Geothermal wells play a key role in the development, understanding and utilization of geothermal resources. Understanding the thermodynamic processes that occur within geothermal wells assists with their design, the interpretation of downhole measurements, and the optimization of reservoir management. However, the behavior of geothermal wells can be difficult or impossible ...
Two-dimensional materials (2DM) and their heterostructures offer tunable electrical and optical properties, primarily modifiable through electrostatic gating and twisting. While electrostatic gating is a well-established method for manipulating 2DM, achieving real-time control over interfacial properties remains a frontier in exploring 2DM physics and advanced quantum device technology. Current methods, often ...

Cryogenic electron imaging of macromolecules and subcellular components related to human healthMy talk will cover recent advances in the application of near atomic-resolution single-particle cryoEM for the structural and functional analysis of macromolecules, revealing novel information that could not be predicted by AlphaFold. Additionally, I will discuss the potential power of cryovEM and cryoET in studying cells and tissues, with implications ...
Commissioner Judy Chang will discuss the role of Federal regulation in the rapidly changing American energy landscape. She will focus on trends, lessons learned, and regional variations across the electricity and gas sectors, and how regulators work to ensure reliable and affordable energy despite increasingly uncertain future conditions.Speaker: Judy Chang, ...
