Researchers have devised a new technique to study solvation shells, providing insights into ion pair formation and electron binding energies. This discovery is key for advancing knowledge across many scientific areas.

Researchers from the Fritz Haber Institute, Sorbonne University, and Uppsala University have made a groundbreaking discovery that advances our understanding of ion behavior in solutions. Their findings were recently published in the journal Nature Communications.

VANCOUVER, Wash. – Scientists have detected unusual seismic activity around Mount Adams in southern Washington, but say it’s no cause for alarm.

Nestled in the Cascades about 50 miles from Yakima, Mount Adams typically only experiences about 1 earthquake every 2–3 years, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. But the agency registered six small quakes just in September alone, ranging in magnitude from 0.9 to 2.0.

The USGS said they were the most earthquakes detected at Mount Adams in a month since 1982, when monitoring began.

In a first for Sotheby’s, the famed auction house will sell a painting made by a humanoid robot — and it’s expected to fetch up to a whopping $180,000.

The robot, known as Ai-Da, created the painting of renowned mathematician and computer scientist Alan Turing entitled “AI God” with its own hydraulically powered hands.
