically charged liquids underpin numerous applications from coatings and high-resolution printing to mass spectrometry. The charge provides a handle by which to control the droplets.

The dynamics of the englacial cryo-hydrologic system control two important mechanisms contributing to accelerated ice flow on the Greenland Ice Sheet- delivery of water to the bed to drive basal ...

Because the technique provides such significant benefits, and because the transitions (phase changes, chemical reactions, etc.) observed in a sample as it is heated are often very complex, the ...

5. According to these conceptions, there cannot exist any magnetic flux 'frozen' in the interior of pure supraconductors; a permanent flux should only be found confined to the hollows of ...
