what-makes-a-good-proton-conductor?

A number of advanced energy technologies — including fuel cells, electrolyzers, and an emerging class of low-power electronics — use protons as the key charge carrier. Whether or not these devices will be widely adopted hinges, in part, on how efficiently they can move protons. One class of materials knownContinue Reading

virginia-regulators-weigh-expanded-use-of-data-center’s-polluting-generators 

The state’s Department of Environmental Quality would expand permissible uses during emergencies to include “planned outages” by grid operators, presumably for power line upgrades. Environmentalists say that with expanded use of diesel generators comes more harmful air pollutants and more greenhouse gases. By Charles Paullin This past summer, a fireContinue Reading

researchers-find-how-plants-survive-without-sunlight-or-sex

The study reveals how Balanophora plants function despite abandoning photosynthesis and, in some species, sexual reproduction. Their plastid genomes shrank dramatically in a shared ancestor, yet the plastids remain vital. Asexual reproduction appears to have evolved repeatedly, helping the plants survive in isolated, humid forest habitats. The research highlights surprisingContinue Reading
