| Freedom of assembly: Scientists see nanoparticles form larger structures in real time Posted: 19 Apr 2013 02:16 PM PDT Scientists have, for the first time, captured movies of nanoparticle self-assembly, giving researchers a new glimpse of an unusual material property. |
| Posted: 19 Apr 2013 09:11 AM PDT Smart electronics are taking the world by storm. From techno-textiles to transparent electronic displays, the world of intelligent technology is growing fast and a revolutionary new device has just been added to its ranks. Researchers have developed a new photoelectric device that is both flexible and transparent. |
| Technique unlocks design principles of quantum biology Posted: 19 Apr 2013 09:09 AM PDT Researchers have created a synthetic compound that mimics the complex quantum dynamics observed in photosynthesis and may enable fundamentally new routes to creating solar-energy technologies. |
| Hubble sees a unique cluster: One of the hidden 15 Posted: 19 Apr 2013 07:13 AM PDT Palomar 2 is part of a group of 15 globulars known as the Palomar clusters. These clusters, as the name suggests, were discovered in survey plates from the first Palomar Observatory Sky Survey in the 1950s, a project that involved some of the most well-known astronomers of the day, including Edwin Hubble. They were discovered quite late because they are so faint -- each is either extremely remote, very heavily hidden behind blankets of dust, or has a very small number of remaining stars. |
| Device to mitigate power outages, prevent equipment damage Posted: 19 Apr 2013 06:41 AM PDT Engineering researchers have developed equipment that will prevent rolling power outages by regulating or limiting the amount of excess current that moves through the power grid when a surge occurs. |
| NASA's Hubble sees a horsehead of a different color Posted: 19 Apr 2013 06:41 AM PDT Astronomers have used NASA's Hubble Space Telescope to photograph the iconic Horsehead Nebula in a new, infrared light. |
| Tests in New York City suggest how to improve emergency radio communications Posted: 18 Apr 2013 07:01 AM PDT Radio communications can be unreliable in underground tunnels and other large, complicated structures, posing a safety hazard for emergency responders. New tests of wireless emergency safety equipment have defined the challenges more precisely and suggest how emergency communications might be improved. |
| Battery low? Give your mobile some water Posted: 18 Apr 2013 06:48 AM PDT A power source for your mobile phone can now be as close as the nearest tap, stream, or even a puddle, with the world's first water-activated charging device. |
| Helpful for robotics: Brain uses old information for new movements Posted: 18 Apr 2013 06:46 AM PDT Information from the senses has an important influence on how we move. For instance, you can see and feel when a mug is filled with hot coffee, and you lift it in a different way than if the mug were empty. Neuroscientists have discovered that the brain uses two forms of old information in order to execute new movements well. This discovery can be useful for the field of robotics. |
