It's been 37 years since Leon Chua hypothesised the existence of the memristor - the 'missing' basic electronic circuit element to complement the capacitor, resistor and inductor - but Hewlett-Packard scientists have finally made one.

Of course electrons have been zipping around before we knew about them. However, 111 years ago, Joseph John Thomson first announced that he had discovered the existence of electrons, which he named "corpuscles,” or small bodies.

U.S. researchers (and, no doubt, baseball fanatics) find that the trajectories of baseballs that are popped up almost vertically are complicated due to the collision of the ball with the bat and the air resistance around the ball itself in flight.

New non-volatile memory technologies pop up from time to time, but they don't always make a lasting impression. Remember bubble memory? What about FRAM? Now IBM reckons its 'racetrack' memory could deliver the performance and reliability of flash memory with the low cost and high capacity of hard drives.
