| Posted: 19 Jul 2013 11:00 AM PDT A protein found in the membranes of ancient microorganisms that live in desert salt flats could offer a new way of using sunlight to generate environmentally friendly hydrogen fuel according to a new study.  |
| Internet's backbone can readily be made more sustainable, experts say Posted: 19 Jul 2013 10:59 AM PDT The US Department of Energy has announced that it wants to establish minimum energy efficiency standards for all computers and servers sold in the United States. A new study shows that large server farms can, in fact, cut electricity use and greenhouse gas emissions sharply with off-the-shelf equipment and proven energy management practices.  |
| A warmer planetary haven around cool stars, as ice warms rather than cools Posted: 19 Jul 2013 07:31 AM PDT In a bit of cosmic irony, planets orbiting cooler stars may be more likely to remain ice-free than planets around hotter stars. This is due to the interaction of a star's light with ice and snow on the planet's surface.  |
| New results from T2K conclusively show muon neutrinos transform to electron neutrinos Posted: 19 Jul 2013 07:31 AM PDT Scientists have announced the definitive observation of muon neutrino to electron neutrino transformation. In 2011, the collaboration announced the first indication of this process, a new type of neutrino oscillation, then; now with 3.5 times more data this transformation is firmly established. The probability that random statistical fluctuations alone would produce the observed excess of electron neutrinos is less than one in a trillion.  |
| Desktop printing at the nano level Posted: 19 Jul 2013 05:51 AM PDT A new low-cost, high-resolution tool is primed to revolutionize how nanotechnology is produced from the desktop, according to a new study.  |
| New way to study and improve catalytic reactions Posted: 18 Jul 2013 11:28 AM PDT Scientists have shown a way to precisely design the active elements of a certain class of catalysts, showing which parameters are most critical for improving performance. This highly controlled process could be a new paradigm for fine-tuning catalysts used in everything from making new materials to environmental remediation.  |
