The Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) also reports that this was a decline of 3.2% or 4,400 students compared with 2012.
With this decision, the DFG is strengthening the successful cooperation of the agricultural science faculties at the University of Kassel and the University of…
The research, by Brown University geologists Ralph Milliken and Vivian Sun, is in press in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets.
Some of the natural gas harvested by hydraulic fracturing operations may be of biological origin–made by microorganisms inadvertently injected into shale by…
They say we can't escape our past–no matter how much we change, we still have the memory of what came before; the same can be said of our cells.
“These changes in air quality patterns aren't random,” said Bryan Duncan, an atmospheric scientist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt,…
Steel has already been around for roughly 3000 years and in several thousand variations today – yet it is always good for a surprise. Scientists at the…
Conventional measures of age usually define people as “old” at one chronological age, often 65. In many countries around the world, age 65 is used as a cutoff…
This effort, led by Jürgen Kerp (AIfA) and Benjamin Winkel (MPIfR), began in 2008 and has culminated today in the initial data release of the Effelsberg-Bonn…
One of the big mysteries in the history of the Earth is the emergence of plate tectonics. When exactly did the processes of plate tectonics begin that today…
The project involved scientists from Berlin, Cambridge, and San Francisco. For their study, this research team examined a protein known as MYC. MYC is a…
Whether it is in catalytic processes in the chemical industry, environmental catalysis, new types of solar cells or new electronic components, nanoparticles…
The results confirm the expected magic neutron number N=82 and are of significant relevance for simulation studies extending our understanding of the origin of…
The novel system for combined diagnosis and therapy, described here, allows for a radiographic examination for diagnostic purposes and therapeutic irradiation to be implemented using only a single device. This combination of therapy and diagnostics ? theranostics ? provides great advantages towards the current course of action, esp. time- and cost-reduction.
As climate observations show that global warming leads to fewer but more intense rainfalls, a clearer understanding of how these sources are replenished is…
The plasma researchers’ efforts and patience have paid off. On December 10th, a good ten years after the assembly of the Wendelstein 7-X fusion device began at…
