Ferromagnetism achieved with pure vanadium oxide by adjusting the oxidation state
Structural analysis of VOX (samples 1, 2, 3) with various oxidation states was performed using electron diffraction patterns (EDP) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). Credit: Advanced Functional Materials (2025). doi:10.1002/adfm.202422966 The research team has succeeded in inducing ferromagnetism, an important property of traditional magnets. This is a compound that was previously unrecognised for such magnetic behavior. Through a…

The study explores how food manufacturers respond to state regulations
Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain When West Virginia recently banned seven artificial food dyes in products sold within its borders, they joined the increase in individual US issues their own regulations regarding food manufacturing practices, acceptable ingredients, or labeling products. As a result, food manufacturers need to decide how to address different requirements across multiple markets. A new study from the…

The soil from beyond the moon suggests a dryer state than the planet facing the earth.
This handout from China’s National Space Agency (CNSA) is an image released by Xinhua News Agency, showing the Lander-Assender combination taken by the Mini Rover after landing on the moon on June 4, 2024. Chinese scientists suggested on Wednesday that the soil and rocks that have returned from the mysterious distance of the moon may be drier than the globe-facing…

Nevada is leading the rest of the state in water recycling, the report found
Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain Nevada is leading the other six states when it comes to recycling the most valuable resources in the Colorado River Basin, a new report confirms. Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, looked at wastewater data that are often inaccessible, and showed that Nevada is leading seven states in reuse rates of 85% of wastewater.…

Ultra-highway at midday state
The noon state is a critical quantum state where n particles are “at the same time” and in another state at the same time. Here, the particles are trapped in two wells within a trap formed by the laser. Thus, the overlapped state consists of all particles in the well on the left and in which they are trapped on…

A hybrid state of light and material can significantly improve the brightness of the OLED
Research and Extended Map Overview. Credit: Advanced Optical Materials (2025). doi:10.1002/adom.202403046 Researchers have developed a theoretical model that predicts a significant increase in the brightness of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) by exploiting a new quantum state called polytons. Integrating Polaritons into OLEDS requires effective discovery of new materials, making practical implementation an exciting challenge. OLED technology has become a…

If FEMA was not present, can the state handle disaster response only?
Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain Imagine a world where hurricanes destroy the Gulf. The United States does not have a federal agency prepared to send supplies, financial aid, or temporary housing assistance quickly. Can the state manage this devastating event on its own? The Federal Emergency Management Agency, usually known as FEMA, is ready to revert consumables within hours of a…

New state of thorium opens possibilities for nuclear clocks
Increase in nuclear excitation probability with a single laser pulse. The symbol η (η) represents the relative strength between the interaction energy and the transition energy. The dashed purple line near the top represents a 10% probability. Credit: Physical Review Letters (2024). DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.133.152503 Why do we have atomic clocks but not nuclear clocks? After all, the nucleus is usually…

Study finds state order mandating genocide education lacks standards to guide teachers
Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain While Hotel Rwanda was a critically acclaimed and commercially successful film, it wasn’t necessarily the best way to teach high school students about a dangerous subject like genocide. But without guidance on how to approach genocide throughout history, showing movies in class may become the default for teachers to address difficult and uncomfortable subject matter. A…
