Direct photon properties reveal secrets of extreme nuclear states
When atomic nuclei are smashed together at great speed, resulting temperatures exceed one trillion degrees, 200 million times hotter than the surface of the sun. view more (2006-04-26)
How fish species suffer as a result of warmer waters
Ongoing global climate change causes changes in the species composition of marine ecosystems, especially in shallow coastal oceans. view more (2007-01-05)
Death rates during hot weather start rising at relatively low temperatures
The impact of heat on death rates begins at relatively low temperatures during hot weather, finds research in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health. view more (2002-04-15)
Pitt professor designs less-risky reactor for clean, safe energy
Reactors that burn hydrogen or natural gas to generate energy can be dirty and dangerous. The mix of air with hydrogen or natural gas can explode easily if composition and temperature are not carefully controlled. And reactors often produce polluting byproducts. view more (2006-09-13)
A new discovery helps us to understand the complex nature of earthquakes
Álvaro Corral, a physicist at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, has discovered that the structure of the recurrence time of earthquakes, which is the time interval between successive earthquakes, is similar to the spatial structure of physics systems when they change phase in the "critical points". view more (2005-07-11)
Superconductors get a boost from pressure
Superconductors can convey more than 150 times more electricity than copper wires because they don't restrict electron movement, the essence of electricity. view more (2008-05-20)
UBC physicists develop 'impossible' technique to study and develop superconductors
A team of University of British Columbia researchers has developed a technique that controls the number of electrons on the surface of high-temperature superconductors, a procedure considered impossible for the past two decades. view more (2008-06-24)
Scientists discover way to regulate the body's energy expenditure
Scientists have discovered a protein that controls the amount of fat stored in the body, offering new clues for obesity treatments. The research, published in this week's Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, shows how the protein regulates the activity of a key gene responsible for maintaining the body's temperature, called uncoupling... view more...

2005 Was the Warmest Year in a Century
The year 2005 may have been the warmest year in a century, according to NASA scientists studying temperature data from around the world. view more (2006-01-25)
Europe's largest climate change experiment launched
Scientists at the University of Liverpool have launched a large scale experiment to monitor the impact of climate change on freshwater systems. view more (2006-01-18)
State of the steric sea level rise, 1955-2003
Based on a detailed analysis of ocean vertical temperature profiles for the 1955-2008 period, Sydney Levitus, lead author, talks about the change of global average sea level induced by the observed warming of the world ocean during the past 53 years. view more (2009-02-17)
Magnetism governs properties of iron-based superconductors
Though a year has passed since the discovery of a new family of high-temperature superconductors, a viable explanation for the iron-based materials' unusual properties remains elusive. But a team of scientists working at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) may be close to the answer. view more (2009-03-26)
'Sewer gas' induces suspended animation without decreasing blood pressure
Hydrogen sulfide gas can induce a state of suspended animation in mice while maintaining normal blood pressure, a finding that researchers hope will one day help treat critically-ill patients. view more (2006-10-09)
Brain injured athletes may benefit from hypothermia research
NFL players and other athletes who suffer serious or multiple concussions may benefit from ground-breaking research being conducted by scientists at Barrow Neurological Institute at St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center. The scientists are developing a surgical technique that involves hypothermia in specific regions of the brain. view more (2009-11-16)
New particle explains odd behavior in cuprate superconductors
New fundamental particles aren't found only at Fermilab and at other particle accelerators. They also can be found hiding in plain pieces of ceramic, scientists at the University of Illinois report. view more (2007-07-18)
Pre-baked aluminium soufflés
Foamed metals are an up-and-coming trend in lightweight construction. But "pastries" of this kind do not always turn out as well as they should. A new, two-stage technology using pre-foamed metal globules helps even inexperienced metal bakers to create better products. view more (2004-10-04)
U of C chemists discover recipe to design a better type of fuel cell
Fuel cells are often touted as one method to help decrease society's addiction to fossil fuels. But there is still a lot of work to be done before fuel cells will be ready for mass market to be used in transportation, home heating and portable power for emergencies. view more (2009-10-19)
Unexpected discovery about earth's core
The core of the earth doesn't look the way it was expected to. Scientists at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden , KTH, can now show that iron, under extremely high pressure, such as that found in the inner earth, takes on unexpected properties, and this can be of importance in understanding the movements of the earth, such as,... view more...

OHSU primate center research suggests multiple 'body clocks'
Research conducted at Oregon Health & Science University suggests that contrary to popular belief, the body has more than one "body clock." view more (2006-05-23)
Metal detectors pass safety test on pregnant women
Hand held metal detectors (HHMDs), such as those used for security checks in airports, do not cause harmful heating or nerve stimulation in pregnant women, according to research published today (22 July 2003) in the Institute of Physics journal Physics in Medicine and Biology. The role of the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH),... view more... (2003-07-21)
