Researchers have developed a solar cell system that uses mirrors to concentrate solar energy. In addition to electricity, it produces heat for a plant that will capture carbon from industrial ...

Current global climate models (GCMs) support with high confidence the view that rising greenhouse gases and other ...

Astronomers found a strange planetary system 116 light-years away. It orbits a red dwarf star called LHS 1903. The planets are arranged in an unexpected order. The outermost planet is rocky, which ...

A planetary system 116 light-years from Earth has a peculiar pattern. It could flip the script on how planets form, scientists say.

A small red dwarf star in the Milky Way has drawn attention after astronomers mapped four closely orbiting planets around it. The system, known as LHS.

Researchers at the University at Albany are building a computer model that will predict weather-related electrical outages ...

Typically, from what astronomers have gathered thus far, star systems follow a tidy logic: small, rocky worlds huddle close to the warmth of their star, while massive gas giants bloat up in the colder ...

This hypothesis has the advantage of explaining why the rings have a lot of ice and little rock, in contrast to models where a moon strayed inside Saturn’s Roche limit and was pulled apart.

A new study introduces a global probabilistic forecasting model that predicts when and where ionospheric disturbances—measured by the Rate of total electron content (TEC) Index (ROTI)—are likely to ...

Astronomers have discovered a distant solar system, LHS 1903, that defies traditional planet formation theories, prompting a reevaluation of these models.

Mercury, the smallest planet in the solar system, holds an outsized secret that some researchers believe could reshape how ...

Researchers in Taiwan demonstrate that installing solar panels above clam ponds can simultaneously support aquaculture and renewable energy under increasing climate stress. Using real-world farm data, ...
