Opening the gate to robust quantum computing: New technique for solid-state quantum info processing

Posted: 09 Apr 2012 10:39 AM PDT

Scientists have overcome a major hurdle facing quantum computing: How to protect quantum information from degradation by the environment while simultaneously performing computation in a solid-state quantum system.

NASA spacecraft spot something new on the sun

Posted: 09 Apr 2012 10:38 AM PDT

One day in the fall of 2011, a solar scientist did what he always does -- look through the daily images of the sun from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory. But on this day he saw something he'd never noticed before: A pattern of cells with bright centers and dark boundaries occurring in the sun's atmosphere, the corona.

'Nanobubbles' plus chemotherapy equals single-cell cancer targeting

Posted: 09 Apr 2012 10:37 AM PDT

Using light-harvesting nanoparticles to convert laser energy into "plasmonic nanobubbles," researchers have developed methods for delivering chemotherapy drugs directly into cancer cells. In tests on drug-resistant cancer, the researchers found the methods were up to 30 times more deadly to cancer cells than traditional chemotherapy and required less than one-tenth the clinical dose.

High-resolution atomic imaging of specimens in liquid by TEM using graphene liquid cell

Posted: 09 Apr 2012 10:37 AM PDT

Scientists have developed a technology that enables engineers to observe processes occurring in liquid media on the smallest possible scale which is less than a nanometer.

Faster, cheaper way found to cool electronic devices

Posted: 09 Apr 2012 07:39 AM PDT

Researchers have developed a more efficient, less expensive way of cooling electronic devices – particularly devices that generate a lot of heat, such as lasers and power devices.
