Can a single particle have a temperature? It may seem impossible with our standard understanding of temperature, but columnist Jacklin Kwan finds that it’s not exactly ruled out in the quantum realm ...

Researchers in Iraq have developed biomimetic leaf vein–inspired fins for photovoltaic panels, with reticulate (RET) venation reducing panel temperature by 33.6 C and boosting efficiency by 18% using ...

In a theoretical study published in Physical Review Letters, a University at Buffalo-led team reports that interacting photons and atoms don’t always rapidly reach thermal equilibrium as expected.

A research team led by Professor Toshimasa Fujisawa of the Institute of Science Tokyo (Science Tokyo) has now created a small energy-harvesting device that uses a naturally occurring non-thermal state ...

Researchers at Science Tokyo developed a hydrogen battery that stores and releases hydrogen at just 90 °C by moving hydride ions through a solid electrolyte, offering a safe, efficient, and reversible ...
