Fermi's Motion Produces a Study in Spirograph
February 27, 2013 — NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope orbits our planet every 95 minutes, building up increasingly deeper views of the universe with every circuit. Its wide-eyed Large Area Telescope sweeps across ... > full story -
NASA's NuSTAR Helps Solve Riddle of Black Hole Spin
February 27, 2013 — Two X-ray space observatories, NASA's Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) and the European Space Agency's XMM-Newton, have teamed up to measure definitively, for the first time, the spin ... > full story -
Newly Observed Properties of Vacuums: Light Particles Illuminate the Vacuum
February 26, 2013 — Researchers have succeeded in showing experimentally that vacuums have properties not previously observed. According to the laws of quantum mechanics, it is a state with abundant potentials. Vacuums ... > full story -
Small Molecules in the Blood Might Gauge Radiation Effects After Exposure
February 25, 2013 — Researchers have identified molecules in the blood that might gauge the likelihood of radiation illness after exposure to ionizing radiation. The animal study shows that radiation predictably alters ... > full story -
Scientists Develop a Whole New Way of Harvesting Energy from the Sun
February 24, 2013 — A new method of harvesting the sun's energy is emerging. Though still in its infancy, the research promises to convert sunlight into energy using a process based on metals that are more robust than ... > full story -
Particle Physics Research Sheds New Light on Possible 'Fifth Force of Nature'
February 21, 2013 — In a breakthrough for the field of particle physics, researchers have established new limits on what scientists call "long-range spin-spin interactions" between atomic particles. These interactions ... > full storyMore: -
Faraday Cup Critical Part of Audacious Mission to the Sun
February 21, 2013 — A critical instrument on a mission to the sun is being tested. The flight's experiments could answer the question: How can the sun be hot at its core yet stay relatively cool at its surface, while at ... > full story -
Titanium Dioxide Nanoreactor: Synthesis to Produce Nanoparticles at Room Temperature in a Polymer Network
February 21, 2013 — Tiny particles of titanium dioxide are found as key ingredients in wall paints, sunscreens, and toothpaste; they act as reflectors of light or as abrasives. However with decreasing particle size and ... > full story -
NASA's SDO Shows a Little 'Rain' on the Sun
February 20, 2013 — Eruptive events on the sun can be wildly different. Some come just with a solar flare, some with an additional ejection of solar material called a coronal mass ejection, and some with complex moving ... > full story -
Sun's Next-Door Twin: Cool Layer in the Atmosphere of Alpha Centauri A
February 20, 2013 — The European Space Agency's Herschel space observatory has detected a cool layer in the atmosphere of Alpha Centauri A, the first time this has been seen in a star beyond our own Sun. The finding is ... > full story
