A new self-disinfecting device has been developed by scientists in order to combat dangerous hospital-acquired infections.

Reactive Technology and the UK’s grid operator National Grid have this week announced the completion of the world’s first technology which is able to continuously measure and monitor an electricity

The 2017 Nobel Prize in chemistry has been awarded to three scientists for improving images made of biological molecules.

Australia will establish a national space agency, the government has said.

The history of the Earth system is a story of change. Some changes are gradual and benign, but others, especially those associated with catastrophic mass extinction, are relatively abrupt and destructive. What sets one group apart from the other? Here, I hypothesize that perturbations of Earth’s carbon cycle lead to mass extinction if they exceed either a critical rate at long time scales or a critical size at short time scales. By analyzing 31 carbon isotopic events during the past 542 million years, I identify the critical rate with a limit imposed by mass conservation.

We present the survey strategy and early results of the “Satellites Around Galactic Analogs” (SAGA) Survey. The SAGA Survey’s goal is to measure the distribution of satellite galaxies around 100 systems analogous to the Milky Way down to the luminosity of the Leo I dwarf galaxy (Mr < -12.3).

Queen's University Belfast scientists have designed a new flexible organic battery that could revolutionise how medical implants are powered.

The team was successfully able to grow 75% of the treated plant with white, instead of violet, petalsadventtr/iStock

The US Army has been focusing on wearable electronics and advanced lithium-ion batteries to power the fighting force of the future, and they’ve come up with a new approach to energy storage that is
