Researchers suggest tips to use recycled plastic

Researchers at Paul Scherrer Institute PSI have demonstrated an innovative method to control magnetism in materials using an energy-efficient electric field.

A group of scientists has created a way to illuminate the dynamic behavior of nanoparticles, which are essential components in the production of pharmaceuticals, electronics, and industrial and energy-conversion materials.

A team of astronomers led by University of Arizona researcher Catherine Fielder captured the most precise photographs of a small galaxy and its surroundings, revealing features typically found in much larger galaxies.

"Our results have no clear or direct application right now. It's basic research that lays the foundation for future technologies in quantum information and quantum computers. There's enormous potential for complete discoveries in many different research fields," said Guilherme B Xavier, a researcher in quantum communication at Linkoping University, Sweden.

Two of the planet's most urgent environmental stressors have the potential to affect the development and reproductive production of plants found along the world's coasts, according to new research.

Recent research showed that increasing the ketone supply to the heart in mice with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) allowed their hearts to utilise more ketones and produce more energy.

The University of Delaware and the Argonne National Laboratory have developed a chemical process that converts Styrofoam into the high-value conducting polymer PEDOT:PSS. The researchers show how improved plastic trash may be successfully integrated into functional electronic devices such as silicon-based hybrid solar cells and organic electrochemical transistors.

Researcher Paul Dent of Virginia Commonwealth University's Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology found that tumours that have metastasized to distant locations, such as the brain, are most often impossible to treat and cure, despite recent successes in some tumour types such as NSCLC and cutaneous melanoma.

Researchers discovered that a rare type of lipid is essential in ferroptosis, a type of cell death pioneered by Columbia researcher Brent Stockwell.

Researchers at the University of Gothenburg in a recent study explained how energy moves through the cell via minute atomic movements to reach its goal in the protein.
