Researchers have developed fuel cells with high power density of 400 watts per kilogram, which have so far only been achieved in considerably larger systems weighing several hundred grams. The fuel cell is light enough to power a twenty-centimeter helicopter.
When a factory machine breaks down, it’s hard to know what to do. Production often comes to a standstill until the error has finally been pinpointed – and that can take hours. The causes are legion; in many cases it is all due to a single interrupted contact. Consequently, many manufacturers have long been hoping for a technology that will work without vulnerable power and data cables.

The world's largest magnet for imaging in brain research arrived at the Jülich Research Center. Once installed, it will have a field strength of 9.4 Tesla (T), which is almost 200,000 times the strength of the Earth's magnetic field. Brain researchers at Jülich plan to use the new system, nicknamed "9point4," to visualize previously inaccessible structures and metabolic processes of the brain.
Siemens Energy announced today that it will establish its U.S. wind turbine R&D competence center in Boulder, Colorado. The facility is expected to employ an estimated 50 people and will focus on atmospheric science ...
