A strong European technology partnership to move towards the hydrogen economy
European Commission President, Romano Prodi, today launched the "European Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology" Platform, whose Advisory Council includes key players of the European hydrogen sector, at its first assembly in Brussels. The Platform has the task of drafting a blueprint to smooth the EU's transition from a fossil fuel-based to... view more... (2004-01-20)
Giving platinum catalysts a golden boost for fuel cells
Platinum might outweigh gold in the jewelry market, but as part of an ongoing effort to produce efficient and affordable fuel cells, scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory are studying how gold atoms might enhance the value of the pricier metal. view more (2007-03-28)
Chemical Could Revolutionize Polymer Fuel Cells
Heat has always been a problem for fuel cells. There's usually either too much (ceramic fuel cells) for certain portable uses, such as automobiles or electronics, or too little (polymer fuel cells) to be efficient. view more (2005-08-25)
Clean-vehicle research initiative making progress
A public-private effort to develop technologies for more fuel-efficient automobiles and to investigate the feasibility of hydrogen-based vehicles has made significant progress in most research areas, says a new report from the National Research Council. view more (2008-03-20)
'Dropouts' pinpoint earliest galaxies
Astronomers, conducting the broadest survey to date of galaxies from about 800 million years after the Big Bang, have found 22 early galaxies and confirmed the age of one by its characteristic hydrogen signature at 787 million years post Big Bang. view more (2009-11-09)
Separating the brain's 'bad' from 'good' iron
Duke University chemists are developing ways to bind up iron in the brain to combat the neurological devastation of Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases. view more (2007-08-24)
Meteor no longer prime suspect in great extinction
The greatest mass extinction in Earth's history also may have been one of the slowest, according to a study that casts further doubt on the extinction-by-meteor theory. view more (2007-10-25)
ASU discovery may aid counter-terrorism efforts
The thwarted 2006 London airline bomb plot not only heightened summer travel fears and created new passenger screening inconveniences, but also greatly underscored the urgent need for improved national security measures. view more (2006-10-16)
New research shows water present across the moon's surface
It turns out the moon is a lot wetter than we ever thought. When Apollo astronauts returned from the moon 40 years ago, they brought back souvenirs in the form of moon rocks to be used for scientific analysis, and one of the chief questions was whether there was water to be found in the lunar rocks and soils. view more (2009-09-24)
'Hibernation-on-demand' drug significantly improves survival after extreme blood loss
For the first time, researchers have demonstrated that the administration of minute amounts of inhaled or intravenous hydrogen sulfide, or H2S - the molecule that gives rotten eggs their sulfurous stench - significantly improves survival from extreme blood loss in rats. view more (2008-07-02)
Alloy of hydrogen and oxygen made from water
Water, the only indispensable ingredient of life, is just about the most versatile stuff on Earth. Depending on its temperature we can heat our homes with it, bathe in it, and even strap on skates and glide across it, to name only the most common of its many forms. When subjected to high pressures, however, water can take any of more than 15... view more... (2006-10-27)
Astronomers weigh neutrinos with the universe
Neutrinos, the lightest of the known elementary particles, weigh a billionth (one part in a thousand million) of a hydrogen atom at most, and can account for no more than one-fifth of the dark matter in the Universe, according to findings by astronomers in Cambridge, who used data from the Anglo-Australian telescope 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey... view more...

Scientists grow 'nanonets' able to snare added energy transfer
Using two abundant and relatively inexpensive elements, Boston College chemists have produced nanonets, a flexible webbing of nano-scale wires that multiplies surface area critical to improving the performance of the wires in electronics and energy applications. view more (2008-09-03)
How oxidative stress may help prolong life
Oxidative stress has been linked to aging, cancer and other diseases in humans. Paradoxically, researchers have suggested that small exposure to oxidative conditions may actually offer protection from acute doses. view more (2009-05-29)
Industry Leader Calls for Moves Toward a Hydrogen Economy
Chris Clark, chief executive of Johnson Matthey, last night called on legislators to assess urgently future sustainable energy targets and technology. He was speaking in London on acceptance of the SCI Centenary Medal, which recognises excellence and achievement in the global science and business arena. From his perspective at the head of Johnson... view more... (2002-05-23)
Water is 'designer fluid' that helps proteins change shape, scientists say
Ubiquitous on Earth, water also has been found in comets, on Mars and in molecular clouds in interstellar space. Now, scientists say this common fluid is not as well understood as we thought. view more (2008-08-07)
Jefferson scientists studying the effects of high-dose vitamin C on non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients
Scientists at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and Jefferson's Kimmel Cancer Center have received approval for a first-of-its kind study on the effect high dose vitamin C has on non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients. view more (2008-01-03)
Surprising telescope observations shake up galactic formation theories
A heavy form of hydrogen created just moments after the Big Bang has been found to exist in larger quantities than expected in the Milky Way, a finding that could radically alter theories about star and galaxy formation, says a new international study led by the University of Colorado at Boulder. view more (2006-08-15)
GAMMA RAYS AND DARK MATTER
For a long time it has been known that the Milky Way is surrounded by a (nearly spherical) halo of invisible matter, which contributes at least 90% of the whole galactic mass. Yet, almost nothing is known about the nature of such a dark halo. view more (1999-02-26)
New Milestone in Fuel Cell Development - Double World Record with the SOFC
Scientists at Research Centre Juelich report an important step forward in the international race to develop efficient high-temperature fuel cells. A fuel cell stack put into operation in mid April consisting of just 40 single planar cells delivered a power of 9.2 kilowatts at an average operating temperature of 850°C with hydrogen as the fuel... view more...
