  • Scientists from Tomsk took part in United Scientific Councils of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences

    3 jun 2024
    In Novosibirsk, meetings of 11 United Scientific Councils of SB RAS took place. Anatoly Maznoy – Deputy Director for Science at Tomsk Scientific Center of SB RAS – spoke at the USC on physical sciences, presenting a report on the modification of powder and granular materials by applying a rare-earth metal (REM) coatings. This implementation-ready result was achieved through successful collaboration of several scientific divisions of the Tomsk Scientific Center.

  • TSC SB RAS researchers studied patterns and mechanisms of the formation of the surface alloys

    20 feb 2024
    The results of a comprehensive study conducted at Tomsk Scientific Center SB RAS showed mechanisms of the formation of the W–Zr surface alloys. Based on the obtained results, a scheme was proposed describing the formation of the surface alloys (SAs) upon low-energy high-current electron beam (LEHCEB) processing. The study was published in Vacuum.

  • A new nanopaticles based technology to manufacture environmentally safe filtering materials

    11 dec 2023
    Scientists from Tomsk State University, Tomsk Polytechnic University and Tomsk Scientific Center of Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences published a monograph “Materials with polyfunctional properties based on nanoparticles modified fibers” which presents an advanced technology for manufacturing nanofilters to purify liquid and gas media.

  • The TSC SB RAS researchers introduced carbide-containing materials produced using plastic waste

    27 nov 2023

    The researchers of the Tomsk Scientific Center produced valuable titanium carbides using the highly exothermic reaction between PET bottles and Ti powder as well as a hydrogen-containing gaseous by-product which can be used as fuel for heat and power units. These carbides are similar in their properties to the reference ones. The research is published in Green Chemical Engineering.

  • 9-07-2024   Employees prefer human performance monitors over AI, study finds Organizations using AI to monitor employees' behavior and productivity can expect them to complain more, be less productive and want to quit more - unless the technology can be framed as supporting their development, research finds.
  • 9-07-2024   New extremely fast carbon storage technology A new way to store carbon captured from the atmosphere works much faster than current methods without the harmful chemical accelerants they require.
  • 9-07-2024   Innovative, highly accurate AI model can estimate lung function just by using chest x-rays An artificial intelligence (AI) model that can estimate with high accuracy a person's lung function just by using a chest radiograph has been successfully developed.
  • 8-07-2024   Hexagonal perovskite oxides: Electrolytes for next-generation protonic ceramic fuel cells Researchers have identified hexagonal perovskite-related oxides as materials with exceptionally high proton conductivity and thermal stability. Their unique crystal structure and large number of oxygen vacancies enable full hydration and high proton diffusion, making these materials ideal candidates as electrolytes for next-generation protonic ceramic fuel cells that can operate at intermediate temperatures without degradation.
  • 8-07-2024   Visualizing short-lived intermediate compounds produced during chemical reactions Immobilizing small synthetic molecules inside protein crystals proves to be a promising avenue for studying intermediate compounds formed during chemical reactions, scientists report. By integrating this method with time-resolved serial femtosecond crystallography, they successfully visualized reaction dynamics and rapid structural changes occurring within reaction centers immobilized inside protein crystals. This innovative strategy holds significant potential for the intelligent design of drugs, catalysts, and functional materials.
  • 5-07-2024   Ionic liquids: 'Don't shake it' Chemists have develop innovative ionic liquid synthesis and purification technology.
  • 5-07-2024   Fresh wind blows from historical supernova A mysterious remnant from a rare type of supernova recorded in 1181 has been explained for the first time. Two white dwarf stars collided, creating a temporary 'guest star,' now labeled supernova (SN) 1181, which was recorded in historical documents in Japan and elsewhere in Asia. However, after the star dimmed, its location and structure remained a mystery until a team pinpointed its location in 2021. Now, through computer modeling and observational analysis, researchers have recreated the structure of the remnant white dwarf, a rare occurrence, explaining its double shock formation. They also discovered that high-speed stellar winds may have started blowing from its surface within just the past 20-30 years. This finding improves our understanding of the diversity of supernova explosions, and highlights the benefits of interdisciplinary research, combining history with modern astronomy to enable new discoveries about our galaxy.
  • 5-07-2024   Engineers find a way to protect microbes from extreme conditions Researchers have now developed a new way to make microbes hardy enough to withstand extreme conditions such as heat and the manufacturing processes used to formulate the microbes into powders or pills for long-term storage.
  • 5-07-2024   Innovative battery design: More energy and less environmental impact A new electrolyte design for lithium metal batteries could significantly boost the range of electric vehicles. Researchers have radically reduced the amount of environmentally harmful fluorine required to stabilize these batteries.
