How many times have we seen Superman swoop down from the heavens and rescue a would-be victim from a rapidly oncoming train?
The hectare-scale map is the result of a collaboration led by WHRC scientists Josef Kellndorfer and Oliver Cartus with Mexico’s National Forestry Commission…
For the next several weeks, researchers will fly aboard NASA’s DC-8 research aircraft out of Punta Arenas, Chile. This year also marks the return to western…
This galaxy offers a peek back to the very early formative years of the universe and may just be the tip of the iceberg.
The new information will help researchers better understand how our nearest star transfers energy through its atmosphere and track the dynamic solar activity…
Their model predicts that a bright hot star, which is the binary companion to an exploding object, remains after the explosion. To verify their theory, the…
Christian Schlötterer and his team from the Institute for Population Genetics at the University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna study the genomes of entire…
Now, for the first time ever, an international team of researchers has successfully tested a new model that explains how magnetic fields form these emissions…
“Overdose victims are roughly twice as likely to have failed to finish secondary school successfully and one-and-a-half times more likely to be unemployed than…
Farming operations facing substantial pressures to adapt in response to changed economic and socio-political framework conditions in recent years. Increasing…
Microalgae store chemical energy as lipids. They include a large number of high-quality, poly-unsaturated fatty acids, which are essential for human nutrition and health.
Researchers from Goethe University in Frankfurt developed a method to increase the concentration of lipids in microalgae significantly by genetical manipulation of the enzyme TAG lipase.
Simultaneous insights into the micro dynamics and nano functionality of biological samples can be facilitated via correlative light and electron microscopy (CLEM). Scientists from Goethe University Frankfurt am Main developed novel software CLEM. It allows for the automated and efficient correlation of light- and electron-microscopic images from any two light and electron microscopes of choice with a precision of up to 25 nm.
Scientists, developers and engineers meet on 28th -29th April 2015 in Aachen at the international symposium “Advanced Battery Power” to exchange the latest…
Using 3-D printing and novel semiconductors, researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have created a power inverter that could…
Researchers from Columbia Engineering and the Georgia Institute of Technology report today that they have made the first experimental observation of…
