Information Note: PPARC Funding for the Linear Collider
Recent articles in The Sunday Times [23 November 2003] and Research Fortnight [26 November 2003] stated that the Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council [PPARC] has received £700M from government for the Linear Collider, the next generation particle physics accelerator. This statement is incorrect. PPARC has not received funding for... view more... (2003-11-26)
What Happened to the Antimatter? Fermilab's DZero Experiment Finds Clues in Quick-Change Meson
Scientists of the DZero collider detector collaboration at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have announced that their data on the properties of a subatomic particle, the B_s meson ("B sub s"), suggest that the particle oscillates between matter and antimatter in one of nature's fastest rapid-fire... view more...

Tiny crystals promise big benefits for solar technologies
Los Alamos National Laboratory scientists have discovered that a phenomenon called carrier multiplication, in which semiconductor nanocrystals respond to photons by producing multiple electrons, is applicable to a broader array of materials that previously thought. view more (2006-01-05)
Mechanical motion used to 'spin' atoms in a gas
For the first time, mechanical motion has been used to make atoms in a gas "spin," scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) report. view more (2006-12-11)
Voracious black holes hide their appetite in dusty galaxies
A UK-led team of astronomers reports that they have tracked down an elusive population of black holes growing rapidly hidden behind clouds of dust. view more (2005-08-08)
Physicists step closer to understanding origin of the universe
The world's largest particle detector is nearing completion following the construction of its 'endcap' at the University of Liverpool. view more (2006-02-22)
NIAID scientists characterize the most infectious prion protein particles
A new study of prions-apparently malformed proteins that initiate deadly brain diseases such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans-has yielded surprising information about how the size of prions relates to their infectivity. view more (2005-09-08)
New device from CU physicist tests uncertainty principle to unprecedented level — and shows that looks can cool
In the submicroscopic world - the domain of elementary particles and individual atoms - things behave in the strange, counter-intuitive fashion governed by the principles of quantum mechanics. view more (2006-09-25)
Astronomers find first ever gamma ray clock
Astronomers using the H.E.S.S. telescopes have discovered the first ever modulated signal from space in Very High Energy Gamma Rays - the most energetic such signal ever observed. view more (2006-11-28)
New treatment option breaks Leukemia's resistance to chemotherapy, radiation therapy
German researchers set out to outwit cancer tumor cells that have become resistant to chemotherapy or radiation therapy and ended up expanding therapeutic applications of radionuclides in fighting leukemia. view more (2006-06-05)
Hi ho silver! FSU physicist helps discover an atomic oddity
Working with an international team of scientists, a Florida State University physics professor has taken part in an experiment that resulted in the creation of a silver atom with exotic properties never before observed. view more (2006-01-30)
First beam for Large Hadron Collider, world's mightiest particle accelerator
An international collaboration of scientists today sent the first beam of protons zooming at nearly the speed of light around the 17-mile-long underground circular path of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's most powerful particle accelerator, located at the CERN laboratory near Geneva, Switzerland. view more (2008-09-11)
Nanospheres that block pain of sensitive teeth
Nanospheres could help dentists fill the tiny holes in our teeth that make them incredibly sensitive, and that cause severe pain for millions of adults and children worldwide. view more (2005-09-02)
UK grid helps fight avian flu
During April, computers in the UK have been working overtime in the fight against avian flu. As part of an international collaboration, computers at eleven UK universities and research labs have put in one hundred thousand hours of time searching for possible drug components against the avian flu virus H5N1. view more (2006-05-04)
Physicists size up the 'unitarity triangle'
B factory experiments at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) in the USA and at the High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) in Japan have reached a new milestone in the quest to understand the matter-antimatter imbalance in our universe. view more (2006-06-26)
Rice University researchers create 'nanorice'
Who better to invent "nanorice" than researchers at Rice University? But marketing and whimsy weren't what motivated the team of engineers, physicists and chemists from Rice's Laboratory for Nanophotonics (LANP) to make rice-shaped particles of gold and iron oxide. view more (2006-03-15)
Researchers find new mechanism governing particle growth in nanocomposites
A research team from the Georgia Institute of Technology and Drexel University has discovered a surprising new mechanism by which polymer materials used in nanocomposites control the growth of particles. view more (2005-09-01)
Physicists Entangle Photon and Atom in Atomic Cloud
uantum communication networks show great promise in becoming a highly secure communications system. By carrying information with photons or atoms, which are entangled so that the behavior of one affects the other, the network can easily detect any eavesdropper who tries to tap the system. view more (2005-07-27)
Proofreading and error-correction in nanomaterials inspired by nature
Mimicking nature, a procedure developed by researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign can find and correct defects in self-assembled nanomaterials. view more (2005-10-19)
University of Colorado student-built instrument set to launch on Pluto mission
The University of Colorado at Boulder's long heritage with NASA planetary missions will continue Jan. 17 with the launch of a student space dust instrument on the New Horizons Mission to Pluto from Florida's Kennedy Space Center. view more (2005-12-29)
