Researchers have found a neutron star that captures matter from a companion star in a violent and unstable process. This process, previously observed only in very bright black holes, opens the door to new insights into the behaviour of stars.

Today, 09:32 UTC

Researchers present a new concept for lightweight and mechanically-tunable concrete systems that have integrated energy harvesting and sensing functionality.

Researchers developed a non-invasive and non-antibiotics technology to effectively reduce MRSA infection in bony tissue. The novel antibacterial nanosheets can release a substantial amount of reactive oxygen species subject to ultrasound stimulation.

March 24, 2023

Researchers have demonstrated a caterpillar-like soft robot that can move forward, backward and dip under narrow spaces. The caterpillar-bot's movement is driven by a novel pattern of silver nanowires that use heat to control the way the robot bends, allowing users to steer the robot in either direction.
