The discovery that inert helium can form bonds with iron may reshape our understanding of Earth’s history. Researchers from ...
Scientists have uncovered surprising evidence that helium, a gas long thought to be chemically inert, may actually bond with ...
The energy is derived from the center of the Earth, but scientists are certain the core is very, very slowly cooling off. Keeping the center of the Earth hot are two sources of “fuel ...
These results suggest that similar reactions between helium and iron may have occurred within Earth’s core shortly after its formation, trapping much of the primordial helium-3 in the material that ...
Its loss from magma suggests that the planet has a deep reservoir of primordial helium, and the new compounds suggest that Earth’s iron-rich core could hold some of that helium. But the team ...
Giant regions of the mantle where seismic waves slow down may have formed from subducted ocean crust, a new study finds.
The Nano Materials Research Division at the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS), led by Dr. Tae-Hoon Kim and Dr. Jung ...
Scientists suspect lightweight dark matter might ionize hydrogen in the Milky Way’s core. This could also explain the 511-keV ...
Barnard's Star is a small, dim star, of the type that astronomers call red dwarfs. Consequently, even though it is one of the ...
