Chemists Create Self-assembling Conductive Rubber
Polymer chemists have created a flexible, indestructible material, called metal rubber, that can be heated, frozen, washed or doused with jet fuel, and still retain its electricity-conducting ... > more -
Physicist Teaches Basic Science Principles To Help Basketball Players Make Their Shots Every Time
Basketball players looking to rule the court may need more than just skill and endurance to be a top player. A good dribble, some fancy footwork ... It might look good on the court, but when it comes ... > more -
Applied Physicist Invents Training Golf Club with Audio Feedback
A new golf club uses motion-detection sensors and wireless technology to coach players through the use of sound. A golfer can "hear" the speed of the swing in wireless headphones, and adjust swings ... > more -
Physicists Show "Antigravity" Mystery Spots Are Optical Illusions
At several hilly locations around the U.S., know as "gravity hills," objects such as cars left on neutral supposedly roll uphill, driven by unknown forces and against the force of gravity. Physicists ... > more -
Materials Scientists Create Polymer Coating Against Fogged Glass
When moisture condenses on a cool surface, droplets can form that are the right size to scatter light, fogging up glass. A new polymer coating draws droplets into nanopores and transforms them into a ... > more -
Materials Scientists Make Valentine Treats Affordable
New and improved technology has now made growing diamonds cost-competitive with mining them. Diamond-making machines subject a graphite-carbon core and a diamond seed at a pressure of 850,000 PSI for ... > more -
Acoustic Waves Could Help Put Out Flames in Zero-Gravity Environments
Aboard NASA's "Weightless Wonder" airplane, physicists are experimenting with combustion and fluid flows in zero-g and developing a fire extinguishing system based on sound waves. The technique could ... > more -
