Physicists Create Highly Sensitive Explosives Detector
A tiny sensor that monitors electrical conductivity allows scientists to detect the presence of explosives. The sensor measures the conductivity of two different thin films, one made of a cobalt ... > more -
Chemists And Materials Scientists Develop Paint That Reveals Evidence Of Impacts
Chemists created a paint embedded with pressure-sensitive capsules that contain a contrastingly colored dye. Violent scratches, dents, or strikes cause the capsules to burst. Visual inspections for ... > more -
Food Chemists Use 'Edible Antifreeze' To Make Smoother Ice Cream
Chemists adding a tasteless edible protein called gelatin hydrolysate to ice cream find that it keeps ice crystals small, resulting in a smoother, more pleasing product. The protein inhibits the ... > more -
Mechanical Engineers Reinforce Flimsy Fishing Lures
Materials scientists and engineers added reinforcements to flexible plastic fishing lures to keep them from snapping off their hooks. Braiding microfibers into the lures with techniques used in ... > more -
Engineers Design Two Piece Magnetic Aquarium Pump
Chemical engineers developed a pump that splits into two pieces, a propeller for the interior of the aquarium and a motor for the exterior, connected across the glass wall by strong magnets. The ... > more -
Advanced CT Scanner Provides Cardiologists Faster, More Detailed Images
