Computational tool helps forecast volcano slope collapses and tsunamis
For people living near volcanoes, danger goes well beyond lava flows and clouds of ash. Some explosive eruptions can lead to dramatic collapses of the sides of a volcano, like those at Mount St. Helens, Washington, and Anak Krakatau, Indonesia. The latter triggered tsunamis blamed for most deaths from its historic eruptions in 1883. ⌘ Read more

These findings pave the way for more sustainable low-power elect … ⌘ Read more

Novel method for controlling Faraday rotation in conductive polymers
Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have developed a novel method for controlling the optical rotation of conductive polymer polythiophene in a magnetic field at low voltage.
