- New double-pane quantum dot solar windows generate power with better efficiency Thu, 4 Jan 18, 2:10amResearchers at an American national laboratory have now employed quantum dots for double-pane solar windows that offer shading, insulation, and, of course, generate energy - with greater efficiency...
- 'We were blown away' - researchers eliminate obstacle to fusion energy Thu, 16 Nov 17, 1:54amFusion powers the sun, and if we could harness it here on Earth, we could obtain unlimited clean energy. Scientists have been working on that goal for years, and now researchers from Los Alamos National Laboratory, Massachusetts...

- Wildfire aerosols not handled well in climate modeling Wed, 10 Jul 13, 5:01pmFrom Los Alamos National Laboratory: Wildfires may contribute more to global warming than previously predicted They suggest that fire emissions could contribute a lot more to the observed climate warming than current estimates...
- Mysterious ‘electron stash’ found hidden among Van Allen belts Tue, 5 Mar 13, 7:55amYou’d think the science on the Van Allen Radiation belts was long ago considered “settled science”. Nope. And yet, while we discover new things like this, some insist we fully understand all aspects of the...
- Largest nuclear bomb dismantled to date in the US arsenal, the B53 Wed, 26 Oct 11, 4:40amAccording to Wikipedia, this warhead (9.1 megatons) was apparently never tested, although an experimental TX-46 predecessor design was detonated 28 June 1958 as Hardtack Oak, which detonated at a yield of 8.9 Megatons. From...
