| Making plastic more transparent while also adding electrical conductivity Posted: 06 Jul 2020 11:09 AM PDT In an effort to improve large touchscreens, LED light panels and window-mounted infrared solar cells, researchers have made plastic conductive while also making it more transparent. |
| White dwarfs reveal new insights into the origin of carbon in the universe Posted: 06 Jul 2020 11:08 AM PDT A new analysis of white dwarf stars supports their role as a key source of carbon in galaxies. Every carbon atom in the universe was created by stars, but astrophysicists still debate which types of stars are the primary source of the carbon in our galaxy. Some studies favor low-mass stars that blew off their envelopes in stellar winds and became white dwarfs, while others favor massive stars that eventually exploded as supernovae. |
| Cell 'membrane on a chip' could speed up screening of drug candidates for COVID-19 Posted: 06 Jul 2020 08:39 AM PDT Researchers have developed a human cell 'membrane on a chip' that allows continuous monitoring of how drugs and infectious agents interact with our cells, and may soon be used to test potential drug candidates for COVID-19. |
| The sixth sense of animals: An early warning system for earthquakes? Posted: 06 Jul 2020 07:18 AM PDT Continuously observing animals with motion sensors could improve earthquake prediction. |
| Earth's magnetic field can change 10 times faster than previously thought Posted: 06 Jul 2020 06:41 AM PDT A new study reveals that changes in the direction of the Earth's magnetic field may take place 10 times faster than previously thought. |
