Into the abyss: Deep-sixing carbon
Imagine a gigantic, inflatable, sausage-like bag capable of storing 160 million tonnes of CO2 - the equivalent of 2.2 days of current global emissions. view more (2008-02-19)
Pimp my meatballs — Collagen injections safeguard nutrients
Injecting meatballs with collagen can help the meat to retain the important nutrients iodine and thiamine, a new study by researchers from the Agricultural University of Poznan in Poland shows. view more (2007-04-17)
New fabrication technique yields nanoscale UV LEDs
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in collaboration with scientists from the University of Maryland and Howard University, have developed a technique to create tiny, highly efficient light-emitting diodes (LEDs) from nanowires. view more (2007-05-29)
New nano-method may help compress computer memory
A team of chemists at Brown University have devised a simple way to synthesize iron-platinum nanorods and nanowires while controlling both size and composition. Nanorods with uniform shape and magnetic alignment are one key to the next generation of high-density information storage, but have been difficult to make in bulk. view more (2007-06-25)
Safer, denser acetylene storage in an organic framework
The century-old challenge of transporting acetylene may have been solved in principle by a team of scientists working at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). view more (2009-08-27)
In search of the perfect oyster
What is actually a "good" oyster? How can we evaluate and grade "quality"? And how can we produce the quality we wish? view more (2004-10-07)
Scarring key to link between obesity and diabetes
The team, in collaboration with University Hospital Aintree, the University of Warwick and researchers in Sweden, found that people classified as obese and those with pre-diabetes have raised levels of a protein called SPARC, that can cause tissue scarring. view more (2009-08-14)
Notre Dame study describes evidence of world's oldest known granaries
A new study coauthored by Ian Kuijt, associate professor of anthropology at the University of Notre Dame, describes recent excavations in Jordan that reveal evidence of the world's oldest know granaries. view more (2009-06-24)
A new genetic model for obesity?
A gene involved in fat (lipid) metabolism, and consequently relevant for studies in obesity and diabetes, has been described in Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly) by a team of researchers in the September issue of Mechanisms of Development. Luis Teixeira and Nathalie F. Vanzo from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory in Heidelberg, Germany,... view more... (2003-09-25)
Magnetic 'handedness' could lead to better magnetic storage devices
Better magnetic storage devices for computers and other electronics could result from new work by researchers in the United States and Germany. view more (2007-05-30)
Heat forms potentially harmful substance in high-fructose corn syrup
Researchers have established the conditions that foster formation of potentially dangerous levels of a toxic substance in the high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) often fed to honey bees. view more (2009-10-15)
Delaware State U. scientists refine hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle power plants
Hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles (FCVs) can be an important part of the solution to America's energy crisis, says Dr. Andrew Goudy of Delaware State University. He is leading a research team striving to solve a key technical FCV puzzle. view more (2009-07-27)
Novel sugar-to-hydrogen technology promises transportation fuel independence
The hydrogen economy is not a futuristic concept. The U.S. Department of Energy's 2006 Advance Energy Initiative calls for competitive ethanol from plant sources by 2012 and a good selection of hydrogen-powered fuel cell vehicles by 2020. view more (2007-05-23)
Professor Dr. Rolf-Dieter Heuer Appointed as New Research Director
On its meeting on October 1, 2004, the Administrative Council of the Helmholtz center DESY appointed Professor Dr Rolf-Dieter Heuer as the new research director for high-energy physics. He takes over from Professor Dr Robert Klanner, who decided after his five-year term of office to dedicate himself to teaching and research again. view more (2004-10-04)
Machine preservation may promote more organ sharing
Preserving the kidneys of deceased older donors on a pump - as opposed to the conventional method of storing and transporting organs in a cooler - may lower hospital costs, improve initial organ function, and promote greater use and more sharing of organs, according to new research by Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. view more (2007-05-03)
Memory in artificial atoms
Three of our nano-physicists have made a discovery that can change the way we store data on our computers. This means that in the future we can store data much faster, and more accurate. Their discovery has been published in the scientific journal Nature Physics. view more (2008-04-08)
When will Mount St Helens erupt?
Research reported in Science today (14 October 2004) shows that rocks erupted from the Mount St Helens volcano in 1980 preserve a remarkable record of the goings-on beneath the volcano in the period prior to its eruption. view more (2004-10-12)
Nanotechnology for Space Applications
Ever more fastidious missions for the scientific investigation of space as well as the increasing use of satellite-based services require the development of more efficient, more economical and more resistant space technologies and systems in the future. A study of the VDI Technology Center on behalf of the German Aerospace Center points out, that... view more... (2003-04-14)
RAND study: Alternative fossil fuels have economic potential
Alternative sources of fossil fuels such as oil sands and coal-to-liquids have significant economic promise, but the environmental consequences must also be considered, according to a RAND Corporation study issued today. view more (2008-10-08)
New Carbon Material Shows Promise of Storing Large Quantities of Renewable Electrical Energy
Engineers and scientists at The University of Texas at Austin have achieved a breakthrough in the use of a one-atom thick structure called "graphene" as a new carbon-based material for storing electrical charge in ultracapacitor devices, perhaps paving the way for the massive installation of renewable energies such as wind and solar... view more...
