Study finds "nanoscale silver coating" can protect solid-state batteries from cracks
6+ hour, 58+ min ago (355+ words) One of the greatest problems of battery durability witnessed by scientists could have been solved. Silver coating can be used to reinforce battery materials in solid state. This finding may revolutionize the future of the energy storage technology. Solid state…...
Are Uranus and Neptune really ice giants? Here's what study says
1+ mon, 4+ day ago (325+ words) Uranus and Neptune may not be classic ice giants. New research'challenges long standing views of their internal composition. The scientists observed that these distant planets could be far rockier inside. The findings reshape understanding of the solar system's outer worlds....
World’s First Discovery of Ice XXI: South Korean team finds new ice phase at room temperature
2+ mon, 1+ week ago (397+ words) New Ice Phase Found at Room TemperatureThe study, published in Nature Materials last October, describes how KRISS researchers observed the repeating freezing and melting of water under ultrahigh pressure over 2 GPa on a microsecond timescale. This marked the first direct…...
Saturn’s moon Titan hosts bizarre chemistry where oil and water mix-Here is what study says
2+ mon, 2+ week ago (379+ words) The moon 'Titan' has had its strange behaviour of molecules. Titan is the biggest satellite of planet Saturn. It has been found that polar and non-polar molecules are able to intermix there. This is contrary to the real rule of…...
Scientists detect mysterious atomic patterns in processed metals
2+ mon, 2+ week ago (198+ words) Researchers at MIT have identified hidden atomic patterns within metal alloys. These patterns persist even after heating, cooling and deformation. The discovery challenges the belief that metal atoms randomise during manufacturing. Where the Discovery Happened? The team studied a chromium-cobalt-nickel…...
Global neutrino study brings scientists closer to solving the universe’s biggest mystery of existence
2+ mon, 3+ week ago (533+ words) Could the answer to why our universe exists lie within ghostlike particles that rarely interact with matter? A global team of scientists believes they are closer to finding out. T2K and NOvA Combine Forces Across ContinentsFor the first time, researchers from…...
Perovskites shine faster than ever imagined-Here is what study says
2+ mon, 3+ week ago (171+ words) A new light source is emerging from familiar materials. Perovskites which was once famous for cheap solar cells is now revealing quantum powers.

Scientists discover biosignature molecule in failed star-Here is what it means for extraterrestrial life
3+ mon, 2+ week ago (235+ words) Astrophysicists have found phosphine (PH) in the atmosphere of a brown dwarf star, Wolf 1130C, located 54 light-years away from Earth. This is the first confirmed detection of phosphine across all brown dwarfs. This raises questions about phosphorus chemistry in substellar environments....
What does two-billion-year-old water taste like? Scientists discovered and tasted ancient water that holds Earth’s secrets
4+ mon, 3+ week ago (302+ words) Back in 2016, researchers in Canada stumbled upon something unusual. Nearly three kilometres beneath the Earth's surface, they uncovered water sealed away for more than two billion years. The discovery, made inside a mine, became the oldest known water on Earth....
