Ultrashort light pulse blazes new paths for science, industry
Researchers in Italy have created an ultrashort light pulse-a single isolated burst of extreme-ultraviolet light that lasts for only 130 attoseconds (billionths of a billionth of a second). view more (2007-05-02)
Stunt doubles: Ultracold atoms could replicate the electron 'jitterbug'
Ultracold atoms moving through a carefully designed arrangement of laser beams will jiggle slightly as they go, two NIST scientists have predicted. view more (2008-03-11)
IBEX spacecraft detects fast neutral hydrogen coming from the moon
NASA's Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) spacecraft has made the first observations of very fast hydrogen atoms coming from the moon, following decades of speculation and searching for their existence. view more (2009-06-19)
Researchers study role of natural organic matter in environment
The decomposition of plant, animal and microbial material in soil and water produces a variety of complex organic molecules, collectively called natural organic matter. These compounds play many important roles in the environment. view more (2006-12-12)
Metal-containing compounds show promise as HIV weapon
A molecule consisting of two "cages" of metallic atoms bound to carbon has shown great promise in preliminary tests of becoming a new weapon in the anti-HIV arsenal, researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center report. view more (2005-11-01)
Bucky's brother -- The boron buckyball makes its debut
A new study by Rice University scientists predicts the existence and stability of another "buckyball" consisting entirely of boron atoms. view more (2007-04-24)
Detecting the Traces of Mystery Matter
Using high-speed collisions between gold atoms, scientists think they have re-created one of the most mysterious forms of matter in the universe - quark-gluon plasma. view more (2005-08-01)
Really Hot Stars
Spectacular VLT Photos Unveil Mysterious Nebulae Quite a few of the most beautiful objects in the Universe are still shrouded in mystery. Even though most of the nebulae of gas and dust in our vicinity are now rather well understood, there are some which continue to puzzle astronomers. This is the case of a small number of unusual nebulae that... view more... (2003-04-09)
New system for detection of single atoms
Scientists have devised a new technique for real-time detection of freely moving individual neutral atoms that is more than 99.7% accurate and sensitive enough to discern the arrival of a single atom in less than one-millionth of a second, about 20 times faster than the best previous methods. view more (2009-05-18)
Quantum computers could excel in modeling chemical reactions
Quantum computers would likely outperform conventional computers in simulating chemical reactions involving more than four atoms, according to scientists at Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Haverford College. view more (2008-11-21)
Improved technique determines structure in membrane proteins
Understanding the form and function of certain proteins in the human body is becoming faster and easier, thanks to the work of researchers at the University of Illinois. view more (2008-08-18)
Best Microchemical Study of an Archeomaterial
Bronze age artifacts, physical links between us and people alive 3000 years ago, have long been closely examined with physics-based instruments such as x-ray crystallography and mass spectrometry. Now scrutiny of microchemical surface properties of such ancient bronze in some respects surpasses the diagnostic information gained by... view more... (2001-09-04)
First Bose-Einstein condensation of strontium
In an international first, scientists from the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) produced a Bose-Einstein condensate of the alkaline-earth element strontium, thus narrowly winning an international competition between many first-rate scientific groups view more (2009-11-10)
New imaging technique reveals the atomic structure of nanocrystals
A new imaging technique developed by researchers at the University of Illinois overcomes the limit of diffraction and can reveal the atomic structure of a single nanocrystal with a resolution of less than one angstrom (less than one hundred-millionth of a centimeter). view more (2009-02-19)
Growing whiskers that won`t need shaving
As manufacturers try to incorporate more and more functions into electronic gadgets like mobile phones and laptop computers, and at the same time decrease their size, the need for smaller electronic circuit components increases. At the 26th International Conference on the Physics of Semiconductors in Edinburgh on Thursday 1 August, Prof Lars... view more... (2002-07-23)
Drug slows and may halt Parkinson's disease
Northwestern University researchers have discovered a drug that slows - and may even halt - the progression of Parkinson's disease. view more (2007-06-11)
New record for information storage and retrieval lifetime advances quantum networks
Physicists have taken a significant step toward creation of quantum networks by establishing a new record for the length of time that quantum information can be stored in and retrieved from an ensemble of very cold atoms. view more (2008-12-08)
Cholera pathogen reveals how bacteria generate energy to live
Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have discovered new details about how bacteria generate energy to live. In two recently published papers, the scientists add key specifics to the molecular mechanism behind the pathogen that causes cholera. view more (2007-01-30)
Movement of atoms viewed at 100 times higher than previous resolution
A paper published in Nature, by scientists at the Universities of Sheffield and Warwick and the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, describes how experts have used X-rays to see structures in unprecedented detail at the atomic scale. The technique is 100 times more sensitive than any other method, and has the potential to allow scientists to... view more... (2005-05-04)
UCR chemists prepare molecules that accelerate chemical reactions for manufacturing drugs
Chemists at the University of California, Riverside have synthesized a new class of carbenes - molecules that have unusual carbon atoms - that is expected to have wide applications in the pharmaceutical industry, ultimately resulting in a reduction in the price of drugs. view more (2005-08-22)
