Optimizing accuracy and efficacy in data-driven materials discovery for the solar production of hydrogen

Posted by klaurent Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: Hector D. Abruna | Summary:The production of hydrogen fuels, via water splitting, is of practical relevance for meeting global energy needs and mitigating the environmental consequences of fossil-fuel-based transportation. Water photoelectrolysis has been proposed as a viable approach for generating hydrogen, provided that stable and inexpensive photocatalysts with conversion efficiencies over 10% can […]

The wide-field infrared transient explorer (WINTER)

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Nathan P. Lourie | Summary:The Wide-Field Infrared Transient Explorer (WINTER) is a new infrared time-domain survey instrument which will be deployed on a dedicated 1 meter robotic telescope at Palomar Observatory. WINTER will perform a seeing-limited time domain survey of the infrared (IR) sky, with a particular emphasis on identifying r-process material in […]
