(Â鶹ÒùÔºOrg.com) -- Using large-scale computer simulations, researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have identified the most important factors affecting how molecules move through the crowded environment inside living ...
(Â鶹ÒùÔºOrg.com) -- "Brownian motion is a very old concept," Klaus Kroy tells Â鶹ÒùÔºOrg.com. "The laws explaining it were formulated more than a century ago by Albert Einstein. However, we are finding some interesting divergences ...
In the war against infectious disease, identifying the culprit is half the battle. Now, research professor Shaopeng Wang and his colleagues from the Biodesign Institute at Arizona State University, describe a new method for ...
(Â鶹ÒùÔºOrg.com) -- The world's oceans, we know, are constantly shaken and stirred by the winds and the tides and other physical forces of nature. But what about fish and other swimming marine life? Do they stir the ocean, too?
A century after Albert Einstein said we would never be able to observe the instantaneous velocity of tiny particles as they randomly shake and shimmy, so called Brownian motion, physicist Mark Raizen and his group have done ...
(Â鶹ÒùÔºOrg.com) -- The field of climate science is nothing if not complex, where a host of variables interact with each other in intricate ways to produce various changes. Just like any other area of science, climate science ...
(Â鶹ÒùÔºOrg.com) -- For the first time, researchers have been able to confine and study an individual protein, one that plays a key role in photosynthesis, without having to pin it down so tightly as to alter its fundamental ...
A team of physicists headed by Christian Roos and Rainer Blatt from the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information of the Austrian Academy of Sciences realize a quantum walk in a quantum system with up to 23 steps. ...
(Â鶹ÒùÔºOrg.com) -- Acting as a microscope for sound, a new device called a micro-ear could make objects on the micro-scale audible. The device could enable scientists to listen to the sounds that cells and bacteria make as ...
(Â鶹ÒùÔºOrg.com) -- To make thin films for semiconductors in electronic devices, layers of atoms must be grown in neat, crystalline sheets. But while some materials grow smooth crystals, others tend to develop bumps and defects ...
