Almost two-thirds of the world's population is affected by the monsoon—the annual arrival of intense rains in areas north and south of the Equator. These drenching rains tend to arrive during each ...

Petrol stations, published in the Roads issue (AR June 2025) Hydrogen has been posited as a potentially transformative green ...

By considering all these factors and mapping where they are present on Earth, the researchers came to the conclusion that there could be plenty of hydrogen waiting to be tapped into – as there is at ...

Researchers at the University of Oxford, Durham University and the University of Toronto have detailed the geological ingredients required to find clean sources of natural hydrogen beneath our ...

The first thermonuclear bomb test (hydrogen bomb), Ivy Mike, was conducted by the United States in 1952.The Soviet Union tested the Tsar Bomba in 1961, which was the most powerful bomb ever detonated.

Also called a thermonuclear weapon, it relies on a small atomic bomb to kickstart the fusion of two hydrogen isotopes: deuterium and tritium. The energy unleashed by one of these bombs can easily ...

However, China’s device does not rely on nuclear fusion. Instead, it uses magnesium hydride in a chemical reaction to produce hydrogen and heat, making it a non-nuclear hydrogen-based explosive.

This heavier isotope is now known as deuterium. Water (H 2 0), as you are likely painfully aware from school, is an inorganic compound comprised of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.

“Many problematic processes in cells have to do with improper hydrogen flow,” Zhang said. “The metabolic pathways go wrong. For example, cancer cells divide really quickly, and they change their ...

All the deuterium atoms—an isotope of hydrogen with double its mass—were at locations in the titanium crystal known as tetrahedral positions. However, 11% of the hydrogen atoms present were at sites ...
