Improved ion mobility is key to new hydrogen storage compound
A materials scientist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has deciphered the structure of a new class of materials that can store relatively large quantities of hydrogen within its crystal structure for later release. view more (2008-05-19)
Novel experiments on cement yield concrete results
Using a brace of the most modern tools of materials research, a team from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and Northwestern University has shed new light on one of mankind's older construction materials—cement. view more (2007-04-02)
Gamma-ray photon race ends in dead heat; Einstein wins this round
Racing across the universe for the last 7.3 billion years, two gamma-ray photons arrived at NASA's orbiting Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope within nine-tenths of a second of one another. view more (2009-10-29)
Probing a rare material spin state at NIST
A team of international physicists that includes researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has found experimental evidence of a highly sought-after type of arrangement of atomic magnetic moments, or spins, in a series of materials. view more (2007-09-17)
Physicists: After 30 years of study, rare particle confirms prediction
High-energy physicists devoted to recreating the conditions at the beginning of the universe have for the first time observed a new way to produce those basic particles of atoms, protons and neutrons. view more (2008-03-11)
Oxygen ions for fuel cells get loose at low(er) temperatures
Seeking to understand a new fuel cell material, a research team working at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in collaboration with the University of Liverpool, has uncovered a novel structure that moves oxygen ions through the cell at substantially lower temperatures than previously thought possible. view more (2008-06-30)
Lisa And The Search For Elusive Gravity Waves
For almost 100 years, scientists have been searching for direct evidence of the existence of gravity waves - faint ripples in the fabric of spacetime predicted in Albert Einstein's theory of General Relativity. view more (2005-03-31)
Underpinning the technological revolution - ISIS marks 20 years of science research
Today (Thursday 16 December 2004) ISIS, the world-leading science facility at the CCLRC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire, is celebrating 20 years of scientific research since the first neutrons were produced on 16 December 1984. Neutrons are an extremely versatile probe used by researchers across all the scientific disciplines to... view more... (2004-12-16)

The first results of Finuda will be announced on January 30th: a new window for the study of exotic atomic nuclei.
On Friday the 30th, during the XLII international winter meeting on nuclear physics at Bormio, the first results will be announced of Finuda experiment (Nuclear Physics at Daphne), settled in Frascati at Infn National Laboratories. Planned and made operating by a group of about forty physicists from Universities and Infn Sites of Bari, Brescia,... view more... (2004-01-29)
Disorder enables extreme sensitivity in piezoelectric materials
A research team working at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has found an explanation for the extreme sensitivity to mechanical pressure or voltage of a special class of solid materials called relaxors. view more (2008-05-19)
European Satellites Probe a New Magnetar
On Aug. 22, 2008, NASA's Swift satellite reported multiple blasts of radiation from a rare object known as a soft gamma repeater, or SGR. view more (2009-06-17)
Therapeutic nanoparticles give new meaning to sugar-coating medicine
A research team at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) studying sugar-coated nanoparticles for use as a possible cancer therapy has uncovered a delicate balancing act that makes the particles more effective than conventional thinking says they should be. view more (2009-09-23)
Listening to dark matter
A team of researchers in Canada have made a bold stride in the struggle to detect dark matter. The PICASSO collaboration has documented the discovery of a significant difference between the acoustic signals induced by neutrons and alpha particles in a detector based on superheated liquids. view more (2008-10-16)
