Ukrainian drones struck the Slavneft-YANOS oil refinery in Yaroslavl, one of Russia’s largest refineries, triggering a major fire.

Ukrainian drones struck the Slavneft-YANOS oil refinery in Yaroslavl, one of Russia’s largest refineries, triggering a major fire. The overnight attack reportedly damaged a critical vacuum distillation unit at the site, which processes about 15 million tons of crude a year and produces gasoline, diesel and jet fuel. Zelensky published footage from the burning refinery and said the facility played ...

New researsh shows ice is slippery because of electrical charges — not pressure and friction.For almost 200 years, the prevailing explanation for ice’s slipperiness was that friction or pressure from a skate, boot, or tire melted a microscopic film of water on the surface, creating a lubricating layer. A new study from Saarland University has overturned that long-standing idea.Instead, the true cause lies in the electric fields generated by molecular dipoles. When any object contacts ice, the partial charges in its own molecules interact with the highly ordered dipole arrangement of water molecules in the ice crystal. This electrostatic tug-of-war loosens the topmost layer of the ice lattice, transforming it into a thin, disordered, quasi-liquid film—without any need for heat or significant pressure.Remarkably, this self-lubrication mechanism works even at temperatures approaching absolute zero, where thermal energy is virtually absent and conventional pressure-melting or frictional heating theories completely break down. In those extreme conditions, ice remains slippery simply because its surface molecules are electrically vulnerable.The discovery fundamentally rewrites our understanding of one of nature’s most familiar phenomena. Beyond settling a centuries-old debate, it has immediate practical implications: from designing better winter tires and non-slip surfaces that actually work on ice, to engineering superior skis, ice skates, and even advanced nanomaterials that perform reliably in cryogenic environments.By revealing the dominant role of intermolecular electric forces, the research opens entirely new avenues for controlling friction and adhesion at the molecular scale—potentially transforming fields from winter sports equipment to aerospace and nanotechnology.["Cold Self-Lubrication of Sliding Ice", Physical Review Letters, 2025]Science and facts💡
