Vise squad: Putting the squeeze on a crystal leads to novel electronics
A clever materials science technique that uses a silicon crystal as a sort of nanoscale vise to squeeze another crystal into a more useful shape may launch a new class of electronic devices that remember their last state even after power is turned off. view more (2009-05-11)
New Law for Quantum Computers Disclosed
Arun Kumar Pati, who is currently at the University, but who is based at the Bhaba Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai, India, and Samuel L. Braunstein, at the School of Informatics have published a paper in the current issue of the International Journal, Nature [9 March 2000], describing their discovery of a new law, which they call the quantum... view more...

Plants' role in global warming re-examined in ORNL Science paper
Estimates of increased plant respiration in response to higher global temperatures may be somewhat overstated as they have not taken into account plants' ability to adjust to changing conditions, according to researchers from Oak Ridge National Laboratory. view more (2006-05-02)
ESF to launch eight more scientific programmes

Nanoscale imaging reveals unexpected behaviors in high-temperature superconductors
Recent discoveries regarding the physics of ceramic superconductors may help improve scientists' understanding of resistance-free electrical power. view more (2007-05-31)
Study of neighborhoods points to modifiable factors, not race, in cancer disparities
While cities have shown considerable racial disparities in cancer survival, those racial disparities virtually disappear among smaller populations, such as neighborhoods within that city. view more (2009-04-13)
New study reveals large scale conservation essential
Scientists were surprised with findings of a recent study that reveals many animal species believed to persist in small contained areas actually need broad, landscape level conservation to survive. view more (2008-06-10)
Cause of diabetes-related erectile dysfunction is clarified by Johns Hopkins researchers
A new study from the Brady Urological Institute at Johns Hopkins suggests an over-supply of a simple blood sugar could be a major cause of erectile dysfunction in diabetic men. view more (2005-08-10)
Study links high levels of nitric oxide to infertility and sperm DNA damage
Iranian scientists have linked a chemical that plays an essential role in many bodily functions to sperm DNA damage and male infertility. view more (2006-06-19)
Several tons of uranium and a town called Colonie
Recent research by the Department of Geology at University of Leicester, and at the British Geological Survey aims to improve understanding of how depleted uranium particulate behaves in the environment. view more (2007-06-27)
New statistical technique improves precision of nanotechnology data
A new statistical analysis technique that identifies and removes systematic bias, noise and equipment-based artifacts from experimental data could lead to more precise and reliable measurement of nanomaterials and nanostructures likely to have future industrial applications. view more (2009-07-01)
Adapting agricultural practices to reduce the greenhouse effect
More than one-third of the greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere stem from agriculture and forestry. One of the current concerns is to find ways of managing agriculture differently in order to increase the level of carbon storage in soils and limit emission of gases that contribute to global atmospheric warming. view more (2004-11-23)
Rice University researchers create 'nanorice'
Who better to invent "nanorice" than researchers at Rice University? But marketing and whimsy weren't what motivated the team of engineers, physicists and chemists from Rice's Laboratory for Nanophotonics (LANP) to make rice-shaped particles of gold and iron oxide. view more (2006-03-15)
Researchers develop detailed design rules for nanoimprint lithography processing
Using a combination of experimental data and simulations, researchers have identified key parameters that predict the outcome of nanoimprint lithography, a fabrication technique that offers an alternative to traditional lithography in patterning integrated circuits and other small-scale structures into polymers. view more (2006-04-24)
Caltech geobiologists discover unique 'magnetic death star' fossil
An international team of scientists has discovered microscopic, magnetic fossils resembling spears and spindles, unlike anything previously seen, among sediment layers deposited during an ancient global-warming event along the Atlantic coastal plain of the United States. view more (2008-10-23)
Girls and children exposed to tobacco smoke benefit more from montelukast (singulair)
Girls and children exposed to tobacco smoke respond particularly well to montelukast (Singulair) according to researchers at National Jewish Medical and Research Center. view more (2008-05-14)
Northwestern team develops 'MRI' for fuel cells
As gasoline prices top $3 a gallon in major cities, the drive toward increasing energy efficiency and reducing air pollution has accelerated, and the development of fuel cells has become a major focus worldwide. view more (2006-06-19)
New metal crystals, formed on a cotton assembly line
Appropriating cellulose fibers from cotton and crystallizing them, scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have grown never-before-seen configurations of metal crystals that show promise as components in biosensors, biological imaging, drug delivery and catalytic converters. view more (2007-03-27)
Oral contraceptives may benefit women with asthma
New research shows that during natural menstrual cycles, women with asthma who were not taking oral contraceptives (OC) had lower exhaled nitric oxide levels (eNO), a marker of airway inflammation associated with asthma, than women who were taking OC. view more (2009-11-05)
Lung damage in babies with congenital heart disease under study
Trying to understand and stop the collateral lung damage that can occur in babies with congenital heart disease is the focus of a new study. view more (2008-03-11)
