| New way to plug 'leaky' light cavities demonstrated Posted: 10 Dec 2014 11:08 AM PST Engineers have demonstrated a new and more efficient way to trap light, using a phenomenon called bound states in the continuum that was first proposed in the early days of quantum wave mechanics.  |
| Posted: 10 Dec 2014 09:13 AM PST Virtual reality is a powerful tool to simulate real-life environments and situations. Scientists are exploring the medium as a way to help people with cognitive limitations overcome difficulties in life. Among the many kinds of disabilities, cognitive deficits may bring more hindrance to a person's life than others. For examples, dementia affects a patient's ability to do basic tasks such as grocery shopping or traveling to a specific place.  |
| Pros and cons of using big data to monitor drug safety Posted: 10 Dec 2014 08:41 AM PST Although healthcare databases have allowed for greater access to real world medical data, using databases to evaluate the safety of medical products is complex and requires careful research consideration, a new report warns.  |
| Scientists resolve spin puzzle Posted: 10 Dec 2014 05:06 AM PST Scientists have helped to uncover the properties of defects in the atomic structure of magnetite, potentially opening the way for its use in producing more powerful electronic devices.  |
| Long-term aging of electronics in nuclear weapons Posted: 10 Dec 2014 04:50 AM PST Researchers have studied radiation effects since the early days of nuclear weapons. But a 30-year program began in 2006 will provide real-time data for the first time on how electronics age within the weapon.  |
