wire - news in brief

Two networks of telescopes zoom into a distant galaxy: they show, how pictures of a black hole and its jets become possible - and they confirm that there are strong magnetic fields there.

The Sun should be capable of eruptions that are a hundred times stronger than the strongest flare ever recorded. This is shown by an analysis of over 50,000 sun-like stars. Stars similar to the Sun produce a gigantic outburst of radiation on average about once every hundred years per star. Such superflares release more energy than a trillion hydrogen bombs and make all previously recorded solar flares pale in comparison.

About 250 scientists from 14 countries will explore the latest findings from pioneering global research at the International Conference on Complexity and Topology in Quantum Matter CT.QMAT24 in Dresden from September 23 to 27.

The lightest of all'elements, hydrogen, is in great demand due to its promising role as a sustainable resource in the energy transition. A team from Leipzig University and TU Dresden, as part of the Hydrogen Isotopes 1,2,3H Research Training Group, has made an important breakthrough in the efficient and cost-effective provision of isotopes.

When water is split electrolytically, the result is typically hydrogen - and useless oxygen. Instead of oxygen, you can also produce a useful product.

Europe wants to be the first continent to be climate-neutral by 2050. At least that is what the "European Green Deal" envisages.

Physicist Kai Schmitz offers insights into the evolution of the universe and questions of cosmology Kai Schmitz 's field of work lies at the interface of particle physics and cosmology; his favourite subject is gravitational waves from the early universe. In an interview with Christina Hoppenbrock, the research group leader at the Institute of Theoretical Physics provides insights into the evolution of the universe, methods of research and still unresolved questions about cosmology.

The Technische Universität Ilmenau is researching high-performance components and their properties in a large-scale federal project to make the production of hydrogen from sunlight more stable, efficient and cost-effective.
