Hubble sees dark matter ring in a galaxy cluster
A team of astronomers used the Hubble Space Telescope to find the best evidence yet for the existence of dark matter, present in the form of a ghostly ring in a galaxy cluster.   view more (2007-05-17)

Gas bubbles are taken under control
The system developed by the Moscow scientists with the financial assistance of the Russian Foundation for Basic Research and the Foundation for Assistance to Small Innovative Enterprises will instantly allow to detect and measure gas micro-bubbles being formed in blood inside the pump oxygenator. A... view more (2003-11-14)

Warp drive a no go
Sci-fi experts know that many seemingly impossible technologies materialise years later, but unfortunately this may not to be the case for warp-drive - travelling through space faster than the speed of light. The favourite science fiction theory of space contracting in front of spacecraft, and... view more (2002-03-05)

UK researchers announce continuous Terahertz emission innovation
Researchers at the University of Leeds' Institute of Microwaves and Photonics have developed a novel way of generating continuous tunable Terahertz (THz) radiation.   view more (2002-11-14)

Brain measurements could lead to better devices to move injured or artificial limbs
Neuroscientists at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have developed a novel approach for measuring and deciphering brain activity that holds out promise of providing improved movements of natural or artificial limbs by those who have been injured or paralyzed.   view more (2007-10-19)

New Evidence on How our Eyes use Light to Manage our Body Clock - University of Surrey Groundbreaking Study Results
A new study published this week shows for the first time that the human eye is sensitive to short wave length visible light and transmits information to the body clock in a way that may make it possible to manipulate waking and sleeping rhythms. This new data, gained from a study carried out at the... view more (2001-08-20)

Tunes and Talk: Researchers Find Music and Language are Processed by the Same Brain Systems
Researchers have long debated whether or not language and music depend on common processes in the mind. Now, researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center have found evidence that the processing of music and language do indeed depend on some of the same brain systems.    view more (2007-09-28)

Patent application for first ever coloured-light laser
Physicists at the University of Bonn have applied to patent a laser capable of producing almost every colour, from infrared through the entire visible spectrum to the UV range - and this is done not with high-cost optical crystals, but with the aid of a simple glass fibre. The new laser could bring... view more (2003-08-21)

CSI: Milky Way team works scene of dead star
Like a team of forensic detectives in a television show that could be called "CSI: Milky Way," a University of Chicago astrophysicist and his associates are piecing together how a mysterious infrared ring got left around a dead star that displays a magnetic field trillions of times more... view more (2008-05-29)

Biggest 'small' black hole discovered
Discovery of the largest example of a "small" black hole - one formed from the collapse of a single massive star at the end of its lifetime - has led scientists to revaluate of how black holes come into being, according to a report in Nature.   view more (2007-10-22)

FLYING THROUGH TIME
UK scientists demonstrate Einstein's theories of relativity and 'travel' through time   view more (1999-12-22)

Earthquakes Happen at Full Moon
Russian physicists have found that flashes of neutron radiation from the Earth surface are bound to increasing in seismic activity. They believe that this phenomenon can be used as a novel kind of earthquake foreboding. The researchers of the Department of Cosmic Radiation of the Research... view more (2001-02-02)

Penn researchers study the use of ultrasound for treatment of cancer
For the first time, ultrasound is being used in animal models - to treat cancer by disrupting tumor blood vessels.   view more (2005-11-07)

New study reveals twice as many asteroids as previously believed
Asteroids in our Solar System may be more numerous than previously thought, according to the first systematic search for these objects performed in the infrared, with ESA`s Infrared Space Observatory, ISO. The ISO Deep Asteroid Search indicates that there are between 1.1 million and 1.9 million... view more (2002-04-05)

Youngest solar systems detected by U-M astronomers
Astronomers at the University of Michigan have found what are believed to be some of the youngest solar systems yet detected.   view more (2007-11-30)

Magellanic gemstones in the southern sky
Hubble has captured the most detailed images to date of the open star clusters NGC 265 and NGC 290 in the Small Magellanic Cloud-two sparkling sets of gemstones in the southern sky.   view more (2006-04-18)

Wind power explored off California's coast
In many ways, wind energy seems an ideal energy source. Fields of mighty turbines spinning in rhythm could harness carbonless power and shuttle it off to homes and industries.   view more (2007-12-13)

3-D computer models aid research of Earth's core
The work of a University of Alaska Fairbanks post-doctoral fellow will be included in an article appearing in the upcoming issue of the journal, Science.   view more (2006-11-29)

Getting creative in business
The use of art and creativity in the business world is being explored by Northumbria University lecturer Ed Moreton. Organisations across the globe are constantly looking for new ways of tackling issues and businesses and organisations are turning more and more to the creative world of the arts for... view more (2002-05-03)

Graz team sheds new light on dark states - another Austrian breakthrough in quantum physics
Vienna, 16 June 2003 Light shines through opaque materials if certain conditions are met. By establishing the existence of another such condition, scientists at the Graz University of Technology have created additional possibilities for using light to control revolutionary new optical components.... view more (2003-06-16)

Motion that powers sperm provides key to unravelling rare genetic disorder
Malfunction of the motor that powers sperm plays havoc with more than fertility: it may also be the root cause of the rare genetic disease Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS). Reporting in the journal Cell tomorrow, researchers from the UK, US and Canada reveal they have discovered a novel gene for BBS... view more (2004-05-12)

Treating obstructive sleep apnea, preventing heart attacks and strokes
Researchers in Brazil have found that treating patients who suffer from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) dramatically reduces early indications of atherosclerosis in just months, linking OSA directly to the hardening or narrowing of the arteries. Until... view more (2007-09-28)

Einstein's relativity theory proven with the 'lead' of a pencil
