“#Experiments confirm light-squeezing 2-D exciton-polaritons can exist” Researchers pinpoint the conditions for forming unusual 2D exciton-polaritons in TMDs. Credit: Fabien Vialla Measurements of the optical response of 2-D transition-metal dichalcogenides have now pinpointed real material systems in which a hypothesized light-squeezing quasiparticle can form. The 2-D exciton-polariton, which couples light to bound electron-hole pairs in…
“#Marine life found in ancient Antarctica ice helps solve a carbon dioxide puzzle from the ice age” Credit: Chris Fogwill, Author provided Evidence of minute amounts of marine life in an ancient Antarctic ice sheet helps explain a longstanding puzzle of why rising carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels stalled for hundreds of years as Earth warmed…
“#COVID-19 demonstrates why wealth matters” Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain While COVID-19 has impacted all individuals, the impact has not been equal. In a new national Socioeconomic Impact of COVID-19 survey, the Social Policy Institute (SPI) at Washington University in St. Louis found that liquid assets increased the likelihood that an individual could practice social distancing….
“#Big data analytics shows how America’s individualism complicates coronavirus response” A map showing the “total frontier experience,” or the number of years each county spent on the frontier. No data is available for counties shown in white. (Contributed image) To understand America’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, researchers started with data from more than 200…
“#Can a human drug stop life-threatening bleeding in dogs with traumatic injuries?” Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain Sean Majoy, V06, VG13, was far too familiar with the toll that traumatic bleeding can take on dogs before he joined Cummings School as an emergency and critical care veterinarian and clinical assistant professor. Majoy served on active duty…
“#Heat-detecting drones are a cheaper, more efficient way to find koalas” Credit: Pixabay Last summer’s catastrophic bushfires burnt about one quarter of New South Wales’ best koala habitat. On the state’s mid-north coast, an estimated 30% of koalas were killed. Collecting the most accurate possible information about surviving koala populations, in both burnt and unburnt areas, will help save…
“#Engineers use electricity to clean up toxic water” Credit: CC0 Public Domain A team of engineers may be one step closer to cleaning up heavily contaminated industrial wastewater streams. Researchers from the School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering developed an electrochemical oxidation process with the aim of cleaning up complex wastewater that contained a toxic…
“#Toward improved wound healing: Chemical synthesis of a trefoil factor peptide” Studies demonstrated that trefoil factor peptides are locally produced to combat inflammation and injuries of the gastrointestinal tract by accelerating wound healing. Credit: Universität Wien The fascinating family of trefoil factor peptides brings hope to both research and industry to improve the treatment of…
