Dongguk University scientists reviewed recent advances and challenges to battery technologies for the #GreenTransition, and identified research needed to develop alternatives to lithium-ion, such as potassium-ion batteries. @stam_journal @NIMS_PR #energy #sustainability #SDG7.

.@UTokyo_IIS and @IER_Fukushima researchers found that treated water released from the #Fukushima #Nuclear Power Plant has negligible contribution to oceanic tritium concentration beyond the vicinity of the discharge site, even in climate change scenarios. #environment.

.@HKUniversity geologists suggest that Earth’s early continental crust more than 2.5 billion years ago was likely formed through deep Earth processes called mantle plumes, rather than the #platetectonics that shape continents today. @ScienceAdvances #geochemistry #earthscience.

🌏 🧬For the first time, @TohokuUniPR scientists have uncovered evidence that submarine #hydrothermal alteration may have been a significant source of phosphorus on early #Earth, enriching early oceans with this essential nutrient for life. #geology #history.

.@Official_UPD biologists, with collaborators in the US, confirm three new species of Philippine forest mice discovered in Mindoro island. This raises the number of endemic mammals on the island, cementing it as a unique evolutionary hotspot.

Scientists from @OsakaMetUniv_en have identified a gene that, when activated by metabolic #stress, damages pancreatic β-cells — the cells responsible for insulin production and blood sugar control — pushing them toward dysfunction. @jbiolchem #diabetes #health.

Researchers from @UOsaka_en invent a way to efficiently prepare the “magic states” necessary for #quantum computers to be resistant to errors, and dramatically decrease overhead. Their technique involves working with #qubits at the physical or zeroth level. @PRX_Quantum.

Using a new materials called Glass-Nano, a research team led by @SUTDsg has created nanoscale #glass structures with near-perfect reflectance🪩🔦 overturning long-held assumptions about what low-index materials can do in #photonics. @ScienceMagazine.

Why do the #Moon’s two "faces" look different? The secret may be buried within minute amounts of halogens found in lunar samples, according to research by @Ehime_Univ and collaborators in Germany and the Netherlands. @NatureComms #space.
