Giant Planets Offer Help in Faster Research on Material Surfaces
June 5, 2013 New, fast and accurate algorithm, based on the mathematical formalism used to model processes accompanying interaction of light with gas planet atmospheres, is a major step towards better ... > full story -
Cosmic Rays: Galactic Knee and Extragalactic Ankle
June 3, 2013 A new experiment has yielded the important result that a characteristic bend in the energy spectrum of high-energy cosmic rays, also called "knee", is located at different energies for light and ... > full story -
Cool Electron Acceleration: Electron Pulses from Laser Accelerator
June 3, 2013 Physicists have produced electron pulses from a laser accelerator whose individual particles all have nearly the same tuneable ... > full story -
'Population Census' of Galaxies Buried in Dust
May 31, 2013 Conventional research on distant galaxies have been carried out mainly with visible light and near infrared light. However, it is possible that many galaxies in the universe have been overlooked as ... > full story -
Artificial Magnetic Monopoles Discovered
May 31, 2013 Scientists have managed to create artificial magnetic monopoles. To do this, they merged tiny magnetic whirls, so-called skyrmions. At the point of merging, the physicists were able to create a ... > full storyMore: -
Radiation Measured by NASA's Curiosity on Voyage to Mars Has Implications for Future Human Missions
May 30, 2013 Measurements taken by NASA's Mars Science Laboratory mission as it delivered the Curiosity rover to Mars in 2012 are providing NASA the information it needs to design systems to protect human ... > full story -
Global Warming Caused by CFCs, Not Carbon Dioxide, Researcher Claims in Controversial Study
May 30, 2013 Chlorofluorocarbons are to blame for global warming since the 1970s and not carbon dioxide, a researcher claims in a controversial new study. CFCs are already known to deplete ozone, but in-depth ... > full story -
Cosmic Glitch: Astronomers Discover New Phenomenon in Neutron Star
May 29, 2013 The physics behind some of the most extraordinary stellar objects in the universe just became even more puzzling. A group of astronomers has discovered a new kind of glitch in the cosmos, ... > full story -
Klein Tunneling: Coupled Particles Cross Energy Wall
May 29, 2013 A new model demonstrates that it is possible for two particles to cross an energy barrier together, where a single particle could not. For the first time, a new kind of so-called Klein tunneling -- ... > full story -
Models from Big Molecules Captured in a Flash
May 28, 2013 The structures of most of the two million proteins in the human body are still unknown, even at low resolution. A new algorithm solves the convoluted shapes of large molecules by using images of ... > full story
