Physicist: Stars can be strange
According to the "Strange Matter Hypothesis," which gained popularity in the paranormal 1980's, nuclear matter, too, can be strange.   view more (2006-12-19)

Laser experiments reveal strange properties of superfluids
Princeton University electrical engineers are using lasers to shed light on the behavior of superfluids - strange, frictionless liquids that are difficult to create and study.   view more (2006-12-26)

G-Zero update
In research performed in Hall C, nuclear physicists have found that strange quarks do contribute to the structure of the proton. This result indicates that, just as previous experiments have hinted, strange quarks in the proton's quark-gluon sea contribute to a proton's properties. The result comes... view more (2006-06-30)

G-Zero Finds that Ghostly Strange Quarks Influence Proton Structure
In research performed at the Department of Energy's Jefferson Lab, nuclear physicists have found that strange quarks do contribute to the structure of the proton. This result indicates that, just as previous experiments have hinted, strange quarks in the proton's quark-gluon sea contribute to a... view more (2005-06-20)

U-M physicists' analysis leads to discovery of new particle
University of Michigan physicists played a leading role in the discovery of a new particle, the Omega b baryon, which is an exotic relative of the proton.   view more (2008-09-11)

A Vanishing Star Revisited
Reinhold H'¤fner of the Munich University Observatory (Germany) is a happy astronomer.   view more (1999-07-20)

Study sheds new light on early star formation in the universe
A groundbreaking study has provided new insight into the way the first stars were formed at the start of the Universe, some 13 billion years ago.   view more (2007-09-14)

Astronomers discover largest-ever dark matter structures spanning 270M light-years
A University of British Columbia astronomer with an international team has discovered the largest structures of dark matter ever seen. Measuring 270 million light-years across, these dark matter structures criss-cross the night sky, each spanning an area that is eight times larger than the full... view more (2008-02-22)

The Tiny Difference that Created the Universe
Roughly 15 billion years ago, during the Big Bang, equal amounts of matter and anti-matter should have been created, with an anti-particle for every particle created. Yet when matter and anti-matter meet, they both disappear in a flash of light, so why didn't they annihilate each other completely?... view more (2002-05-07)

Researchers using Arecibo Telescope discover never-before-seen pulsar blasts in Crab Nebula
Astronomers and physicists using the Cornell-managed Arecibo Telescope in Puerto Rico have discovered radio interpulses from the Crab Nebula pulsar that feature never-before-seen radio emission spectra. This leads scientists to speculate this could be the first cosmic object with a third magnetic... view more (2007-01-09)

Part-time pulsar yields new insight into inner workings of cosmic clocks
Astronomers using the 76-m Lovell radio telescope at the University of Manchester's Jodrell Bank Observatory have discovered a very strange pulsar that helps explain how pulsars act as 'cosmic clocks' and confirms theories put forward 37 years ago to explain the way in which pulsars emit their... view more (2006-03-03)

Mapping the cosmic web of dark matter
What is Dark Matter and where is it found? These are two of the major mysteries in current studies of the Universe. Although the nature of this invisible material remains elusive, astronomers are beginning to produce detailed maps of the Cosmos, showing its location in relation to the ordinary... view more (2002-04-03)

`Glowing` technique could detect river pollution
New technology used to analyse dissolved organic matter in river water could also help scientists detect and monitor pollution, according to a new research published in the journal Hydrological Processes (1). Dissolved organic matter is found in all river water, and can come from both a natural... view more (2002-10-07)

Tech researchers help find new sub-atomic particle - shollis
Six Louisiana Tech researchers in the physics department played a role in discovering a new sub-atomic particle whose existence was announced this week.   view more (2007-06-18)

Clash of clusters provides new dark matter clue
A powerful collision between galaxy clusters has been captured by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. This clash of clusters provides striking evidence for dark matter and insight into its properties.   view more (2008-08-28)

The dark matter of the universe has a long lifetime
New research from the Niels Bohr Institute presents new information that adds another piece of knowledge to the jigsaw puzzle of the dark mystery of the universe - dark matter. The research has just been published in the scientific journal Physical Review Letters.   view more (2007-10-02)

New journal 'SOFT MATTER' to be launched by the Royal Society of Chemistry
The largest organisation in Europe for advancing the chemical sciences, the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), announced yesterday at the Jülich Soft Matter Days 2004 conference that it will launch a new publication, Soft Matter, in Summer 2005.   view more (2004-11-17)

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)

FSU physicist shining a light on mysterious 'dark matter'
We've all been taught that our bodies, the Earth, and in fact all matter in the universe is composed of tiny building blocks called atoms. Now imagine if this weren't the case.   view more (2007-10-03)

Cooking with gas may increase inflammatory activity in the lungs
Cooking with gas may increase inflammatory activity in the lungs, suggests a study in Occupational and Environmental Medicine. Teflon filters were used to collect any particulate matter pollution emitted from gas and electric cookers. The residue was then applied to cultured cells that normally... view more (2001-02-10)

Changes in brain density can help predict schizophrenia
Changes in brain density could be used to predict whether an individual who is at risk for schizophrenia is likely to develop the condition or not.   view more (2006-12-07)

Dark matter mystery deepens in cosmic 'train wreck'
Astronomers have discovered a chaotic scene unlike any witnessed before in a cosmic "train wreck" between giant galaxy clusters.   view more (2007-08-17)

Scientists solve cosmological puzzle
Researchers using supercomputer simulations have exposed a very violent and critical relationship between interstellar gas and dark matter when galaxies are born - one that has been largely ignored by the current model of how the universe evolved.   view more (2007-11-30)

Why matter matters in the universe
A new physics discovery explores why there is more matter than antimatter in the universe.   view more (2008-03-31)

In the first second of Creation
At the very beginning of the Universe both forms of matter existed in equal amounts. They should have cancelled themselves out leaving just energy. But, within a second, something happened to ensure that matter prevailed - and that the Universe could develop in the way that it did. BaBar should... view more (1999-06-11)
