While the composition of gas and dust in a molecular cloud is fairly uniform, everything changes once a star begins to form.

For decades, scientists have marveled at the Local Hot Bubble—a vast, low-density region stretching roughly 1,000 light-years ...

The market for solar cells and panels is advancing rapidly. According to publicly available estimates, the market value of solar panels worldwide stood at around US$82 billion in 2023 and is forecast ...

Titan is the only moon in our solar system with a significant atmosphere. Now we have a very good idea of how this dense atmosphere formed.

“A piece of plastic can go in and then a functioning solar module can go out,” said Bhakta. Except for the specialized print head that places the perovskite compound onto the plastic, the rest of the ...

Researchers at the Australian Centre for Advanced Photovoltaics have discovered a new material that just might lead the way into a world of advanced, inexpensive, and highly efficient solar cells.

following the mid-2023 launch of an initial 100 MW/200 MWh energy storage system. The site includes nearly 2 million PV panels installed under a “salt-solar hybrid” model that integrates solar ...

Diffusion generation process for a stable crystalline material having a target band gap value (3 eV) using the MatterGen model. After a two-year postdoctoral stint at MIT’s Computer Science and ...

Microsoft has released MatterGen’s source code on GitHub The open-source AI model is available with an MIT licence MatterGen is a diffusion-based generative AI model ...

This may explain the strange properties of the orbits of our solar system's planets, which are not quite perfectly circular, and all lie on slightly different planes. NASA artist’s conception of ...

Couldn’t we all do with a little stress reduction? Especially since all seven of the other planets in our solar system are about to become visible at once in a great planetary alignment.

Here he is looking at a model of a DNA molecule ... Microsoft researchers report that when the system was given over 608,000 stable materials from databases, it was able to generate good ...
