Probing The Dynamics Of The Crab Pulsar And Gravitational Waves
June 2, 2008 — The search for gravitational waves has revealed new information about the core of one of the most famous objects in the sky: the Crab Pulsar in the Crab Nebula. An new analysis has shown that no more ... > full story -
Tapping The Early Universe For Secrets Of Fundamental Physics
May 23, 2008 — The future of fundamental physics research lies in observing the early universe and developing models that explain the new data obtained. The availability of much higher resolution data from closer ... > full story -
Physicists Demonstrate How Information Can Escape From Black Holes
May 15, 2008 — Physicists have provided a mechanism by which information can be recovered from black holes -- and the first plausible mechanism for how information might escape from black holes, those regions of ... > full story -
Gravity Wave 'Smoking Gun' Fizzles: Gravitational Radiation Can Be Produced More Than One Way
April 15, 2008 — Gravitational radiation -- widely expected to provide "smoking gun" proof for a theory of the early universe known as "inflation" -- can be produced by another mechanism, according to physics ... > full story -
Searching For A Tiny New Dimension, Curled Up Like The Universe Before The Big Bang
March 10, 2008 — Researchers are exploring the possibility of an extra dimension -- an imperceptibly small dimension, about one billionth of a nanometer. Researchers say: "This extra dimension would be curled up, in ... > full story -
Stunt Doubles: Ultracold Atoms Could Replicate The Electron 'Jitterbug'
March 10, 2008 — Ultracold atoms moving through a carefully designed arrangement of laser beams will jiggle slightly as they go, two NIST scientists have predicted. If observed, this never-before-seen "jitterbug" ... > full story -
Weaknesses In Structures -- From Massive Bridges To Nanotechnology -- Identified With New Gadget
March 4, 2008 — A new gadget can identify weaknesses in structures ranging from massive bridge construction to the tiniest elements of nanotechnology no larger than a speck of dust on a pinhead. The deformation ... > full story -
Scientists Propose Test Of String Theory Based On Neutral Hydrogen Absorption
January 28, 2008 — Ancient light absorbed by neutral hydrogen atoms could be used to test certain predictions of string theory, say cosmologists. Making the measurements, however, would require a gigantic array of ... > full story -
3D 'Invisibility Cloak' For Sound?
January 9, 2008 — Contrary to earlier predictions, Duke University engineers have found that a three-dimensional sound cloak is possible, at least in theory. Such an acoustic veil would do for sound what the ... > full story -
Einstein's Biggest Blunder? Dark Energy May Be Consistent With Cosmological Constant
November 27, 2007 — Einstein's self-proclaimed "biggest blunder" -- his postulation of a cosmological constant (a force that opposes gravity and keeps the universe from collapsing) -- may not be such a blunder after ... > full story
