Cassini's doubleheader flybys score home run
Cassini performed back-to-back flybys of Saturn moons Tethys and Hyperion last weekend, coming closer than ever before to each of them. view more (2005-10-03)
The light and dark of Venus
Venus Express has revealed a planet of extraordinarily changeable and extremely large-scale weather. Bright hazes appear in a matter of days, reaching from the south pole to the low southern latitudes and disappearing just as quickly. view more (2008-02-22)
Cornell ecologist's study finds that producing ethanol and biodiesel from corn and other crops is not worth the energy
Turning plants such as corn, soybeans and sunflowers into fuel uses much more energy than the resulting ethanol or biodiesel generates, according to a new Cornell University and University of California-Berkeley study. view more (2005-07-06)
Impact of renewable energy on our oceans must be investigated, say scientists
Scientists from the Universities of Exeter and Plymouth are today calling for urgent research to understand the impact of renewable energy developments on marine life. view more (2009-09-17)
Milky Way galaxy is warped and vibrating like a drum
The most prominent of the Milky Way's satellite galaxies-a pair of galaxies called the Magellanic Clouds-appears to be interacting with the Milky Way's ghostly dark matter to create a mysterious warp in the galactic disk that has puzzled astronomers for half a century. view more (2006-01-10)
Study: Long legs are more efficient
Scientists have known for years that the energy cost of walking and running is related primarily to the work done by muscles to lift and move the limbs. view more (2007-03-13)
Higher levels of common daily activity associated with lower risk of death
Older adults who expend more energy through any daily activity, including non-exercise activity, have a lower rate of death than adults who are less active. view more (2006-07-12)
Microorganisms one part of the solution to energy problem, says report
The answer to one of the world's largest problems - the need for clean, renewable sources of energy - might just come from some of the world's smallest inhabitants - bacteria - according to a new report, Microbial Energy Conversion, released by the American Academy of Microbiology. view more (2006-11-17)
Adding up renewable energy
Do the overall efficiencies of renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar, and geothermal add up in terms of their complete life cycle from materials sourcing, manufacture, running, and decommissioning" Researchers in Greece have carried out a life cycle assessment to find the answer. view more (2007-08-14)
Discovery Prospects at the Large Hadron Collider
Will scientists ever find the elusive Higgs particle, the last of the fundamental particles predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics and postulated to play a major role in how fundamental particles get their masses? view more (2006-04-25)
Preventing Soil Erosion in Continuous Corn
With recent increase in the cost of energy and subsequent explorations into alternative energy sources, the increased harvest of corn residue for cellulosic ethanol production is likely in the future. view more (2009-01-13)
'Smart' sunglasses and goggles let users adjust shade and color
Imagine a single pair of glasses with lenses that can be transparent or dark, and in shades of yellow, green or purple, all on command. A new lens with chameleon powers promises to dramatically improve sunglasses' function. view more (2007-03-28)
Compact galaxies in early Universe pack a big punch
Using the Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer onboard of the Hubble NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have made observations of young, surprisingly compact galaxies, each only 5,000 light-years across, but weighing 200 billion times the mass of the Sun. view more (2008-04-30)
Energy gap useful tool for successful weight loss maintenance strategy
Americans continue to get heavier. Most weight control methods short of bariatric surgery are generally considered ineffective in preventing obesity or reducing weight. view more (2009-11-05)
Lining up for a new atom smasher
The physicists are coming to Oxford for the ECFA/DESY Linear Collider Workshop, from 20-23 March. Here they will develop plans for two 10-km long particle accelerators which will be accurately aligned to fire beams of electrons and positrons (anti-electrons) at each other. When matter and antimatter collide, they disappear - annihilate - in a... view more... (1999-03-16)
Inderscience Publishers
A way to make wind power smoother and more efficient that exploits the inertia of a wind turbine rotor could help solve the problem of wind speed variation, according to research published in the International Journal of Power Electronics. view more (2009-01-08)
Scientists predict how to detect a fourth dimension of space
Scientists at Duke and Rutgers universities have developed a mathematical framework they say will enable astronomers to test a new five-dimensional theory of gravity that competes with Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. view more (2006-05-26)
Workshop Suggests Turning Problems into Biofuels
The twin problems of too much feedlot manure and too many mesquite trees could be solved by converting them into renewable bioenergy products, Texas A&M University System agricultural researchers, engineers and commercialization experts suggested Friday. view more (2006-09-05)
The future of solar-powered houses is clear
People could live in glass houses and look at the world through rose-tinted windows while reducing their carbon emissions by 50% thanks to QUT Institute of Sustainable Resources (ISR) research. view more (2008-04-10)
New technologies enhance quantum cryptography
A team of Los Alamos National Laboratory scientists, in collaboration with researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, Colo., and Albion College, in Albion, Mich., have achieved quantum key distribution (QKD) at telecommunications industry wavelengths in a 50-kilometer (31 mile) optical fiber. view more (2006-02-03)
