Young stars ejecting plasma could give us clues into the Sun’s past Kyoto, Japan — Down here on Earth we don’t usually notice, but the Sun is frequently ejecting huge masses of plasma into space. These are called coronal mass ejections (CMEs). They often occur together with sudden brightenings called flares, and sometimes extend far enough to disturb Earth’s magnetosphere, generating space weather phenomena including auroras or geomagnetic storms, and even damaging power grids on occasion. Scientists believe that when…
Dwarf galaxies are the smallest known galaxies, and they could hold the key to understanding dark matter, and the process by which larger galaxies form.
The present invention addresses the AD-converter in the receiver which is in respect to power consumption a highly crucial component. By reducing the resolution down to 1 bit and simultaneously improving the signal-to-noise ratio by a new demodulator concept the invention offers a cost and power efficient design for the RF front-end.

Eye drops of blood serum are an established and very effective therapeutic agent in many ophthalmological diseases such as keratitis and dry eye syndrome.The production of serum eye drops and the partition in one-day-doses must be operated under clean room conditions in order to prevent any contamination of the eye drops.
This product allows a fast and easy production of eye drops from blood serum without the need of a clean room laboratory. The single use product utilizes a closed system, which guaran-tees the sterility of the serum eye drops.
Electrical sensing array for the detection of multiple biological or chemical species in complex samples with applications e.g. in chemical analysis and medical diagnostics.
Such a device allows for simultaneous and spatiotemporal detection of concentration gradients in test samples. A direct integration of the proposed sensor array into many kinds of sensing platforms like microfluidics or lab-on-a-chip systems is possible and a combination with conventional optical read-out techniques can be realized.
For the first time, researchers have produced a 3-D image revealing part of the inner structure of an intact, infectious virus, using a unique X-ray laser at…
