Blacksmith’s secret revealed
In an international study into the fine structure of steel, Technology Foundation STW researchers have revealed how strong steel is formed. By analysing red-hot steel with an x-ray microscope, the researchers discovered how at a temperature of 900 oC, numerous microscopic crystals suddenly developed in the steel. The findings were published in the... view more... (2002-11-15)
U.Va. Engineers Aim to Solve 'Burning' Computer Problem
f you've balanced a laptop computer on your lap lately, you probably noticed a burning sensation. That's because ever-increasing processing speeds are creating more and more heat, which has to go somewhere -- in this case, into your lap. view more (2008-09-30)
X-Rays Examine Colliding Galaxies
Galaxies were once thought of as `island universes` evolving slowly in complete isolation. This is now known not to be the case. By using the world`s most powerful X-ray observatories, UK astronomers are discovering that most of these gigantic star systems interact with each other in a wide variety of ways. During the UK National Astronomy Meeting... view more... (2002-04-07)
Innovative Research Technique Reveals Another Natural Wonder in Yellowstone Park: A Unique, Photosynthesizing Life-Form
In the hot springs of Yellowstone National Park, a team of researchers partially funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) discovered a new bacterium that transforms light into chemical energy. view more (2007-07-27)
Robotic telescope unravels mystery of cosmic blasts
Scientists have used the world's largest robotic telescope to make the earliest-ever measurement of the optical polarisation* of a Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) just 203 seconds after the start of the cosmic explosion. This finding, which provides new insight into GRB physics, is published in Science today (15th March 2007). view more (2007-03-19)
Letrozole following tamoxifen may benefit women with breast cancer
Switching to the drug letrozole following 5 years of treatment with tamoxifen reduces the risk of hormone-dependent breast cancer recurrence, but not overall survival, among postmenopausal women. view more (2005-09-07)
NASA's Chandra finds black holes are 'green'

Solar loops spring into view
Huge loops of very hot gas rising above the Sun`s surface vibrate with enormous energy at times of solar storms. This is the latest surprise from ESA`s flotilla of spacecraft - SOHO, Ulysses and the four Cluster satellites - with which scientists are trying to make sense of how disturbances on the Sun affect the Earth. As reported today at a... view more... (2002-06-13)
Estrogen study provides new impetus for development of colon cancer drugs

Geographic isolation drives the evolution of a hot springs microbe
Sulfolobus islandicus, a microbe that can live in boiling acid, is offering up its secrets to researchers hardy enough to capture it from the volcanic hot springs where it thrives. view more (2009-05-28)
Premature babies have altered sensory responses in later life
Premature infants who need intensive care or surgery are less sensitive to thermal (hot and cold) sensations later in life, according to research conducted at UCL (University College London). view more (2008-12-23)
Infrared Echoes Give NASA's Spitzer a Supernova Flashback
