In brief Phosphorus is a key molecule for life, but the element is relatively rare on Earth. However, a very high concentration of phosphorus was necessary to set the first chemical reactions in ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich have created the heaviest Schrödinger cat to date. For this, they combined an oscillating crystal with a superconducting circuit. They hope to better understand the reason ...

Overuse of our tendons can cause painful medical conditions for which only limited treatment options exist. Researchers have now deciphered an important molecular mechanism that triggers these ...

In recent years, the night sky has filled with satellites from rapidly expanding constellations in low Earth orbit, driven by a booming space industry. While this development brings exciting ...

Researchers from ETH Zurich are using a new method for digital timber construction in a real project for the first time. The load-bearing timber modules, which are prefabricated by robots, will be ...

The MONKEE climbing robot has two arms and three adhesion points and can adeptly move around in trees, both vertically and sideways, adapting to different trunk shapes and surfaces. This allows it to ...

ETH Zurich researchers have made the first-ever loophole-free Bell test with superconducting circuits. They have confirmed that the conventional concepts of causality do not apply in the quantum world ...

Storing hydrogen is expensive and inefficient. In a pilot plant on ETH Zurich’s Hönggerberg campus, ETH researchers are showing how this could soon change. The researchers react the hydrogen with iron ...
