A team of scientists at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering and Florida State University’s National High Magnetic Field Laboratory have come up with a new design for a magnetic levitation-based low-gravity simulator that promises a huge increase in vol… Continue reading New low-gravity simulator design promises around 1,000 times the volume
The Greenland Ice Sheet is associated with a range of environmental issues, but now researchers have discovered a surprising new problem that hadn’t been considered before. Glacial meltwater was found to be unexpectedly high in mercury, which could hav… Continue reading Surprisingly high mercury levels detected in Greenland glacier meltwater
Antibiotic resistant bacteria are among the most urgent threats to public health. Now a team of scientists has developed a new single-dose drug that works on a different mechanism to most existing antibiotics, and showed in tests in mice that it can be… Continue reading Single dose antibiotic clears multi-drug-resistant gonorrhea in mice
Perovskite solar cells have come along in leaps and bounds since they were first described in 2009, with efficiencies improving from around four percent to the mid- or even high twenties in recent designs. One drawback, however, is the notorious instab… Continue reading Old pigment brings some stability to new perovskite solar cell design
