Now, Jason Samson, a PhD candidate in McGill University’s Department of Natural Resource Sciences, has taken the innovative step of using the same analytic…
In a separate paper, also to be published by PNAS, many of the same scientists describe a model they devised that predicts doubling today's carbon dioxide…
The system, known as RTerg, could help reduce the death toll by giving local residents valuable time to move to safer ground. The study by researchers at the…
Research focuses on supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO2) Brayton-cycle turbines, which typically would be used for bulk thermal and nuclear generation of…
Every year, nitrogen-metabolizing bacteria in the soil and seas churn out more than ten billion kilograms of nitrous oxide (N2O) gas as they respire in these…
Within the cells, the RNA polymerase (RNAP) protein complex clutches DNA like a crab claw, scanning across gene-coding regions and transcribing these sequences…
The properties of a material are greatly affected by the electrical and magnetic structure of its constituent ions and electrons. In a ferromagnet, for…
In studying the chronic exposure of rats to low dosage of methyl-mercury, an environmental contaminant commonly found in seafood, Professor Samuel Lo and his…
A team of materials scientists, mechanical and electrical engineers, and physicians has successfully integrated stretchable electronics technology with…
They intend to use mixtures of molten salts as heat transfer media in the High Performance Solar Thermal Power project. In conjunction with partners,…
The findings may lead to a greater understanding of how our solar system and possibly other solar systems formed and evolved. CAIs, roughly millimeter- to…
Monitoring the amount of oxygen in living tissues accurately is a valuable tool in biomedical science, because it enables the elucidation of the course of…
Siemens Healthcare has added new functions to Syngo Embolization Guidance to simplify and accelerate the minimally invasive embolization of benign tumors such…
Following on from the amazing success of the first computed tomography (CT) image contest in 2010, Siemens Healthcare has announced the “International CT Image…
In some cases, soot – the fine, black carbon silt that is released from stoves, cars and manufacturing plants – can pack more of a climatic punch than…
The technique offers a new research tool that can be used to study in detail the mechanism by which viruses attack cells, and might even become the basis for a…
