Hunting the Southern Skies with SIMBA
First Images from the New "Millimetre Camera" on SEST at La Silla A new instrument, SIMBA ("SEST IMaging Bolometer Array"), has been installed at the Swedish-ESO Submillimetre Telescope (SEST) at the ESO La Silla Observatory in July 2001. It records astronomical images at a wavelength of 1.2 mm and is able to quickly map large sky areas. In order... view more... (2001-08-30)
Caltech scientists develop DNA origami nanoscale breadboards for carbon nanotube circuits
In work that someday may lead to the development of novel types of nanoscale electronic devices, an interdisciplinary team of researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) has combined DNA's talent for self-assembly with the remarkable electronic properties of carbon nanotubes, thereby suggesting a solution to the long-standing... view more...

NJIT researchers develop inexpensive, easy process to produce solar panels
Researchers at New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) have developed an inexpensive solar cell that can be painted or printed on flexible plastic sheets. view more (2007-07-19)
High Value Semiconducting Carbon Nanotubes
Moore's Law states that the number of transistors on a chip doubles every eighteen months. However current silicon technologies are approaching the limits imposed by quantum mechanics, which will stop Moore's Law in its tracks within 20 years. New materials and techniques must be found to complement and increase the capabilities of the current... view more... (2004-07-09)
A quicker, cheaper SARS virus detector -- one easily customizable for other targets
Members of a USC-led research team say they've made a big improvement in a new breed of electronic detectors for viruses and other biological materials - one that may be a valuable addition to the battle against epidemics. view more (2009-05-29)
Blue laser - the alpha and the omega
The future of DVD is blue. New, low-cost optical laser technology generates short-wavelength beams. At the other end of the beam are detector heads that will soon contain arrays of up to 25 sensors. Two Fraunhofer Institutes are taking the lead at both ends of the spectrum. Man's appetite seems to be insatiable. In the dark ages, packing away... view more... (2004-05-14)
New Instruments To Picture The Early Universe
The latest instrument of the UK's Tenerife Cosmic Microwave Background Experiment, has been officially inaugurated at the mountain top Teide Observatory of the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias, IAC, on Tenerife. The ceremony coincided with the announcement by the PPARC of major support for a new telescope of unmatched sensitivity.... view more... (1996-07-03)
Rare radio supernova in nearby galaxy is nearest supernova in five years
The chance discovery last month of a rare radio supernova - an exploding star seen only at radio wavelengths and undetected by optical or X-ray telescopes - underscores the promise of new, more sensitive radio surveys to find supernovas hidden by gas and dust. view more (2009-05-28)
UI researchers discover star orbiting a 'medium-sized' black hole
University of Iowa researchers have found a star orbiting a "medium-sized" black hole - about 1,000 times more massive than the sun - in the nearby starburst galaxy M82, a development that may help explain how medium-sized black holes form and evolve. view more (2006-01-06)
From molecules to the Milky Way: dealing with the data deluge
Most people have a few gigabytes of files on their PC. In the next decade, astronomers expect to be processing 10 million gigabytes of data every hour from the Square Kilometre Array telescope. view more (2007-11-08)
Jodrell Bank`s telescopes look to brighter future
After nearly 9 months of unseen activity, the University of Manchester`s giant Lovell radio telescope at Jodrell Bank is now scanning the heavens again, but anyone looking across the Cheshire plain may notice that it now looks rather odd! The well known landmark is now well on the way to the completion of a £2.4 M upgrade that will greatly... view more... (2002-01-18)
Advance in 'nano-agriculture': Tiny stuff has huge effect on plant growth
With potential adverse health and environmental effects often in the news about nanotechnology, scientists in Arkansas are reporting that carbon nanotubes (CNTs) could have beneficial effects in agriculture. view more (2009-10-22)
Black Holes Lead Galaxy Growth, New Research Shows
Astronomers may have solved a cosmic chicken-and-egg problem -- the question of which formed first in the early Universe -- galaxies or the supermassive black holes seen at their cores. view more (2009-01-07)
Prototype for long wavelength array sees first light
Astronomers at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) have produced the first images of the sky from a prototype of the Long Wavelength Array (LWA), a revolutionary new radio telescope to be constructed in southwestern New Mexico. view more (2007-03-30)
Adenine 'tails' make tailored anchors for DNA
Researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) and the University of Maryland (UMD) have demonstrated a deceptively simple technique for chemically bonding single strands of DNA to gold. view more (2006-12-27)
NRL partners with industry to develop compact biosensor for wide-ranging applications
Scientists at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) are partnering with industry to develop a sensor system for biomolecules that could make a significant contribution to a variety of fields such as healthcare, veterinary diagnostics, food safety, environmental testing, and national security. view more (2009-02-04)
Argonne researchers create new diamond-nanotube composite material
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory have combined the world's hardest known material - diamond - with the world's strongest structural form - carbon nanotubes. view more (2005-08-31)
'Nanonet' circuits closer to making flexible electronics reality
Researchers have overcome a major obstacle in producing transistors from networks of carbon nanotubes, a technology that could make it possible to print circuits on plastic sheets for applications including flexible displays and an electronic skin to cover an entire aircraft to monitor crack formation. view more (2008-07-24)
University of Alberta space research to solve aurora mystery
On February 15, NASA will launch the largest number of scientific satellites ever sent into orbit aboard a single rocket. A handful of Alberta scientists will be at Kennedy Space Center watching and waiting. For Dr. Ian Mann and Dr. John Samson, researchers in the Department of Physics at the University of Alberta, the real fun will begin when the... view more... (2007-01-11)
'Library on a Slide': whole genome microarrays for comparative genomics
A novel application of microarray technology, where up to 30,000 whole genomes are printed on a single slide, is described in the journal BMC Microbiology this week. The 'Library on a Slide' will help researchers compare the genetic make up of large numbers of bacterial strains to discover which genes are responsible for causing disease. Even... view more...
