Astronomers find 18 new planets: Discovery is the largest collection of confirmed planets around stars more massive than the sun Posted: 02 Dec 2011 12:58 PM PST Discoveries of new planets just keep coming and coming. A team of astronomers has found 18 Jupiter-like planets in orbit around massive stars. The discoveries further constrain theories of planet formation.

Instant nanodots grow on silicon to form sensing array Posted: 02 Dec 2011 12:55 PM PST Scientists have shown that it is now possible to simultaneously create highly reproductive three-dimensional silicon oxide nanodots on micrometric scale silicon films in only a few seconds. Scientists were able to create a square array of such nanodots, using regularly spaced nanoindents on the deposition layer, that could ultimately find applications as biosensors for genomics or bio-diagnostics.
