The photoelectric effect, first explained by Albert Einstein in 1905, laid the foundation for quantum mechanics. It occurs when high-energy light strikes atoms, releasing electrons. This phenomenon is ...

IEA-PVPS has conceived a new test method and analysis of the impact of curvature in vehicle-integrated photovoltaics (VIPV) surfaces. Over the course of an 8-day summertime trial in south-eastern ...

Over the next few years, climate researchers from Germany aim to achieve a breakthrough in the radiative properties of clouds by describing the corresponding processes not just one-dimensionally, as ...

There are a few reasons we know the sun is not responsible for our recent warming. First, the measure of the incoming sun energy to the earth, solar irradiance, has remained flat or actually DECREASED ...

Many muscles and organs are involved with breathing. If you have difficulty getting enough air, try changing your posture or sleeping position. Breathing exercises may also help. If you breathe ...

LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - With snow in the forecast for Southwest Louisiana, you may be wondering how do you measure snow? Using a ruler or tape measure will work, but an even better method is called ...

The report’s findings suggest that BMI — the measurement traditionally used by medical professionals to determine healthy weight ranges — does not provide a nuanced enough assessment of ...
