In an ultra-cold, high-magnetic-field setting, ZrTe5 defies expectations by showing quantum heat oscillations. Researchers found that phonons, normally dominant in semimetals, behave more like ...

This article was originally published with the title “ The Conduction of Heat in Solids ” in Scientific American Magazine Vol. 207 No. 6 (December 1962), p. 92 doi:10.1038 ...

We can now influence heat conduction by specifically designing the molecular structure.” As a consequence, the researchers would like to apply this new knowledge to the versatile MOFs, as heat ...

Advances in drilling technologies are opening up new opportunities for geothermal energy. Andrew Wade reports.

"When a normal metal such as silver or copper is placed in strong magnetic fields at temperatures close to absolute zero, that is −273.15°C, its heat conduction is expected to oscillate—a ...

Complex materials such as organic compound semiconductors or the microporous metal-organic frameworks known as MOFs are already being used for numerous applications such as OLED displays, solar cells, ...

Formula 1 tires manage heat during a race through a combination of rubber compound design, internal structure, and precise ...

Exercising outside? Bone conduction headphones keep your ears open and aware of your surroundings while your music stays loud and clear. That's why they're great workout headphones for ...

If you’ve been in the market for a new pair of earbuds or headphones, you might have come across a unique technology called bone conduction. Offering an alternative to the traditional way that ...
