“While previous studies mostly focus on original system design and numerical simulation, we report a rational and universal design strategy of thermogalvanic electrolytes, enabling a record-high ...

BarcelonaTech (UPC) in Spain have designed hybrid solar cells that can generate electricity and store it onboard. This is the ...

Cold temperatures induce an accumulation of heat-producing brown and beige cells, so Wolfrum and his team housed mice at 8°C for one week and compared their adipocyte profiles to mice housed at room ...

Next the researchers are working on soybeans and cowpeas; the latter is “a hugely important food-security crop in African ...

Special fat cells known as brown adipocytes help maintain body temperature by converting calorie-rich nutrients into heat.

As the electrons flow through the cell, they generate electricity. On a much larger scale, solar-thermal power plants employ various techniques to concentrate the sun's energy as a heat source.
