U.S. engineers at Duke University have developed a new type of metamaterial that allows them to control light in a similar way that we control…
Scientists from Japan and Europe have used a CERN experiment to measure the mass of the antiproton to an accuracy of about one part in…
The Higgs boson is being diligently tracked down at the European particle physics laboratory called the Large Hadron Collider. On Friday, the LHC researchers announced…
A U.S. company uses three-dimensional printing to create successive layers of materials. This additive manufacturing technology could be considered a very rudimentary form of the…
For the first time, Australian researchers have been able to control the generation of voltage and current within piezoelectric thin films by applying pressure to…
Scientists from the Massachusetts General Hospital have developed the first laser that works from a living cell emitting green laser light. And, the cell lived…
Scientists working with the ALPHA Experiment at CERN have accomplished what no one else has been able to do before: trap antimatter (specifically, anti-hydrogen) for…
After a ten-year study of the not-quite-so-simple electron, scientists at Imperial College London stated that the electron's shape is almost a perfect sphere.
A University of Missouri professor of engineering has developed a solar panel that collects up to 95% of the sunlight that falls on it. Traditional…
If Google gets its way, the state of Nevada will allow self-driving cars, or autonomous automobiles, on its public roads, possibly by June 2011.
