Water is essential for all chemistry and life, yet understanding how it interacts with dissolved ions—such as sodium and ...

MG’s EX code meant “experimental,” and EX135 proved it at 203.5 mph; EXE : ION revives that nerve with electroaerodynamic thrust inspired by MIT’s solid-state f ...

A lithium ion battery essentially works by using lithium (ions?!) to ferry electrons back and forth between a positive and a negative electrode. These are basically electrical freighters that load up ...

Lithium (Li)-ion batteries serve us well, powering our laptops, tablets, cell phones and a host of other gadgets and devices. However, for future automotive applications, we will need rechargeable ...

Magnesium ion battery technology has emerged as a promising alternative to lithium‐ion systems due to the natural abundance, high volumetric capacity and enhanced safety profile of magnesium. The ...

In recent years, rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) have attracted a growing number of researchers in the field of electrochemical energy storage systems due to several inherent strengths. First ...

Lithium-ion batteries are the undisputed top dog of the battery world at the moment, but magnesium-ion devices have the potential to steal the crown – if scientists can crack the problem of finding an ...

The presence of ions affects the structure and dynamics of water on a multitude of length and time scales. New results show that the water environment of specific pairs of magnesium and sulfate ions ...

Scientists have pioneered a method to enable the reversible chemistry of magnesium metal in the noncorrosive carbonate-based electrolytes and tested the concept in a prototype cell. The technology ...

In cells transfer RNA (tRNA) translates genetic information from the encoding messenger RNA (mRNA) for protein synthesis. New results from ultrafast spectroscopy and in-depth theoretical calculations ...
