New Particle Discovered at CERN
April 27, 2012 — Physicists have discovered a previously unknown particle composed of three quarks in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerator. A new baryon could thus be detected for the first time at ... > full story -
Seeing Inside the Nose of an Aircraft
April 26, 2012 — The "radar dome," the rounded nose of the aircraft contains important equipment that pilots need to monitor. If errors occur during the production of this "nose," -- tiny foreign particles, drops of ... > full story -
Molecule Movements That Make Us Think: Ion Channel’s Voltage Sensor Can Change Its Form
April 24, 2012 — Every thought, every movement, every heartbeat is controlled by lightning-quick electrical impulses in the brain, the muscles, and the heart. But too much electrical excitability in the membranes of ... > full story -
Toward a Test Strip for Detecting TNT and Other Explosives in Water
March 28, 2012 — Scientists have developed a new explosives detector that can sense small amounts of TNT and other common explosives in liquids instantly with a sensitivity that rivals bomb-sniffing dogs, the current ... > full story -
Ethical Considerations of Military-Funded Neuroscience
March 20, 2012 — The United States military and intelligence communities have developed a close relationship with the scientific establishment. In particular, they fund and utilize an array of neuroscience ... > full story -
Camera Peers Around Corners: New Imaging System Uses Opaque Walls, Doors or Floors as 'Mirrors'
March 20, 2012 — A new imaging system could use opaque walls, doors or floors as "mirrors" to gather information about scenes outside its line of ... > full story -
Icarus Experiment Measures Neutrino Speed: Even Neutrinos Are Not Faster Than Light
March 16, 2012 — The ICARUS experiment at the Italian Gran Sasso laboratory has reported a new measurement of the time of flight of neutrinos from CERN to Gran Sasso. The ICARUS measurement, using last year's short ... > full story -
Researchers Send 'Wireless' Message Using a Beam of Neutrinos
March 14, 2012 — Scientists have for the first time sent a message using a beam of neutrinos -- nearly massless particles that travel at almost the speed of light. The message was sent through 240 meters of stone and ... > full story -
Nanotube Technology Leading to New Era of Fast, Lower-Cost Medical Diagnostics
March 9, 2012 — Researchers have tapped into the extraordinary power of carbon "nanotubes" to increase the speed of biological sensors, a technology that might one day allow a doctor to routinely perform lab tests ... > full story -
Daya Bay: Discovery of New Kind of Neutrino Transformation
March 8, 2012 — The Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment collaboration has announced a precise measurement of the last of the unsolved neutrino "mixing angles," which determine how neutrinos oscillate among ... > full storyMore:
