Consequently, damage to or theft of technical equipment represents a dramatic financial and scientific loss. Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for…
Scientists from the University of the Saarland have managed to carry out a total synthesis of myrtucommulone. Starting from commercially available or known…
Now researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute, among others, have flipped things around and are exploiting the decay to create the so-called entanglement of…
Nanoscopic thermal and magnetic field detectors – which can be inserted into living cells – could enhance our understanding of everything from chemical…
A UZH research team has now achieved success with a novel form of treatment that involves encouraging the body’s own immune system to recognise and eliminate…
Researchers usually strive to perfectly shield ions (charged atoms) in quantum computing experiments from the outside world. Any “noise” or interference,…
A deadly menace stalks the loons, gulls, and other water birds of the Great Lakes region: Type E botulism, a neuromuscular disease caused when birds eat fish…
In order for textiles with built-in electronics to function over longer periods of time, all of the components need to be flexible and stretchable. In the…
This is a result of the “EU Software Cluster Benchmark 2013” (http://www.softwareclusterbenchmark.eu) published today. This study analyses 15 European hotspots…
In recent years, computer engineers have no longer been able to increase the clock rate of conventional processors. This means that it is not possible to boost…
Allergy-like immune reactions could represent a mechanism of the body that protects it against toxins. This surprising conclusion has been reached by…
TUM CREATE presents an electric taxi for use in tropical megacities at the 43rd Tokyo Motor Show. “EVA” showcases a new super-fast charging system recharging…
A study shows for the first time that X-ray lasers can be used to generate a complete 3-D model of a protein without any prior knowledge of its structure. An…
For the first time scientists have uncovered concrete evidence for highly energetic neutrinos stemming from outside our solar system.The IceCube experiment, a…
Scientists have figured out how calcium channels – the infinitesimal cell membrane pores that generate electrical signals by gating a charged-particle influx –…
In a paper published in Nature Genetics, researchers from Korea Institute of Ocean Science and Technology, Korea Genome Research Foundation, BGI, and other…
