We know more about distant galaxies than we do about the interior of our own planet. However, by observing distant earthquakes, researchers at the University…
Scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Germany have now developed a computer model that can locate these regions using only the…
Jason C. Woods, PhD, an assistant professor of radiology and physics and assistant dean of Arts & Sciences, testified April 22 as the Investigations and…
Though scientists argue that the emerging technology of spintronics may trump conventional electronics for building the next generation of faster, smaller,…
Iron is the most useful magnet in our daily life. It is a ‘ferromagnet’ at room temperature and ambient pressure, but displays a variety of other magnetic…
What followed was one of the most remarkable sagas of the space age. Hubble's unprecedented capabilities made it one of the most powerful science instruments…
Information processing circuits in digital computers are static. In our brains, information processing circuits—neurons—evolve continuously to solve complex…
Wettability — the degree to which a liquid either spreads out over a surface or forms into droplets — is crucial to a wide variety of processes. It influences,…
Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) partners in the U.S, Germany and Italy announced April 21 that the first of two new innovative near-infrared…
Just as electronic circuits intelligently route the flow of electricity on computer chips without external controls, these microfluidic circuits regulate the…
“For the design of quantum computers, you need good quantum bits as information carriers,” says physicist Martin Kamp. So what constitutes a good quantum bit?…
The new Chip-Scale Photonic Testing Facility is located in the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (Calit2) on the UC San…
Taking inspiration from a popular executive toy (“Newton's cradle”), researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have built a device—called…
The finding is the latest advance in the quest to measure Earth-like planets that could possibly host signs of life, which researchers expect to find in the…
There are enticing new findings this week in the worldwide search for materials that support fault-tolerant quantum computing. New results from Rice University…
The international Supernova Cosmology Project (SCP), based at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, has announced the Union2…
