Nanomaterial to Help Reduce Carbon Dioxide Emissions
July 9, 2013 Researchers have developed a new nanomaterial that could help reduce carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fired power ... > full story -
Scientists Solve Titanic Puzzle of Popular Photocatalyst
July 8, 2013 A breakthrough in our understanding of the properties of titania (titanium dioxide) -- the basis of self-cleaning window technology -- has been made by scientists, uncovering a decades old ... > full story -
Unlikely Competitor for Diamond as Best Thermal Conductor: Boron Arsenide Potential for Cooling Applications
July 8, 2013 Researchers report the potential for boron arsenide to challenge the extraordinarily high thermal conductivity of diamond, which could pave the way for a more plentiful and affordable alternative to ... > full story -
Matter-Antimatter Asymmetry: Using the Sun to Illuminate a Basic Mystery of Matter
July 8, 2013 Antimatter has been detected in solar flares via microwave and magnetic-field data, according to researchers. The finding sheds light on the puzzling strong asymmetry between matter and antimatter by ... > full story -
Detection of Single Photons Via Quantum Entanglement
July 8, 2013 Almost 200 years ago, Bavarian physicist Joseph von Fraunhofer discovered dark lines in the sun's spectrum. It was later discovered that these spectral lines can be used to infer the chemical ... > full story -
Radically Better Smarphones May Be Possible Using System Inspired by Bird Migration: Molecular Chains Hypersensitive to Magnetic Fields
July 5, 2013 Researchers have for the first time created perfect one-dimensional molecular wires of which the electrical conductivity can almost entirely be suppressed by a weak magnetic field at room ... > full story -
Laser System Allows Determination of Atomic Binding Energy of the Rarest Element on Earth
July 4, 2013 The radioactive element astatine, the name of which is derived from the Greek word for 'instability,' is so rare on Earth that it has not yet been investigated to any greater extent and, as a ... > full story -
New Method to Generate Laughlin States With Atomic Systems
July 3, 2013 In 1998, the Nobel Prize in Physics was conferred to the discovery of a new type of quantum fluid with fractional charge excitations, known as Laughlin state. The production of this quantum state, ... > full story -
Rationale for the Next-Generation Particle Collider Developed
July 2, 2013 A new theory provides the rationale for the next-generation particle accelerator -- the International Linear Collider. The discovery of the Higgs boson at the CERN Large Hadron Collider in Geneva ... > full story -
Superconductor Created from Solvent
July 1, 2013 Researchers have turned a fairly common non-metallic solvent into a superconductor capable of transmitting electrical current with none of the resistance seen in conventional ... > full story
