Hydrogen is a possible next generation energy solution, and it can be produced from sunlight and water using photocatalysts. A research group has now developed a strategy that greatly increases the amount of hydrogen produced using hematite photocatalysts. In addition to boosting the high efficiency of what is thought to be the world's highest performing photoanode, this strategy will be applied to artificial photosynthesis and solar water-splitting technologies via university-industry collaborations.

Sean and Sara Watkins are back and in reflective mood

California’s Sean and Sara Watkins are akin to royalty in American folk circles, firstly as founding members of the hugely successful Nickel Creek, and secondly as hosts of an 18-year residency at LA’s Largo club, where they perform alongside invited guests. Brother Sister draws on both strands of their history. Like its self-titled 2015 predecessor, the album sets aside the pizzazz of Nickel Creek for a down-home approach, but instead of boisterous, star-studded cover versions come five original songs and a minimal musical palette.

Alternating on lead, the pair’s vocals remain a model of sibling harmony, while the interplay between Sean’s intricate guitar picking and Sara’s elegant fiddle is similarly impressive – the breakneck bluegrass instrumental Bella and Ivan is a case in point. Mostly, however, the mood is reflective. Lafayette and Miles of Desert Sand chronicle the search for a better life, and Fake Badge, Real Gun is an artful snipe at Trump – “Throw your tantrums but the truth will be waiting”. Warren Zevon’s forlorn Accidentally Like a Martyr fits in neatly, while Charley Jordan’s ribald Keep It Clean is a gleeful example of a Largo session.

The Liverpool singer-songwriter shifts effortlessly from alt-R&B to melodic, country-tinged pop

“You can be very creative using very little… I actually prefer having less to work with because that way you need to use more of your imagination,” the Liverpool-born Jetta told The Line of Best Fit last month. That spareness and sense of freedom is audible in her work, which she writes, records and produces herself. Her sound recalls the alt-R&B of Kelela or the xx, or the intimate balladry of Jessie Ware, but where mere copyists would hang endlessly on a yearning chorus and a dark blue mood, Jetta knows when to shift it up with a smart melodic left turn or a deft change of pace.

Now based in London, she’s been singing since she was four – her father was a recording engineer, her mother a choirmaster – and performing solo and singing backing vocals for the likes of Paloma Faith since she was 17, streamlining the powerful, punchy, soulful pop of her 2014 EP, Start a Riot, to a subtler, smokier style. That experience tells in her rich voice, the versatility of which recalls FKA twigs or Martina Topley-Bird. She switches easily from the bruised and contemplative Friend to the popping UK garage bop of Livin’ to the country-tinged, compulsive chime of forthcoming single I Wanna Know: a world of sound in a formidable one-woman operation.

The latest in our series of writers recommending hidden films available to stream is a invite to travel back to 1932 for a brutal thriller

Some film tropes get wheeled out so often they create their own furrow. Perhaps that’s why the timeworn premise of “man hunting man” has evolved into its own disreputable but seemingly indestructible mini-genre. This year has already seen the deferred release of scattershot satire The Hunt, a button-pushing thriller from the Blumhouse production line in which snooty US liberals kidnap and stalk blue-collar “deplorables” in a customised paddock sited far from flyover country.

A 16-year-old Aboriginal boy was forced to remove his shorts and squat during a search, but disciplinary action has not been recommended

A New South Wales police watchdog investigation into seven strip searches including one in which a 16-year-old Aboriginal boy was physically forced to remove his shorts and squat has found that all of them were unlawful.

But the watchdog has been criticised for “not going far enough” in its findings, with Sarah Crellin, a principal solicitor at the Aboriginal Legal Service, saying she was “deeply disappointed that there have been no recommendations for disciplinary action” against individual officers.
