Researchers have developed a novel way to reach the unexplored mesosphere using lightweight flying structures that can float using sunlight. The devices, which were built at Harvard and other institutions, levitated in low-pressure conditions and demonstrated potential for climate sensing and exploration.
Hydrogen and carbon monoxide adsorb onto platinum atoms in nanoscale voids, with hydrogen diffusing faster due to smaller size. The team's findings highlight the importance of engineering voids for next-generation sensors and gas separation.
New research by Prof. Andrew Kowalski of the University of Granada calls into question current methods of studying photosynthesis, highlighting the importance of non-diffusive gas transport in the process. This discovery has significant implications for fields such as biology and micrometeorology.
The OU research team has made significant discoveries on gas and liquids transport in shale gas reservoirs, developing a quad porosity model that accurately predicts phase behavior and permeability. The model's predictions show improved well performance and prolific production of rich gas-condensate fluids.
