Astronomers detect gravitational waves from the merging of neutron stars and black holes, but no electromagnetic waves.

In a recent study, a team of international researchers have analysed how defects in hexagonal boron nitride can help in boosting the performance of electronic devices.

A team of scientists from IIT Bombay have recently proposed a novel setup to carry out quantum information processing at room temperatures, using a stack of specially designed layered materials. 

New design in thermoelectric devices can increase both output power and efficiency

A significant problem in electronic devices is the generation of heat during their operation. This phenomenon not only leads to the wastage of electric power but can also damage the device. Thermoelectric materials, which convert heat to electricity and vice versa, can be used to turn the generated heat back into electricity, thereby saving power and avoiding overheating of the device.

In a recent study, researchers show how cleaner air during the lockdown in Delhi, one of the most polluted cities in the world, has led to a hike in solar power generation.

In a recent study, researchers have assessed how successful computer simulations are in matching with solar surface observations.

Researchers use new self-assembly techniques to create microstructures that can be used in early detection of Alzheimer’s disease.
