New book ‘102 Things to Do with a Hole in the Ground‘ spotlights global reclamation projects
Stories of reinvented coal mining regions, regenerated communities and rebuilt ecosystems are told in a new book published this month.
Phys.org says French researchers used gold nanoparticles to study acoustic vibrations and associated energy dissipation. The research could have application in the next-generation of light detectors, optical circuits and cancer therapies:
Sudhiranjan Tripathy at the A*STAR Institute of Materials Research and Engineering and co-workers, collaborating with Arnaud Arbouet and colleagues from the National Center of Scientific Research (CNRS) in France, have now analyzed the effect of different environments on individual gold nanoparticles, their acoustic vibrations and associated energy dissipation.
