PORTLAND, Maine — Water takes longer to heat up or cool down compared to air. That's because of something called heat capacity. Water has a high heat capacity. In comparison, air has a low heat ...

minimizing the use of high specific heat capacity materials and removing nonheat-generating components like the external battery case." At just one-50th the size of conventional batteries, this ...

By using carefully timed laser pulses of specific wavelengths to heat the material, followed by the use of pulses at another wavelength to probe the resulting changes, the team achieved real-time ...
