Power-to-Liquid (PtL) processes, which produce liquid fuels from captured CO₂ and green H₂ via methanol synthesis or Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, offer a promising route to sustainable carbon-based energy carriers for sectors that cannot be readily electrified. [more]

Advanced LIGO (the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory) is designed to measure the quadrupolar strain of space itself arising from passing gravitational waves and in 2015 made the first observation of a binary black hole merger [Abbot et al, Phys Rev A, 116, 061102 (2016)]. [more]

The increasingly severe impacts of climate change demand us to: (a) reduce energy use (b) decarbonise existing high emissions industrial processes and (c) rapidly replace of our present range of carbon-emitting fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas) by a suite of carbon-zero and carbon-neutral fuels.
