Protect your vote -- avoid election machine errors
Of all the conceivable problems that could lead to a miscount Election Day, there's one possibility that voters can do something about - avoid making election machine-related errors, says a University of Maryland researcher who led a comprehensive study of voter problems using touch screen and... view more (2008-11-04)

UCR-led research team detects 'top quark,' a basic constituent of matter
A group of 50 international physicists, led by UC Riverside's Ann Heinson, has detected for the first time a subatomic particle, the top quark, produced without the simultaneous production of its antimatter partner - an extremely rare event.   view more (2006-12-14)

Scientists offer new model for forecasting the likelihood of an earthquake
In assessing the probability of an earthquake, scientists rely on two important pieces of data that are often inconsistent. The past geological record sometimes tells one story, while current measurements from the Global Positioning System (GPS) tell another. But a new forecasting model designed by... view more (2006-12-11)

Advancing How Computers and Electronics Work

NIST photon detectors have record efficiency
Sensors that detect and count single photons, the smallest quantities of light, with 88 percent efficiency have been demonstrated by physicists at the National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST).   view more (2005-06-02)

Displays for the pants pocket
Much to the disappointment of many users of computer and portable electronic information device, flexible screens still cannot be found in retail stores. The reasons are mainly of technical and chemical nature, as Dr. Armin Wedel from the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Polymer Research IAP... view more (2002-06-26)

A self-orienting colibri
A new optical 3D measuring system was named like the bird ”kolibri-mobil“. While self-calibrating, it does not require any orientation marks. Precise measurement data are taken from complex objects in a single test step and the computer visualizes them in three dimensions.... view more (2002-04-16)

3.2 Billion-Year-Old Surprise: Earth Had Strong Magnetic Field
Geophysicists at the University of Rochester announce in today's issue of Nature that the Earth's magnetic field was nearly as strong 3.2 billion years ago as it is today.   view more (2007-04-05)

New scoring system protects credit card transactions
As this year's holiday season approaches, your credit card transactions may be a little more secure thanks to standards adopted by the payment card industry.   view more (2007-11-09)

REVEALING RESEARCH UNMASKS OFFENDERS
Criminals captured on film could be put in the frame thanks to an expert in graphic and image manipulation from Staffordshire University's School of Computing.   view more (2000-03-16)

Longer-living products
Almost two million tons of electrical and electronic scrap are generated each year in Germany alone. But it is usually much too valuable or too hazardous in terms of toxic content to dispose of on a waste tip or by incineration. The objective of "sustainable resource management" is to recycle... view more (1999-07-01)

Telemonitoring of multiple vital parameters in chronic heart failure
Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a frequent syndrome with an increasing prevalence. It is a frequent cause of impeding symptoms, has a negative prognosis and absorbs about two percent of the budgets of health-care systems in the industrialized nations.   view more (2005-09-06)

Cut and run: MSU research predicts risk avoidance in the face of chronic economic loss
Individual investors are liquidating their holdings at record levels as financial markets sink, often absorbing losses to avoid possibly worse pain later. Contradicting the counsel of many financial advisers, it also flies in the face of widely accepted behavioral theory and reinforces recent... view more (2008-10-28)

When it comes to studying energy transfer in photosynthesis, it's good to think "outside the bun."   view more (2007-05-03)

Frozen lightning: NIST's new nanoelectronic switch
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have demonstrated a prototype nanoscale electronic switch that works like lightning—except for the speed.   view more (2007-03-05)

Transistor laser functions as non-linear electronic switch, processor
The transistor laser invented by scientists at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has now been found to possess fundamental non-linear characteristics that are new to a transistor and permit its use as a dual-input, dual-output, high-frequency signal processor.   view more (2006-02-07)

Tiny self-assembling cubes could carry medicine, cell therapy
Johns Hopkins researchers have devised a self-assembling cube-shaped perforated container, no larger than a dust speck, that could serve as a delivery system for medications and cell therapy.   view more (2005-12-13)

New research shows why metal alloys degrade
Metal alloys can fail unexpectedly in a wide range of applications---from jet engines to satellites to cell phones---and new research from the University of Michigan helps to explain why.   view more (2008-09-25)

Nanopore Method Could Revolutionize Genome Sequencing
A team led by physicists at the University of California, San Diego has shown the feasibility of a fast, inexpensive technique to sequence DNA as it passes through tiny pores. The advance brings personalized, genome-based medicine closer to reality.   view more (2006-04-07)

Loughborough University and NI team up to prepare engineers for the future
National Instruments and Loughborough University today announced a joint initiative to deliver comprehensive training and education on computer-based instrumentation to both NI customers and engineering students. The initiative extends NI support of the Loughborough University undergraduate... view more (2002-11-05)

Alcohol increases sleep intensity in young women
While numerous studies have linked alcohol abuse to sleep disruption, especially in males, there has been little research on alcohol and its effects on sleep in females. Now, a new study shows that a moderate amount of alcohol, taken before bed, can impact the quality of sleep for young women.   view more (2006-08-22)

Former vicar, aged 93, breaks world record for PhD
A former vicar in London's East End has passed his PhD, at the age of 93 - breaking the world record for the oldest person to gain a doctorate.
