Over the past decade, vehicles have become deadly weapons in various attacks around the world. These incidents have had different motives and perpetrators, including Islamic extremists, far-right groups, and individuals with personal grudges or mental health issues. The Magdeburg Christmas market at
In Magdeburg, Germany, a tragic event unfolded as a black BMW plowed into a bustling Christmas market, leaving five dead and hundreds injured. The man behind the wheel was identified as a 50-year-old Saudi psychiatrist, Taleb A, who had resided in Germany for nearly two decades. Authorities, though
Plants use something called Light-Harvesting Complex II (LHCII) to efficiently capture light for photosynthesis. Scientists have been trying to understand how LHCII does this so well. They use quantum chemistry, molecular dynamics, and statistical mechanics to study the pigment molecules in LHCII. I
Get ready for a celestial event! As the Northern Hemisphere experiences the longest night of the year, marking the winter solstice, there's a special treat in store: the Ursids meteor shower. This shower, active from December 17 to 26, reaches its peak the night of December 21 into the morning of De
Ever wondered what's happening with carbon in China? Recently, there's been a buzz about carbon emission trading in different regions. This is a big deal because it's like a market where companies and factories can buy and sell the right to emit carbon. Sounds confusing? Well, let's break it down.
Scientists have been exploring a new way to fight climate change by removing carbon from the oceans using electrochemical systems. These systems use a process called alkalinity-swings to get rid of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). This can be done in two ways: by releasing carbon dioxide gas or by
Imagine a world where your car's exhaust doesn't harm the environment. That's what scientists are working towards with a material called Cu-SAPO-34. This clever substance turns nasty nitrogen oxides into harmless nitrogen and water vapor. But how did they create such a wonder material? They started
Imagine a world where Terminator's killer robots aren't just after Sarah Connor and her son, but are also meddling in major historical events. That's precisely what Dynamite Entertainment is bringing to its new comic series. Written by Declan Shalvey and illustrated by David O'Sullivan, the series i
Did you know that a simple organic compound called 2, 5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid (H4dhta) can be used to create super conductive materials? Scientists have been using H4dhta to build metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for a while now. But there's something special about the coordination polymers (CPs
Biochemistry is a big deal for medical students. It helps them understand how the body works and how to treat diseases. But here's a problem: many students in Riyadh are forgetting this vital information over time. This is bad, because a solid grasp of biochemistry is key to becoming a good doctor.
