New observations show dynamic particle clumps in Saturn's A ring
New observations from the Cassini spacecraft now at Saturn indicate the particles comprising one of its most prominent rings are trapped in ever-changing clusters of debris that are regularly torn apart and reassembled by gravitational forces from the planet. view more (2005-09-06)
JHU-led team discovers exotic relatives of protons and neutrons
A team of scientists, including four at The Johns Hopkins University, has discovered two new subatomic particles, rare but important relatives of the familiar, commonplace proton and neutron. view more (2006-11-17)
Grid Computing Steps up a Gear
UK plans for Grid computing changed gear this week. The pioneering European DataGrid (EDG) project came to a successful conclusion at the end of March, and on 1 April a new project, known as Enabling Grids for E-Science in Europe (EGEE), begins. The UK is a major player in both projects, providing key staff and developing crucial areas of the... view more... (2004-04-01)
INL-led team achieves nuclear fuel performance milestone
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Idaho National Laboratory, in partnership with three other science and engineering powerhouses, reached a major domestic milestone relating to nuclear fuel performance on March 8. view more (2008-03-11)
DZero finds evidence of rare single top quark; Observation marks a step closer to finding Higgs boson
Scientists of the DZero collaboration at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory announced in a seminar at Fermilab on December 8, 2006 the first evidence of single top quarks produced in a rare subatomic process involving the weak nuclear force. view more (2006-12-18)
NYU researchers create method to precisely glue particles together on the micro- and nano-scale
Researchers at New York University have created a method to precisely bind nano- and micrometer-sized particles together into larger-scale structures with useful materials properties. view more (2009-06-15)
On chip separation: large molecules pass the speed camera first
What molecule or particle passes the finishline first? A good way to split a fluid sample into its separate parts is: organize a contest in a micro-channel. The largest parts will pass the optical detector first, the smaller ones follow at short distance. This principle of 'hydrodynamic chromatography' is now also possible on a chip. 'On-chip'... view more... (2002-12-10)
Simulations Illuminate Universe's First Twin Stars
The earliest stars in the universe formed not only as individuals, but sometimes also as twins, according to a paper published today in Science Express. view more (2009-07-10)
Nanospheres that block pain of sensitive teeth
Nanospheres could help dentists fill the tiny holes in our teeth that make them incredibly sensitive, and that cause severe pain for millions of adults and children worldwide. view more (2005-09-02)
Tiny crystals promise big benefits for solar technologies
Los Alamos National Laboratory scientists have discovered that a phenomenon called carrier multiplication, in which semiconductor nanocrystals respond to photons by producing multiple electrons, is applicable to a broader array of materials that previously thought. view more (2006-01-05)
NIAID scientists characterize the most infectious prion protein particles
A new study of prions-apparently malformed proteins that initiate deadly brain diseases such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans-has yielded surprising information about how the size of prions relates to their infectivity. view more (2005-09-08)
MSU scientists help lead teams in detection of fundamental component of matter
Michigan State University scientists and colleagues around the world took a step closer to understanding the universe with the discovery of a fundamental building block of nature. view more (2009-03-20)
NYU physicists make room for oddballs
Here's a question. How many gumballs of different sizes can fit in one of those containers at the mall so as to reward a well-spent quarter? It's hard to believe that most people never consider it even when guessing the number of candies in a bowl at Halloween. view more (2009-08-04)
Iowa State physicist leads team designing detector for international particle collider
John Hauptman stood before an international gathering of particle physicists and announced he had another idea. One that was different. One that was simpler. And best of all, one that he was sure would work. view more (2007-04-16)
Mobile laboratory "sniffs" traffic pollutants
A new mobile laboratory makes it possible to study traffic pollutants in actual traffic conditions. The mobile laboratory, which can be used to measure exhaust gases both on roads and in tunnels as well as in underground sites, can shed new light on the amount and size distribution of exhaust gases. Fine particles in exhaust gasses are being... view more... (2003-06-02)
Nontoxic nanoparticle can deliver and track drugs
A nontoxic nanoparticle developed by Penn State researchers is proving to be an all-around effective delivery system for both therapeutic drugs and the fluorescent dyes that can track their delivery. view more (2008-11-19)
Surprises from the Sun's South Pole
Although very close to the minimum of its 11-year sunspot cycle, the Sun showed that it is still capable of producing a series of remarkably energetic outbursts-ESA-NASA Ulysses mission revealed. view more (2007-02-20)
At the limits of the photoelectric effect
By way of the classical photoeffect, Einstein proved in 1905 that light also has particle character. However, with extremely high light intensities, remarkable things happen in the process. view more (2009-04-24)
NIST trumps the clumps: Making biologic drugs safer
Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have developed a technique to measure the formation of clumps of proteins in protein-based pharmaceuticals. view more (2008-07-24)
On October 10th at the Canaries the Magic telescope will be inaugurated: the biggest in the world for the study of gamma radiation
On October 10th the Magic Telescope (Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov telescope) will be inaugurated. The telescope is located La Palma island, 2200 meters above the sea level at the Observatory Roque de los Muchachos, of the Itituto Astrofisico de Canarias. With his 17-meter-diameter-mirror and 240 square meters surface, it's the largest... view more... (2003-10-06)
