Stacker puts together a list of facts you learned in school that are no longer true.

High-energy cosmic radiation damages cells and DNA, causing cancer, and secondary neutrons—generated especially from the planetary surfaces—can be up to 20 times more harmful than other radiations.

New gasket tech boosts safety and efficiency in PEM fuel cells and water electrolyzers by strengthening mechanical support and improving gas-tight sealing. (Nanowerk News) A research team in South ...

The world of quantum physics is mysterious. But what happens when that realm of subatomic particles is placed under immense pressure? A team led by physicists at Washington University in St. Louis has ...

A new wearable uses boron nitride nanotubes and AI to monitor knee torque in real time, offering accurate, low-cost joint health tracking in daily environments. (Nanowerk News) A research team from ...

In an elegant fusion of art and science, researchers at Rice University have achieved a major milestone in nanomaterials engineering by uncovering how boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs)—touted for their ...

ABSTRACT: Molar binding energy of the boron nitride single-walled zigzag and armchair nanotubes is calculated within the qua-si-classical approach. We find that, in the range of ultra small radii, the ...
