Gordon Research Conferences: Nanomaterials for Energy Technology

03.02.2013 - 08.02.2013

On the initiative of the Center for Nanointegration Duisburg-Essen (CENIDE), a new series of the prestigious Gordon Research Conferences is launched.

The overarching theme is called "Nanomaterials for Energy Applications", the first conference will take place from February 3rd to 8th 2013 in Ventura, CA (US).

For scientists from academia and industry working on nanobased technologies for sustainable and affordable energy supplies this conference series offers a platform for exchange at the forefront of science.

The first meeting under the direction of CENIDE Professor Markus Winterer is about the basic understanding of nanostructured materials that convert or store energy in an electro-optical, -chemical, or -thermal way.

Gordon Research Conferences are a group of highly respected scientific conference series, organized since 1931 by the non-profit organization of the same name. Contents of these conferences are among the cutting-edge research topics and regularly appear in journals like "Science" and “Nature”.

Overview of the latest five Focus news of the innovations-report:

In the focus: GPS solution provides three-minute tsunami alerts

Researchers have shown that, by using global positioning systems (GPS) to measure ground deformation caused by a large underwater earthquake, they can provide accurate warning of the resulting tsunami in just a few minutes after the earthquake onset.

For the devastating Japan 2011 event, the team reveals that the analysis of the GPS data and issue of a detailed tsunami alert would have taken no more than three minutes. The results are published on 17 May in Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, an open access journal of ...

In the focus: NASA Satellite Data Helps Pinpoint Glaciers' Role in Sea Level Rise

A new study of glaciers worldwide using observations from two NASA satellites has helped resolve differences in estimates of how fast glaciers are disappearing and contributing to sea level rise.

The new research found glaciers outside of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets, repositories of 1 percent of all land ice, lost an average of 571 trillion pounds (259 trillion kilograms) of mass every year during the six-year study period, making the oceans rise 0.03 inches (0.7 mm) per year. ...

In the focus: Sea level: one third of its rise comes from melting mountain glaciers

About 99% of the world’s land ice is stored in the huge ice sheets of Antarctica and Greenland, while only 1% is contained in glaciers.

However, the meltwater of glaciers contributed almost as much to the rise in sea level in the period 2003 to 2009 as the two ice sheets: about one third. This is one of the results of an international study with the involvement of geographers from the University of Zurich.

In the focus: Observation of Second Sound in a Quantum Gas

Second sound is a quantum mechanical phenomenon, which has been observed only in superfluid helium.

Physicists from the University of Innsbruck, Austria, in collaboration with colleagues from the University of Trento, Italy, have now proven the propagation of such a temperature wave in a quantum gas. The scientists have published their historic findings in the journal Nature.

Below a critical temperature, certain fluids become superfluid ...

In the focus: Using clay to grow bone

Researchers use synthetic silicate to stimulate stem cells into bone cells

In new research published online May 13, 2013 in Advanced Materials, researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) are the first to report that synthetic silicate nanoplatelets (also known as layered clay) can induce stem cells to become bone cells without the need of additional bone-inducing factors.

Synthetic silicates are made ...
