Chirality in organic superconductors was found to induce giant spin-current coupling, mimicking strong spin-orbit effects.

A key turning point was when oxygen accumulated in the atmosphere around 2.3 billion years ago. Scientists have used this oxygen surge and how microbes adapted to it to map out bacterial evolution.

A newly developed process helps solve this problem: CO2 is directly split electrochemically into carbon and oxygen. Oxygen could also be produced in this way under water or in space -- without ...

However, the practical application of RZABs has been hindered by the slow kinetics and poor durability of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts. Currently ...

Britain's biggest private pension fund has entered the race to buy the lease of the O2, London's best-known entertainment venue. Sky News has learnt that the Universities Superannuation Scheme ...

We think of oxygen as life, sustenance, a literal breath of fresh air. But it's actually a very reactive element. Anyone who's burned a log has witnessed this firsthand. So why do so many life ...
