They hope to gain insights into how organic molecules form in space, and possibly, how life formed on Earth.”The chemistry of space makes molecules that are…
During the last two decades, astronomers have found hundreds of planets orbiting stars outside our solar system. New research indicates they might have found…
“Nanoneedle-based delivery is a powerful new tool for studying biological processes and biophysical properties at the molecular level inside living cells,”…
The Large Hadron Collider is an enormous particle accelerator whose 17-mile tunnel straddles the borders of France and Switzerland. A group of physicists at…
MpCCI (Mesh-based parallel Code Coupling Interface) has been developed by the Fraunhofer-Institute SCAI to link a wide variety of simulation programs including…
The work reported in an April 26 advance online publication of Nature Nanotechnology ushers in a new generation of tools for ultra-sensitive measurements at…
Having confirmed its existence, scientists today are learning how to use this 'spooky action' as a helpful tool. Now a team of physicists at the University of…
This is the first extensive sequence of helium-core white dwarfs to be observed in a globular cluster, a dense swarm of some of the oldest stars in our galaxy.
Objects such as this one are dubbed extended Lyman-Alpha blobs; they are huge bodies of gas that may be precursors to galaxies. This blob was named Himiko for…
Their new data provides evidence that this remnant is from a type Ia supernova – the explosion of a white dwarf star – and raises questions about the ways in…
The planet, “e”, in the famous system Gliese 581, is only about twice the mass of our Earth. The team also refined the orbit of the planet Gliese 581 d, first…
Scientists at the Cambridge University have discovered that freshwater algae can form stable groupings in which they dance around each other, miraculously held…
The method opens the door for targeted design of antenna-based applications including highly sensitive biosensors and extremely fast photodetectors, which…
The study analyzes the interactions on the Moon among electrostatic adhesive forces, the angle of incidence of the sun's rays, and lunar gravity. It concludes…
A new ordered phase is predicted for geometrically frustrated spin systems even in the absence of magnetic order RIKEN scientists, in collaboration with…
The international collaboration is comprised of researchers from the University of Colorado, USA and the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen…
