| RAMBO a small but powerful magnet: System allows high-magnetic-field experiments on a tabletop Posted: 06 Jan 2014 01:00 PM PST Researchers have pioneered a tabletop magnetic pulse generator that allows researchers to collect real-time, high-resolution data in a system that couples high magnetic fields and low temperature with direct optical access to the magnet's core.  |
| Newfound planet is Earth-mass but gassy Posted: 06 Jan 2014 01:00 PM PST An international team of astronomers has discovered the first Earth-mass planet that transits, or crosses in front of, its host star. KOI-314c is the lightest planet to have both its mass and physical size measured. Surprisingly, although the planet weighs the same as Earth, it is 60 percent larger in diameter, meaning that it must have a very thick, gaseous atmosphere.  |
| Supernova's super dust factory imaged with ALMA Posted: 06 Jan 2014 07:34 AM PST Striking new observations capture, for the first time, the remains of a recent supernova brimming with freshly formed dust. If enough of this dust makes the perilous transition into interstellar space, it could explain how many galaxies acquired their dusty, dusky appearance.  |
| Newly discovered three-star system could test Einstein's theory of General Relativity Posted: 06 Jan 2014 06:47 AM PST A newly discovered system of two white dwarf stars and a superdense pulsar -- all packed within a space smaller than the Earth's orbit around the sun -- is enabling astronomers to probe a range of cosmic mysteries, including the very nature of gravity itself.  |
| Preventing air accidents: New satellite-based system Posted: 06 Jan 2014 06:44 AM PST A Norwegian, satellite-based system aims to ensure that helicopters and light aircraft are prevented from colliding with power lines and other obstacles.  |
| Online colorectal cancer risk calculator Posted: 03 Jan 2014 05:45 PM PST CRC-PRO, or Colorectal Cancer Predicted Risk Online, is designed to help both patients and physicians determine when screening for colorectal cancer is appropriate. Current guidelines recommend patients are screened at the age of 50. However, with this new tool, physicians will be better able to identify who is truly at risk and when screenings for patients are necessary.  |
| New innovation enhances information storage in electronic, ushers in new era of computing Posted: 30 Dec 2013 07:13 AM PST A team of researchers has developed a new Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory (MRAM) technology that will boost information storage in electronic systems. The innovative technology will drastically increase storage space and enhance memory which will ensure that fresh data stays intact, even in the case of a power failure. The team has already filed a US provisional patent for their technology.  |
