The new drug, Paxlovid, significantly reduced hospitalization and death in adult patients and is authorized for emergency use in the United States. On December 22,…
By removing electricity from equation, discovery overcomes yearslong hurdle in robotics. When you think of a robot, images of R2-D2 or C-3PO might come to…
A computer is suspended from the ceiling. Delicate lines and loops of silvery wires and tubes connect gold-colored platforms. It seems to belong in a…
Berkeley Lab research efforts in advanced materials and cost analyses give major boost to an overlooked technology. Could a tank of ice or hot water…
A giant star faces several possible fates when it dies in a supernova. That star can either be completely destroyed, become a black hole, or…
A supernova is the colossal explosion of a star. Scientists have identified several types of supernova. One type, called a “core-collapse” supernova, occurs in the…
High energy density (HED) laboratory plasmas are perhaps the most extreme states of matter ever produced on Earth. Normal plasmas are one of the four…
