Calculations at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics and the Vienna University of Technology (Institute for Theoretical Physics) have now shown that high-energy heavy ion collisions at large particle accelerators are suitable as light sources for the desired single and double pulses. This is due to the remarkable properties of quark-gluon plasmas.
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the Nobel Prize 2009 in Physics for two scientific achievements that have helped to shape the foundations of today's networked societies. It has been awarded...
A new ceramic material described in this week’s issue of the journal Science could help expand the applications for solid oxide fuel cells – devices that generate electricity directly from a wide range of liquid or gaseous fuels without the need to separate hydrogen.
Mercury pollution is a persistent problem in the environment. Human activity has lead to increasingly large accumulations of the toxic chemical, especially in waterways, where fish and shellfish tend to act as sponges fo...
The Information Storage Consortium has awarded its 2009 Technical Achievement Award to Jeffrey Pyun, UA assistant professor of chemistry, for pioneering research that improves materials for magnetic tape used for long-term archival storage.
Researchers have overcome a major obstacle in efforts to use tiny structures called carbon nanotubes to create a new class of electronics that would be faster and smaller than conventional silicon-based transistors.
Microscopic carbon nanotubes 100,000 times thinner than a human hair may have the potential to transport electricity faster and over greater distances with minimal loss of energy, according to new research that will be p...
University of Michigan physicists have created the first atomic-scale maps of quantum dots, a major step toward the goal of producing "designer dots" that can be tailored for specific applications.
Researchers at the University of Arkansas and University of California-Los Angeles have discovered a new kind of quantum state of material at the nanoscale level that appears at low temperatures.
Research professor S...
