Adopting zero-emission trucks and buses can save lives and prevent asthma in Illinois
Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain Guided by the living experiences of community partners, Northwestern University scientists simulated the impact of Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEVs) adoption on future air quality in Chicago’s Greater Area. The results are published today in the Geoscience Frontier Journal. Motivated by California’s Advanced Clean Truck (ACT) policy, neighbors for a fair transition to Zero Emissions (NET-Z) Illinois…

Scientists transport protons in trucks, paving the way for antimatter transport
BASE-STEP portable trap system. It is hoisted by a crane through the AD hall and loaded onto a truck. The team monitored all parameters during transport. Credit: CERN Antimatter may sound like the stuff of science fiction, but at the CERN Antiproton Decelerator (AD), scientists create and trap antiprotons every day. BASE experiments can even house them for more than…
