Packages of care for epilepsy in low- and middle-income countries
In the second in a six part series on treating mental health problems in resource-poor settings, Caroline Mbuba and Charles Newton (Centre for Geographic Medicine Research, Kenya Medical Research Institute, Kilifi, Kenya) discuss "packages of care" for treating epilepsy. view more (2009-10-13)
Action Replay of Powerful Stellar Explosion
Astronomers have made the best ever determination of the power of a supernova explosion that was visible from Earth long ago. By observing the remnant of a supernova and a light echo from the initial outburst, they have established the validity of a powerful new method for studying supernovas. view more (2008-03-24)
Spectacular Views Of An Exploding Star
An astronomer from the Isaac Newton Group of Telescopes has obtained spectacular images of the star V838 Monocerotis which became the brightest in our Galaxy when it exploded in January 2002. One of the images will be highlighted on the front cover of the journal Nature on 27 March 2003 and in a research paper published in the same issue. V838... view more... (2003-03-27)

XMM-Newton digs into the secrets of fossil galaxy clusters
Taking advantage of the high sensitivity of ESA's XMM-Newton and the sharp vision of NASA's Chandra X-Ray space observatories, astronomers have studied the behaviour of massive fossil galaxy clusters, trying to find out how they find the time to form- view more (2006-05-01)
New Evidence Links Stellar Remains to Oldest Recorded Supernova
The new study shows that the supernova remnant RCW 86 is much younger than previously thought. As such, the formation of the remnant appears to coincide with a supernova observed by Chinese astronomers in 185 A.D. The study used data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and the European Space Agency's XMM-Newton Observatory, view more (2007-01-05)
XMM-Newton reveals the origin of elements in galaxy clusters
Deep observations of two X-ray bright clusters of galaxies with ESA's XMM-Newton satellite allowed a group of international astronomers to measure their chemical composition with an unprecedented accuracy. view more (2006-05-11)
Black cohosh does not relieve menopausal hot flashes, Group Health researchers find
The popular herbal supplement black cohosh does not relieve hot flashes among women going through menopause, according to a study by researchers from Group Health Cooperative, a Seattle-based health care system. view more (2006-12-19)
Indians predated Newton 'discovery' by 250 years
A little known school of scholars in southwest India discovered one of the founding principles of modern mathematics hundreds of years before Newton - according to new research. view more (2007-08-14)
Film-maker opens the doors of perception
Cutting-edge film-maker and artist, Nichola Bruce, has received a NESTA (National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts) fellowship of up to £75,000 to research and create, through digital media, a sketchbook of works looking at the themes of memory and how we see. Hastings-based Nichola is a skilled film/programme maker who has... view more... (2002-07-30)
X-Rays Examine Colliding Galaxies
Galaxies were once thought of as `island universes` evolving slowly in complete isolation. This is now known not to be the case. By using the world`s most powerful X-ray observatories, UK astronomers are discovering that most of these gigantic star systems interact with each other in a wide variety of ways. During the UK National Astronomy Meeting... view more... (2002-04-07)
X-Ray Vision Of Violence In Interacting Galaxy Clusters
ROYAL ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY PRESS NOTICE: Ongoing research by an international team of astronomers is providing new insights into cataclysmic cosmic collisions between galaxy clusters. view more (2005-03-31)
Supernova leaves behind mysterious object
Thanks to data from ESA's XMM-Newton satellite, a team of scientists taking a closer look at an object discovered over 25 years ago have found that it is like none other known in our galaxy. view more (2006-07-10)
Antarctic research helps shed light on climate change on Mars
Researchers examining images of gullies on the flanks of craters on Mars say they formed as recently as a few hundred thousand years ago and in sites once occupied by glaciers. The features are eerily reminiscent of gullies formed in Antarctica's mars-like McMurdo Dry Valleys. view more (2008-08-29)

UK Astronomers look forward to looking back
When NASA launches its Space Infrared Telescope Facility (SIRTF) - the agency's fourth 'Great Observatory' - later this week, astronomers around the world will be looking forward to using one of the most powerful time machines ever built. Among those anticipating the opportunity to look back billions of years to an era when the universe was in its... view more... (2003-08-19)
FDG-PET accurate for evaluating lung tumor destruction from radiofrequency ablation
FDG-PET can be used to assess the amount of tumor destruction after radiofrequency ablation (RFA)-the use of heat to destroy tumors-for the treatment of lung tumors and may provide more valuable information than CT alone, according to a new study. view more (2006-05-01)
Detector systems science and technology experts meet at University of Leicester
A prestigious international conference at the University of Leicester is set to further enhance the University’s standing as a world-leading centre in space science research. The University is hosting the Sixth International Conference on Position Sensitive Detectors (PSD6) between September 9 and September 13. These conferences were started... view more... (2002-09-04)
Comparison of cocaine and methamphetamine 'highs' finds differences in onset, pattern and duration
