Chirality preference in living matter may arise spontaneously to optimize energy harvesting. When one holds a right hand in front of a mirror, the reflected…
Figure 1. Preferred habitats of Homo sapiens (purple shading, left), Homo heidelbergensis (red shading, middle), Homo neanderthalensis (blue shading, right) calculated from a new paleoclimate…
Quantum charging will cut the charging time of electric vehicles from ten hours to three minutes. Whether it’s photovoltaics or fusion, sooner or later, human…
Surface ocean temperatures simulated at unprecedented resolution using a coupled atmosphere-ocean model. The extensive wavy cold structure in the equatorial Pacific corresponds to a tropical…
Complementarity relation of wave-particle duality is analyzed quantitatively with entangled photons as path detectors. The twenty-first century has undoubtedly been the era of quantum science.…
(Left) Predicted change of ocean surface temperature in 2050-2099 relative to 1950-1999 using an ensemble of climate models. (Right) Predicted change in amplitude of rainfall…
IBS and KAIST researchers employed the gold electrode and attached the target molecules onto the electrode. Just like functional groups generate diverse electronic effects, one…
IBS researchers in South Korea extend the understanding of energy flow in chemical reactions and show that it may produce useful molecular swimmers. Steve Granick,…
The lower horizontal axis is the axion mass, the upper horizontal axis is the microwave frequency corresponding to the mass, and the vertical axis is…
3D image of single cobalt atoms on nitrogen-doped graphene. It was crucial for this study to control the coordination environment of single cobalt atom, since…
