Fathers need their children
Single fathers should never be prevented from seeing their children. Even in the toughest family conflicts, interaction should always continue between father and child according to sociologist Germain Dulac, a researcher at the Université de Montréal's Interdisciplinary Research Centre on Violence Against Women and Families. view more (2008-09-09)
Separation from mom, dad linked with learning trouble in kids
In the wake of divorce, illness, violence and other problems that can unsettle homes, countless young children are liable to experience temporary separations from one or both parents before packing their knapsack for kindergarten. view more (2008-05-16)
ACHEMASIA 2004: Scale-out for Highest Product Purity
The Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz GmbH (IMM) has developed a flexible system which evenly distributes a liquid flow to six different micromixers without an active flow regulation being necessary. The liquid distribution system was operated with selected impinging jet micro mixers and specifically adjusted separation layer micro mixers... view more... (2004-05-13)
Bird Feathers Produce Color Through Structure Similar to Beer Foam
Some of the brightest colors in nature are created by tiny nanostructures with a structure similar to beer foam or a sponge, according to Yale University researchers. view more (2009-04-06)
Let water power your mobile phone: scientists discover new source of electricity
A new way of generating electricity from flowing water could mean that in the future you will never have to charge up your mobile phone again. Instead of a normal battery, mobile phones could be fitted with a battery that uses water - you just need to pressurise it regularly. This is the first new way of generating electricity discovered in over... view more... (2003-10-13)
Separation Day Arrives for Mars Express and Beagle 2
After a joint journey of 250 million miles (400 million km), the British-built Beagle 2 spacecraft and the European Space Agency's Mars Express orbiter should now have parted and gone their separate ways. At 8.31 GMT, software on Mars Express was scheduled to send the command for the Beagle 2 lander to separate from the orbiter. This would fire a... view more... (2003-12-19)
Huygens sets off with correct spin and speed
On Christmas Day 2004, the Cassini spacecraft flawlessly released ESA's Huygens probe, passing another challenging milestone for Cassini-Huygens mission. But, with no telemetry data from Huygens, how do we know the separation went well? view more (2005-01-11)
Earth's turbulence stirs things up slower than expected
In a simple world rivers would flow in straight lines, every airplane ride would be smooth, and we would know the daily weather 10 years into the future. But the world is not simple - it is turbulent. view more (2006-03-06)
Ending the endless political debates - Delft model explains weak decision making round large infrastructure projects
Unpleasant surprises in large-scale infrastructure projects - such as construction of the Betuwe rail line and expansion of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol - often arise from of a lack of useful knowledge. This is one conclusion of Odette van de Riet's PhD dissertation, which she will defend Monday 17 March at the Delft University of Technology. To... view more... (2003-03-13)
MIT solves 100-year-old engineering problem
As a car accelerates up and down a hill then slows to follow a hairpin turn, the airflow around it cannot keep up and detaches from the vehicle. This aerodynamic separation creates additional drag that slows the car and forces the engine to work harder. The same phenomenon affects airplanes, boats, submarines, and even your golf ball. view more (2008-09-26)
From 2-D blueprint, material assembles into novel 3-D nanostructures
An international team of scientists affiliated with the University of Wisconsin-Madison Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center has coaxed a self-assembling material into forming never-before-seen, three-dimensional nanoscale structures, with potential applications ranging from catalysis and chemical separation to semiconductor manufacturing. view more (2006-01-30)
ANALYTICA 2004: Trapping Smallest Bioparticles
The Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz GmbH (IMM) and the Norwegian NorChip AS have jointly developed a chip-based µ-concentrator. Suited for application in biomedical diagnostics, the dielectrophoresis (DEP) chip permits selective separation and concentration of polarisable bioparticles such as viruses and bacteria from a complex substance... view more...

Magnetic nanoparticles facilitate separations in 'one-pot' multi-step reactions
Using the unique properties of new nanometer-scale magnetic particles, researchers have for the first time separated for reuse two different catalysts from a multi-step chemical reaction done in a single vessel. view more (2006-03-15)
Improving your diet may not help you beat stress
Research published online in the Journal of Proteome Research, shows how improving the diet of rats placed in stressful environments did not normalise their metabolic profile, an indicator of their health. view more (2006-07-06)
First Direct Observations of Spinons and Holons
Working at the Advanced Light Source (ALS) of the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, a team of researchers has observed the theoretical prediction of electron "spin-charge separation" in a one-dimensional solid. view more (2006-07-17)
Study says eyes evolved for X-Ray vision
The advantage of using two eyes to see the world around us has long been associated solely with our capacity to see in 3-D. Now, a new study from a scientist at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute has uncovered a truly eye-opening advantage to binocular vision: our ability to see through things. view more (2008-08-29)
Scientists at VTT and the University of Florida take immunotechnology to a new level
Scientists at VTT and the University of Florida take immunotechnology to a new level Mimicking the cell walls transport system by biocoated nanotubes opens novel possibilities for numerous applications Living cells transport selectively molecules in and out through their cell walls. This process is remarkably accurate and efficient. In... view more... (2002-07-04)
Stress fast tracks puberty
Stress, such as that brought on by parental separation and absentee fathers, fast tracks puberty, say researchers in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health. view more (2006-10-19)
Healing a shoulder separation
While low-level shoulder separations can commonly be treated nonsurgically and high-level injuries often require surgery, a literature review published in the April 2009 issue of the Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (JAAOS) finds that many surgeons still disagree on the best course of treatment for those injuries that fall... view more...

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)
