A new generation of ultra-small and high-precision lasers emerges Posted: 26 Apr 2012 02:41 PM PDT Ultra fast, robust, stable, and high precision: these are some of the characteristics of a new laser. The ultra-small laser paves the way for a new generation of highly powerful, ultra-stable integrated lasers. |
New guide for research on multiblock polymers emerges Posted: 26 Apr 2012 11:39 AM PDT Thanks to advances in polymer chemistry and a wide variety of monomer constituents to choose from, the world of multiblock polymers is wide open. These polymers can result in an astonishing array of materials, customizable to almost any specification. |
New form of lava flow discovered on Mars Posted: 26 Apr 2012 11:38 AM PDT High-resolution photos of lava flows on Mars reveal coiling spiral patterns that resemble snail or nautilus shells. Such patterns have been found in a few locations on Earth, but never before on Mars. The discovery was made by a graduate student and published in Science. |
NASA's WISE catches aging star erupting with dust Posted: 26 Apr 2012 10:45 AM PDT Images from NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) reveal an old star in the throes of a fiery outburst, spraying the cosmos with dust. The findings offer a rare, real-time look at the process by which stars like our sun seed the universe with building blocks for other stars, planets and even life. |
Seeing inside the nose of an aircraft Posted: 26 Apr 2012 07:49 AM PDT Radio signals reach pilots on board an aircraft through the "radar dome", the rounded nose of the aircraft. But if errors occur during the production of this "nose", – tiny foreign particles, drops of water or air bubbles – this can impede radio traffic. In the future, a non-destructive testing system will identify just such imperfections during production. |
