| Researchers' refinement increases solar concentrator efficiency Posted: 19 Jan 2012 12:30 PM PST Researchers have discovered that changing the shape of a solar concentrator significantly increases its efficiency, bringing its use closer to reality.  |
| How protein in teardrops annihilates harmful bacteria: Novel technology reveals lysozymes have jaws Posted: 19 Jan 2012 11:33 AM PST A disease-fighting protein in our teardrops has been tethered to a tiny transistor, enabling scientists to discover exactly how it destroys dangerous bacteria. The research could prove critical to long-term work aimed at diagnosing cancers and other illnesses in their very early stages.  |
| Posted: 19 Jan 2012 07:15 AM PST Astronomers have captured a striking new image of the Helix Nebula. A new picture, taken in infrared light, reveals strands of cold nebular gas that are invisible in images taken in visible light, as well as bringing to light a rich background of stars and galaxies. The Helix Nebula is one of the closest and most remarkable examples of a planetary nebula.  |
| Snakes improve search-and-rescue robots: New design uses less energy Posted: 19 Jan 2012 07:12 AM PST Researchers have studied the movements of snakes to create more efficient search-and-rescue robots.  |
| 'Bubblegram' imaging: Novel approach to view inner workings of viruses Posted: 12 Jan 2012 12:16 PM PST Since the discovery of the microscope, scientists have tried to visualize smaller and smaller structures to provide insights into the inner workings of human cells, bacteria and viruses. Now, researchers have developed a new way to see structures within viruses that were not clearly seen before.  |
