AUSTIN, Texas — In a project that could be a game changer for the energy transition, researchers at The University of Texas at Austin are exploring a suite of natural catalysts to help produce hydrogen gas from iron-rich rocks without emitting carbon dioxide. (more…)
Ein internationales Forschungsteam in Innsbruck und Genf hat zum ersten Mal den Dimensionsübergang von ultrakalter Quantenmaterie untersucht. Im Bereich zwischen einer und zwei Dimensionen nehmen die Quantenteilchen ihre Welt als 1D oder 2D wahr, abhängig von der Längenskala, auf der sie untersucht werden: Auf kurzen Distanzen ist ihre Welt eindimensional, auf langen Distanzen jedoch zweidimensional. Die Ergebnisse von Korrelationsmessungen wurden soeben in Nature Physics veröffentlicht. (more…)
