For a long time, researchers have thought that combining palladium and ruthenium could lead to improved and novel properties for industrial applications. However, the two elements do not readily mix ...

A new experimental discovery, led by researchers at the University of Minnesota, demonstrates that the chemical element ruthenium (Ru) is the fourth single element to have unique magnetic properties ...

A new finding demonstrates that the chemical element ruthenium (Ru) is the fourth single element to have unique magnetic properties at room temperature. The discovery could be used to improve sensors, ...

Scientists have used the rare element ruthenium to confirm that the Chicxulub impactor, which caused the mass extinction of dinosaurs, was most likely a carbonaceous asteroid. This asteroid, formed ...
