Shiny new tool for imaging biomolecules

Posted: 23 Mar 2012 05:55 PM PDT

Researchers have developed a technique for lacing artificial membranes with billions of gold nanoantennas that can boost optical signals from a protein tens of thousands of times without the protein ever being touched. This technique could provide a critical tool in the fight against a wide range of health problems including cancer.

New theory on size of black holes: Gas-guzzling black holes eat two courses at a time

Posted: 23 Mar 2012 10:48 AM PDT

Astronomers have put forward a new theory about why black holes become so hugely massive -- claiming some of them have no 'table manners', and tip their 'food' directly into their mouths, eating more than one course simultaneously.

Swarming and transporting

Posted: 23 Mar 2012 06:39 AM PDT

On its own, an ant is not particularly clever. But in a community, the insects can solve complicated tasks. Researchers intend to put this "swarm intelligence" to use in the logistics field. Lots of autonomous transport shuttles would provide an alternative to traditional materials-handling technology.

Standoff sensing enters new realm with dual-laser technique

Posted: 22 Mar 2012 02:36 PM PDT

Identifying chemicals from a distance could take a step forward with the introduction of a new two-laser system.

Quantum copies do new tricks

Posted: 22 Mar 2012 12:15 PM PDT

New research shows that it is possible to perfectly recover the original from the imperfect quantum copies. Scientists also propose a way that his could be done in practice.
