A miniature particle accelerator

QUANTUM PHYSICS

Researchers from Ruhr University Bochum, Institut polytechnique de Grenoble and the University of Latvia created electron droplets that behave like a nano particle accelerator. The electrons formed a Coulomb fluid — a strongly correlated quantum state where they move collectively. These insights open up new avenues in the study of quantum materials and the simulation of exotic states of matter. The... read more

Roadmap for Linking CO₂ Sources and Sinks

CARBON MANAGEMENT

Researchers from Fraunhofer UMSICHT, Forschungszentrum Jülich, RWTH Aachen University and Ruhr University Bochum have developed a detailed roadmap outlining the opportunities, challenges and key steps toward industrial-scale CO₂ electrolysis. By analyzing over 5,000 publications, the team bridges the gap between academic progress in CO₂ electroreduction (CO₂R) and real-world point sources... read more

Prof. Corina Andronescu awarded

Lecturer Award of the Chemical Industry Fund

She is considered an award-winning pioneer in electrochemical catalysis, and now she has received another award. This year's Lecturer Award of the Chemical Industry Fund goes to Materials Chain member Prof. Corina Andronescu as a particularly outstanding young scientist. Corina Andronescu, born in 1987, studied chemical engineering at the Polytechnic University of Bucharest (UPB) in Romania, where... read more
