For the first time, researchers at West Virginia University (WVU) have directly measured the complicated 3D patterns of flowing plasma as it strikes the walls…
Bolometer is a device for measuring electromagnetic radiation energy flow based on measurement of variations of physical parameters of thermosensitive element…
Researchers at General Atomics (GA) have invented a new kind of gamma ray camera that can image beams of energetic electrons inside ultra-hot fusion plasma.
In mammals, three types of adipose tissues exist. White adipocytes are mainly located in the abdominal and subcutaneous areas of the body and highly adapted to…
Overfishing of the world's oceans is a global problem. Politics, economy, society – all of them are required to search for a solution for increasing worldwide…
The scientists created the technique as a new and improved method for tracking the interactions within large neural networks in the brain.
Plasmas in fusion-energy producing devices are gases heated to millions of degrees that can carry millions of amperes of current. These superhot plasmas must…
Though the mechanisms that activate macrophages, a type of digestive white blood cell that targets foreign cells, remain incompletely understood, previous…
A study led by ecologists from the University of Konstanz shows that plants able to produce seeds without mates or pollinators are more likely to naturalize…
So-called monolayers are at the heart of the research activities. These “super materials” (as the prestigious science magazine “Nature” puts it) have been…
To rapidly carry information throughout the body, neurons form intricate networks by sending long protrusions to physically contact other neurons, sometimes…
The little butterfly-shaped organ is a powerhouse. A thyroid that releases too much or too little hormone can trigger a wide variety of health problems: For…
The invention describe a hydroelectric power station, which is arranged under water within a shaft. No buildings or constructional interventions are necessary. The power plant is not visible, has no noise emissions and is not endangered by flooding.
The technology relates to a method which realizes a two-dimensional separation of ionic species on the basis of the online coupling of ion chromatography and capillary electrophoresis. Through the orthogonality of the single methods the peak capacity can be increased significantly. The separation of ionic species is improved in a cost-effective way, e.g. for complex mixtures of nucleotides or cyclic nucleotides.
John J. Tobin, professor of astrophysics in the Homer L. Dodge Department of Physics and Astronomy, OU College of Arts and Sciences, led a global team of…
