| Spotting ultrafine loops in the sun's corona Posted: 12 Jun 2012 04:32 PM PDT A key to understanding the dynamics of the sun and what causes the great solar explosions there relies on deciphering how material, heat and energy swirl across the sun's surface and rise into the upper atmosphere, or corona. Scientists have for the first time observed a new facet of the system: Especially narrow loops of solar material scattered on the sun's surface, which are connected to higher lying, wider loops.  |
| Quantum computers could help search engines keep up with the Internet's growth Posted: 12 Jun 2012 11:46 AM PDT With the web constantly expanding, researchers have proposed – and demonstrated the feasibility – of using quantum computers to run Google's page ranking algorithm faster.  |
| A 'dirt cheap' magnetic field sensor from 'plastic paint' Posted: 12 Jun 2012 08:52 AM PDT Physicists have developed an inexpensive, highly accurate magnetic field sensor for scientific and possibly consumer uses based on a "spintronic" organic thin-film semiconductor that basically is "plastic paint."  |
| Making music with real stars: Kepler Telescope star data creates musical melody Posted: 12 Jun 2012 07:16 AM PDT Using star data from the Kepler Space Telescope, researchers have developed sounds that will be used in a song later this summer for a national recording artist.  |
| Potential carbon capture role for new CO2-absorbing material Posted: 12 Jun 2012 07:14 AM PDT A novel porous material that has unique carbon dioxide retention properties has just been developed.  |
| Radiation-resistant circuits from mechanical parts Posted: 12 Jun 2012 07:12 AM PDT Engineers have designed microscopic mechanical devices that withstand intense radiation and heat, so they can be used in circuits for robots and computers exposed to radiation in space, damaged nuclear power plants or nuclear attack.  |
