Ring me for the song title
The quantity of digitally recorded music is exploding. The AudioID automatic recognition system not only keeps your play list under control. It sorts the collection on your hard disk, protects intellectual property rights, and recognizes song titles on the basis of a short extract. view more (2004-11-09)
Infrared Halo Frames a Newborn Star
Observations with the VLT of a star-forming cloud have revealed, for the first time, a ring of infrared light around a nascent star. The images also show the presence of jets that emanate from the young object and collide with the surrounding cloud. The full text of this Press Release, with the photo (ESO PR Photo 26a/03) and all related links, is... view more... (2003-08-28)
Light guides flight of migratory birds
Songbirds use multiple sources of directional cues to guide their seasonal migrations, including the Sun, star patterns, the earth's magnetic field, and sky polarized light patterns. view more (2006-08-11)
NRL scientists demonstrate efficient electrical spin injection into silicon
Scientists at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) have efficiently injected a current of spin-polarized electrons from a ferromagnetic metal contact into silicon, producing a large electron spin polarization in the silicon. view more (2007-07-17)
Splitting Of White Light
Moscow scientists have managed to do simply and inexpensively something which normally proves complicated and expensive. The concept thought out and then implemented is a device which allows you to check the quality of ground and polished surfaces with unprecedented precision and rapidity and to detect every single defect of such surfaces. The... view more... (2004-04-23)
Astronomers report unprecedented double helix nebula near center of the Milky Way
Astronomers report an unprecedented elongated double helix nebula near the center of our Milky Way galaxy, using observations from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope. view more (2006-03-16)
Roses In The Southern Sky
The Wide-Field-Imager at La Silla Unveils Intricate Structures Illuminated by Hot Stars The giant HII nebula N44 The two best known satellite galaxies of the Milky Way, the Magellanic Clouds, are located in the southern sky at a distance of about 170,000 light-years. They host many giant nebular complexes with very hot and luminous stars whose... view more... (2003-11-03)
Home screening kits for common sexually acquired infection
The arrival of home screening kits for one of the most common sexually acquired infections might not be that far off, suggests research in Sexually Transmitted Infections. The bacterium in question is Chlamydia, infection with which can lead to lifelong infertility, because it is often symptomless and may go undetected for many years. view more (2000-02-28)
Overweight children at increased risk of arm and leg injuries following motor vehicle crash
Children who are overweight or obese are over two and a half times more likely to suffer injuries to their upper and lower extremities following a motor vehicle crash compared with normal weight children, according to a new report from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health's Center for Injury Research and Policy. view more (2008-12-10)
Tiny 'MEMS' devices to filter, amplify electronic signals
Researchers are developing a new class of tiny mechanical devices containing vibrating, hair-thin structures that could be used to filter electronic signals in cell phones and for other more exotic applications. view more (2009-08-11)
Solar Power Aircraft Will Make Broadband Available To All
An international project is developing new technology that can be installed into high altitude platforms - such as solar powered aircraft or airships - to make Broadband Internet access available to remote areas and moving trains. view more (2004-12-23)
New molecular force probe stretches molecules, atom by atom
Chemists at the University of Illinois have created a simple and inexpensive molecular technique that replaces an expensive atomic force microscope for studying what happens to small molecules when they are stretched or compressed. view more (2009-03-30)
Burning oil cloud above northern Iraq
A burning oil pipeline in northern Iraq produced an immense cloud of black smoke that stretched across thousands of square kilometres, in this image acquired by Envisat's Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer. The smoke cloud is visible in the centre of this image of the alluvial plain occupied by the valley of the river Tigris (flowing from... view more... (2003-09-12)
A 'grape' future for Alzheimer's disease research
With National Alzheimer's Awareness Month upon us, attention continues to focus on new approaches to cognitive health in an aging population. view more (2007-11-07)
No honeymoon replays: People don't want to taint special memories
That unforgettable honeymoon has a special place in your memory-so special that you might be reluctant to try to repeat it. A new study in the Journal of Consumer Research says people tend to treat their memories of previous special experiences as assets to be protected. view more (2008-11-18)
Biomarker of breathing control abnormality associated with hypertension and stroke
A study in the July 1 issue of the journal SLEEP identified a distinct ECG-derived spectrographic phenotype, designated as narrow-band elevated low frequency coupling (e-LFCNB), that is associated with prevalent hypertension, stroke, greater severity of sleep disordered breathing and sleep fragmentation in patients suffering from obstructive sleep... view more...

Faster atmospheric warming in subtropics pushes jet streams toward poles
The atmosphere is warming faster in subtropical areas, around 30 degrees north and south latitude, than it is elsewhere, University of Washington-led research shows. view more (2006-05-26)
Polarstern's biggest fish catch in 24 years of research in Antarctic waters
Five tons of marbled Antarctic cod (Notothenia rossii), now that was surely a big surprise to scientists and crew on board of Polarstern, alike considering that previous and subsequent hauls barely ever reaped such plentiful harvests. view more (2006-12-27)
What is time?
The concept of time is self-evident. An hour consists of a certain number of minutes, a day of hours and a year of days. But we rarely think about the fundamental nature of time. view more (2005-04-13)
Finely tuned WspRs help bacteria beat body by building biofilm
Bacteria are particularly harmful to human health when they band together to form a biofilm-a sheet composed of many individual bacteria glued together-because this can allow them to escape from both antibiotics and the immune system of their host. view more (2008-03-25)
