Mathematicians help unlock secrets of the immune system
A group of scientists, led by mathematicians, has taken on the challenge of building a common model of immune responses.   view more (2007-10-10)

EC Recycling Demands too simplistic
The European Union is becoming increasingly strict in its rules governing recycling in the automobile branch, but there seems to be little or no theoretical foundation for these rules. Antoinette van Schaik concludes this in her PhD thesis on car recycling, which she will defend on 8 December at TU... view more (2004-12-03)

Researchers at UCLA engineering discover theoretical model to predict jamming
Researchers at the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science have come up with a theoretical model to predict when granular materials become jammed.   view more (2008-04-28)

New understanding of blades to lead to better cutting of super-hard high tech materials
Advanced materials like AlTiC, sapphire and SiC are now commonly used in many devices. One popular area that they are applied in is read/write head sliders for computer hard drives.   view more (2006-06-28)

Delft research increases understanding of Earth's magnetic field
Research recently conducted at Delft University of Technology marks an important step forward in understanding the origins of the Earth's magnetic field. The research findings are published this week in the scientific journal Physical Review Letters.   view more (2007-03-12)

Seismic research without artificial source
Researchers at TU Delft have made progress in the theoretical foundation of a special subsoil imaging technique. This technique could be used to chart underground mineral resources, it is called "acoustic daylight imaging". The method uses natural acoustic signals, already present in the... view more (2004-12-21)

New study questions dark matter in galaxies and clusters of galaxies
A new paper examines galaxy rotation curves without exotic dark matter and seeks to describe a modified Newtonian acceleration law derived from a relativistic modification of Einstein's gravitational theory.   view more (2006-01-20)

Why the brain has 'gray matter'
By borrowing mathematical tools from theoretical physics, scientists have recently developed a theory that explains why the brain tissue of humans and other vertebrates is segregated into the familiar "gray matter" and "white matter."   view more (2006-01-12)

Invitation to the Media - String virtuosos gather in Oxford - 1st International Conference on String Phenomenology
Next week the University of Oxford is hosting a meeting of string experts - not in this case well-known musicians, but internationally renowned scientists. The meeting will bring together physicists who are striving to develop a consistent theory of the nature of matter - in other words, the basic... view more (2002-07-03)

University of Pennsylvania computer scientists put social network theory to the test
Ever since 1969, when psychologists Jeffery Travers and Stanley Milgram first explained that everyone was separated by only six connections from anyone else, researchers have created theoretical models of the networks that societies create.   view more (2006-08-11)

Physicists describe a new mechanism for metallic magnetism
Predicting the magnetic behavior of metallic compounds is a surprisingly difficult problem for theoretical physicists.   view more (2005-08-26)

Mobile phones are the new learning tools of the future
Major international research programme on Life as learning Mobile phones are the new learning tools of the future Mobile phones look set to become an important new learning tool for the future. One of the projects under the umbrella of the Academy of Finland international research programme Life... view more (2002-11-21)

Racing neurons control whether we stop or go
In the children's game "red light green light," winners are able to stop, and take off running again, more quickly than their comrades. New research reveals that a similar race goes on in our brains, with impulse control being the big winner.   view more (2007-04-19)

Super-computer reaches for the stars
Scientists at the University of York have been awarded a £234,000 grant for a powerful computer, called Beowulf, that will help them model large and fundamental happenings in the universe - from the evolution of the stars to the way in which DNA works. They will be using the grant from the... view more (2002-02-05)

UAB Researchers Develop a Model for Optimising the Magnetic Levitation of Superconductors
A research team in the Physics Department at the UAB, formed by Àlvar S' nchez, Carles Navau (also lecturer and researcher at the Escola Universitaria Salesiana de Sarri' ) and Enric Pardo, have developed a complete theoretical model that allows for the detailed study of the magnetic force of... view more (2002-10-01)

FSU researchers determine a critical factor in workings of proteins

Local interventions have little effect on metapopulation stability
Stabilizing fluctuations in the number of individuals in fragmented populations of threatened species is an important concern in conservation biology.   view more (2007-02-21)

New possibilities for drug design
An article in Journal of Physics B, published on 7 July 2003 by the Institute of Physics, reports on a new technique which could in future help scientists working in rational drug design (a way of tailoring a new drug to fit the structure of the protein it targets) to develop drugs more... view more (2003-07-04)

Physicists create millimeter-sized 'Bohr atom'
Nearly a century after Danish physicist Niels Bohr offered his planet-like model of the hydrogen atom, a Rice University-led team of physicists has created giant, millimeter-sized atoms that resemble it more closely than any other experimental realization yet achieved.   view more (2008-07-01)
