The surprising new research behind what actually causes high blood pressure – and the best ways to keep yours in check ...

If you've watched a weather forecast and wondered what low pressure and high pressure systems are all about, we — and the ...

Pressure is one of the canonical thermodynamic variables which control the equilibrium conditions of a physical system and, as such, it has been used for centuries as a control parameter to drive a ...

Researchers develop a new XPS technique enabling surface studies at atmospheric pressure, enhancing real-world chemical ...

This review outlines the research progress in the experiment-oriented discovery of new phases or unique properties under high pressure, including phase transition, abnormal compression, PL ...

The article provides a comprehensive review of the current progress and future prospects of high-pressure-driven chemical synthesis, offering constructive guidance for the design and development of ...

Small, shiny flecks of carbon discovered in rocks in Arizona’s Canyon Diablo in 1967 may have been chemically identical to conventional diamonds, but physically they were strikingly different. The ...

Superconductors promise loss-free electricity, but most only work at extreme cold. Hydrogen-rich materials changed that—yet their inner workings remained hidden because they only exist under enormous ...

Despite strong evidence that salt substitutes can safely lower sodium intake and reduce high blood pressure, very few Americans use them. A new analysis of nearly 20 years of national health data ...

Watch this fascinating demonstration of air pressure at work. Notice how the egg vibrates as the heated air escapes around it, and how it gets smoothly pushed into the bottle by atmospheric pressure.
