Detecting the Traces of Mystery Matter
Using high-speed collisions between gold atoms, scientists think they have re-created one of the most mysterious forms of matter in the universe - quark-gluon plasma. view more (2005-08-01)
Athletes, spectators faced unprecedented air pollution at 2008 Olympic Games
Particulate air pollution during the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing constantly exceeded levels considered excessive by the World Health Organization, was far worse than other recent Olympic Games, and was about 30 percent higher than has been reported by Chinese environmental experts - even though some favorable weather conditions helped reduce the... view more...

'Fetal' neurons play role in adult brain
Subplate neurons - once thought to die after directing the wiring of the cerebral cortex or gray matter- remain in the white matter of the adult brain in small numbers and maintain activity, communicating with other neurons in the brain said researchers from Baylor College of Medicine and the University of Alabama at Birmingham in a report that... view more...

Laser-trapping of rare element gets unexpected assist
Argonne researchers have successfully laser-cooled and trapped atoms of radium - the first time this rare element has been captured in a magneto-optical trap - with an assist from an unexpected source. view more (2007-05-02)
MRI study opens door to assessing, preventing dangerous brain iron levels
A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) study at UCLA opens new doors to assessing and potentially preventing brain iron accumulation associated with risk of developing degenerative brain diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Dementia With Lewy Bodies. view more (2006-03-27)
Seabed Research Will Have Global Significance
Sediments in the Arabian Sea will be examined by an international scientific expedition led by a researcher from the University of Edinburgh to increase understanding of the natural processes of the ocean floor and establish its significance for global cycles and climate change. Robotic research platforms will be deployed on the sea floor to study... view more... (2002-09-05)
Commission satellite project detects urban air pollution from space
Fine particulate matter is now one of the biggest threats to human health from air pollution. A new technique to monitor the concentration of particulate matter in urban air, using satellite-borne sensors, offers a much more cost-effective approach than traditional land-based monitoring. The first trials of this system, developed by 11 partners... view more... (2002-10-04)
Molecular trains scheduled at new biotechnology institute
As governments worldwide pour billions into programmes to exploit the potential of nanotechnology, Leeds aims to make its mark with its newly-established Interdisciplinary Institute in Bionanosciences. Molecular-scale trains and submarines that will carry loads such tiny doses of drugs and virtual reality software to enable operators to control... view more... (2004-02-23)
Crash Test-Iconic Rings and Flares of Galaxies Created by Violent, Intergalactic Collisions, Research by Pitt and Partners Finds
The bright pinwheels and broad star sweeps iconic of disk galaxies such as the Milky Way might all be the shrapnel from massive, violent collisions with other galaxies and galaxy-size chunks of dark matter, according to a multi-institutional project involving the University of Pittsburgh. view more (2008-11-24)
DU professor advises families to refocus for holidays to ease financial tension
Martha Wadsworth, associate professor of psychology at the University of Denver (DU), says during the holidays families should focus on what has been proven to matter most in psychological research - quality family time. view more (2009-11-16)
Upside-down underwater telescope to study visitors from space
Scientists from the Universities of Sheffield and Leeds will soon be able to study some of the most elusive particles known to man, thanks to a giant telescope under the sea that looks down towards the centre of the Earth rather than up into the sky. Together with fellow scientists from across Europe they are building a telescope 2400m (one and a... view more... (2003-03-17)
Harvard Six Cities Study Follow Up: Reducing Soot Particles Is Associated with Longer Lives
An eight-year follow up to the landmark Harvard Six Cities Study has found an association between people living longer and cities reducing the amount of fine particulate matter, or soot, in their air. view more (2006-03-16)
Astronomers Pioneer New Method For Probing Exotic Matter
Using European and Japanese/NASA X-ray satellites, astronomers have seen Einstein's predicted distortion of space-time around three neutron stars, and in doing so they have pioneered a groundbreaking technique for determining the properties of these ultradense objects. view more (2007-08-28)
UQ researchers discover some of the oldest forms of life
University of Queensland researchers have identified microbial remains in some of the oldest preserved organic matter on Earth, confirmed to be 3.5 billion years-old. view more (2007-08-07)
Chemists look through glass to find secrets that are less clear
A new understanding of how glass is formed may assist with our understanding of everything from the design of golf club heads to the structure of the early universe. view more (2006-06-07)
University of Minnesota astronomers find gaping hole in the Universe
University of Minnesota astronomers have found an enormous hole in the Universe, nearly a billion light-years across, empty of both normal matter such as stars, galaxies and gas, as well as the mysterious, unseen "dark matter." While earlier studies have shown holes, or voids, in the large-scale structure of the Universe, this new... view more... (2007-08-24)
Study plunges standard theory of cosmology into crisis
As modern cosmologists rely more and more on the ominous "dark matter" to explain otherwise inexplicable observations, much effort has gone into the detection of this mysterious substance in the last two decades, yet no direct proof could be found that it actually exists. view more (2009-05-06)
NRL's Large Area Telescope explores high-energy particles
NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope is making some exciting discoveries about cosmic rays and the Large Area Telescope aboard Fermi is the tool in this investigation. view more (2009-07-29)
The Italian Institute for the Physics of Matter (INFM) opens an antenna in Grenoble
One of the main institutional functions of the Italian Institute for the Physics of Matter (INFM) is the promotion of the access and participation of scientists, young researchers and technicians in international projects and laboratories. view more (1999-12-01)
New Research Turns Sewage Farms into Power Plants
Researchers at the University of Warwick's Warwick Process Technology Group have devised a process that turns wet waste from sewage farms and paper mills into a source of power. University of Warwick researcher Dr Ashok Bhattacharya and his team are part of a Europe wide consortium that have cracked the problem of how to extract very pure levels... view more... (2002-04-29)
