Community for discussion about experiments or discoveries made with scientific methods.
Links to articles: please preserve headlines when possible, shortening / replacing as needed. When multiple articles are involved, please consider a text post.
If there is a narrower community available, discussion is encouraged there.
If a topic relates more closely to application of knowledge than obtaining it, discussion is encouraged in c/technology.

Check out my sponsor Brilliant, free for 30 days (and get 20% off a premium subscription!) by using this link: https://brilliant.org/nighthawk The most useful resource I found while investigating phase change materials was the following paper which explores several different types of low temp salt based PCMs: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/316893824_Preparation_and_thermal_properties_of_Glauber's_salt-based_phase-change_materials_for_Qinghai-Tibet_Plateau_solar_greenhouses The key to reducing the melting point of a PCM is to make what is called a eutectic mixture ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eutectic_system ). In this case that is a mixture of two different hydrated salts. When the two come together the freezing point of both is lowered to a temperature which depends on the particular salts used and the ratio between them.

Modelling suggests that the Solar System may have passed through a cold dense cloud 2–3 Myr ago, in agreement with geological evidence from 60Fe and 244Pu isotopes, putting Earth in direct contact with the dense interstellar medium with potentially substantial impacts on its climate.

An IOC-funded study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine earlier this month suggests transgender athletes could be at a physical disadvantage.
