Le laser à rayons X suisse révèle comment les électrons interagissent
Une nouvelle technique de rayons X au SwissFEL permet d’observer les électrons «danser» ensemble – et pourrait un jour montrer pourquoi l’information quantique se perd si facilement.
En Afriques, les véhicules électriques pourraient s’imposer plus tôt qu’on ne l’imagine
Dans de nombreux pays africains, les véhicules électriques pourraient devenir économiquement compétitifs bien avant 2040.
Osselet aux rayons X: une nouvelle technique révèle ses structures en un temps record
Des scientifiques du PSI démontrent avec un osselet comment les structures de matériaux biologiques peuvent être analysées en un temps record, de l’échelle nanométrique à l’échelle millimétrique.
Un nouveau procédé pour des batteries tout solide stables et de longue durée
Des scientifiques du PSI ont développé un nouveau procédé qui rend les batteries tout solide plus résistantes et allonge leur durée de vie.
