A little frustration can make life interesting. This is certainly the case in physics, where the presence of competing forces that cannot be satisfied at the…
Care-O-bot 4®, alias Paul, approaches Saturn customers and welcomes them to the store. If they ask him about a certain product, he accompanies the customer to…
The discovery paves the way for microelectronic devices that are faster and capable of handling more power, and could also lead to more efficient solar panels….
It is difficult for steroids to dissolve in water, and they require corresponding excipients so that they can be used as medications. These molecules, also…
Physicists of the University of Hamburg in Germany have demonstrated for the first time the controlled writing and deleting of individual nanoscale magnetic…
When light strikes electrons in atoms, their state can change unimaginably quickly. The laser physicists at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) and the Max…
Since as early as the 1950s, toxic chemicals such as formaldehyde have been used to inactivate pathogens for so-called killed vaccines (e.g. to fight…
Programmed cell death is a basic pre-requisite for life, and its underlying mechanisms are immensely interesting not only for cancer research. The tri-national…
The invention concerns a device with which it is possible to examine the furcation area of the tooth root. For that, a spirally wounded tube is provided with glass fiber and a flush pipe. This makes the visual information out of the furcation area transferable. Moreover, the examined area can also be cleaned with the flush pipe.
According to the Standard Model of elementary particle physics, to each particle exists an antiparticle that is supposed to behave exactly the same way. Thus,…
For major corporations, it is easy to make the move into additive manufacturing: they can hire specialists, invest in new and expensive plant, or establish new…
The new technology, called NavCube, combines NASA's SpaceCube, a reconfigurable and fast flight computing platform, with the Navigator Global Positioning…
The object QSO B0218+357 is a blazar, a specific type of black hole. Researchers now assume that there is a supermassive black hole at the center of every…
Composites, such as carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP), have a high potential for lightweight construction and are therefore already now widely used in…
The work was based on two large studies that are intended to explain the mechanisms behind the development of type 1 diabetes (BABYDIAB and BABYDIET*). The…
“How do massive stars form?” is one of the fundamental questions in modern astrophysics, because these massive stars govern the energy budget of their host…
