Research overturns accepted notion of neutron's electrical properties
For two generations of physicists, it has been a standard belief that the neutron, an electrically neutral elementary particle and a primary component of an atom, actually carries a positive charge at its center and an offsetting negative charge at its outer edge. view more (2007-09-18)
Separating uranium from plutonium
Moscow researchers have made the supercritical carbon dioxide work. Saturated with special reagents, carbon dioxide first extracts uranium from the spent nuclear fuel waste, then extracts plutonium and then flies away into the atmosphere. As a matter of fact, the spent nuclear fuel consists of multiple elements. First of all, this is uranium that... view more... (2003-08-08)
Media invitation - Shipshape - in war and peace
There can be few other signals of a nation's intent of action that match the dispatch of the Fleet. It is therefore vital that the Royal Navy is always ready to deploy and, if necessary, to defend Britain's interests, John Coles, Chief Executive of the Warship Support Agency will tell the Royal Academy of Engineering when he gives the Lloyds's... view more...

Brain Blood Flow Gives Clues to Treating Depression
The usefulness of established molecular imaging/nuclear medicine approaches in identifying the "hows" and "whys" of brain dysfunction and its potential in providing immediately useful information in treating depression are emphasized in a study in the August Journal of Nuclear Medicine. view more (2007-08-09)
Scientists find black hole's 'point of no return'
Scientists have found new evidence that black holes are performing the disappearing acts for which they are known. view more (2006-01-11)
Astronomers detect echoes from ancient supernovae
A team of astronomers has found faint visible "echoes" of three ancient supernovae by detecting centuries-old light reflected by interstellar gas clouds hundreds of light-years removed from the original explosions. view more (2005-12-22)
Brightest stellar explosion heralds new type of long-distance astronomy
A flash of light that blinded even small telescopes six months ago was the brightest astronomical explosion ever observed - visible to the naked eye despite originating halfway across the universe. view more (2008-09-11)
Scientists sequence DNA of woolly mammoth
Experts in ancient DNA from McMaster University (Canada) have teamed up with genome researchers from Penn State University (USA) for the investigation of permafrost bone samples from Siberia. view more (2005-12-20)
Regional nuclear war could devastate global climate
Even a small-scale, regional nuclear war could produce as many direct fatalities as all of World War II and disrupt the global climate for a decade or more, with environmental effects that could be devastating for everyone on Earth, university researchers have found. view more (2006-12-11)
Fathering cancer
EMBARGOED UNTIL WEDNESDAY 19 JUNE 2002 19:00 BST UK CONTACT - Claire Bowles, New Scientist Press Office, London: Tel: +44(0)20 7331 2751 or email claire.bowles@rbi.co.uk Is the next generation paying the price for Sellafield after all? WORKING at the Sellafield nuclear plant in Cumbria may have been harmful after all. Children of men who had... view more... (2002-06-19)
Single spinning nuclei in diamond offer a stable quantum computing building block
Surmounting several distinct hurdles to quantum computing, physicists at Harvard University have found that individual carbon-13 atoms in a diamond lattice can be manipulated with extraordinary precision to create stable quantum mechanical memory and a small quantum processor, also known as a quantum register, operating at room temperature. view more (2007-06-01)
UCSD study of nuclear receptors could change anti-inflammatory treatments
Several nuclear receptor proteins appear to overlap in their ability to exert anti-inflammatory effects, according to new research by scientists at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). view more (2005-09-09)
Power of Molecular Imaging Reveals Secrets of the Heart
The extraordinary action of a new cellular therapy came to light as a result of powerful PET and SPECT imaging in a recent study reported in the April issue of the Journal of Nuclear Medicine. view more (2008-04-10)
Powerful Nearby Supernova Caught By Web
One of the nearest supernovas in the last 25 years has been identified over a decade after it exploded. This result was made possible by combining data from the vast online archives from many of the world's premier telescopes. view more (2008-09-26)
US satellite protection scheme could affect global communications
A proposed US system to protect satellites from solar storms or high-altitude nuclear detonations could cause side-effects that lead to radio communication blackouts, according to new research. view more (2006-08-15)
Porous ceramic foam - taking the heat out of furnaces
Concerns over the health effects on humans caused by RCF dust lead to a number of studies in the USA. The EU directive in November 1997 and growing legislation from EU member states, including Germany and The Netherlands, has lead to a widespread search for a suitable alternative. Hi-Por, developed by TMS, is proving to be one of the leading... view more... (1999-04-30)
A new approach to engineering for extreme environments
Composite materials such as fiberglass, which take on a mix of properties of their constituent compounds, have been around for decades. Now, an MIT materials scientist is taking composites to the nanoscale, where entirely new properties, not found in any of the original compounds, can emerge. view more (2009-06-30)
NC State Researchers
Researchers at North Carolina State University have used a mathematical model that allows them to get a clearer picture of the galaxy's youngest supernova remnant by correcting for the distortions caused by cosmic dust. view more (2009-04-23)
Blocking a premature aging syndrome with anticancer drugs
A class of anticancer drugs currently being evaluated in phase 3 clinical trials may also be an effective treatment for Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), a fatal genetic disorder that causes premature aging. view more (2005-08-30)
High calcium level in arteries may signal serious heart attack risk
Researchers may be able to predict future severe cardiac events in patients with known, stable coronary artery disease (CAD) using coronary calcium scoring, according to a study published in the online edition of Radiology. view more (2009-07-28)
