The practical of hard carbon (HC) anodes in sodium-ion batteries is primarily limited by their unsatisfactory initial coulombic efficiency (ICE), cycling stability and rate performance, which are ...

A new study shows that adapting sulfur chemistry in sodium-sulfur batteries via MoS2 nanosheets improves efficiency and ...

Five years ago, scientists watched in wonder as synthetic bacteria grew and split into daughter cells. The bacteria’s extremely stripped-down genome still supported its entire life cycle. It was a ...

The team simulated a living cell at nanoscale resolution and recapitulated how every molecule within that cell behaved over the course of a full cell cycle. The work took many years: vast computer ...

The researchers, led by chemistry professor Zan Luthey-Schulten at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, present their findings in the journal Cell. In two videos, researchers describe the work ...

(Nanowerk News) By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell — from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell division — scientists have opened a new frontier of ...

A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows cytoplasm (blue cubes), mRNA degradation machinery molecules (pink), and sugar transporters (brown). Right half adds the membrane ...

Abstract: Cascaded H-bridge (CHB) multilevel converters are gaining increasing interest in both medium-voltage drive and grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage applications due to their ...

Researchers discovered that a long-misunderstood protein plays a key role in helping chromosomes latch onto the right “tracks” during cell division. Instead of acting like a motor, it works more like ...
