Some solid materials can cool down or heat up when pressure is applied or released. This behavior enables cooling and heating ...

Tiny changes at the atomic scale can determine the future of clean energy. In a new study, Tohoku University researchers have revealed how the precise coordination environment surrounding a single ...

Oxygen deprivation, or hypoxia, triggers a physiological response mediated by the key transcription factor hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1). HIF-1 is a heterodimer consisting of the unstable HIF-1α ...

Magnetic materials are materials studied and used mainly for their magnetic properties. The magnetic response of a materials is largely determined by the magnetic dipole moment associated with the ...
