Nanoscale magnetic media diagnostics by rippling spin waves

Posted: 03 Apr 2012 02:22 PM PDT

A new tool can help magnetic memory device designers detect defects in magnetic structures as small as a tenth of a micrometer even if the region in question is buried inside a multilayer electronic device.

Advanced power-grid research finds low-cost, low-carbon future in Western U.S.

Posted: 03 Apr 2012 12:36 PM PDT

The least expensive way for the Western US to reduce greenhouse gas emissions enough to help prevent the worst consequences of global warming is to replace coal with renewable and other sources of energy that may include nuclear power, according to a new study.

New isotope measurement could alter history of early solar system

The early days of our solar system might look quite different than previously thought, according to new research. The study used more sensitive instruments to find a different half-life for samarium, one of the isotopes used to chart the evolution of the solar system.

Quantum information motion control is now improved

Posted: 03 Apr 2012 08:18 AM PDT

Physicists have recently devised a new method for handling the effect of the interplay between vibrations and electrons on electronic transport. This study could have implications for quantum computers due to improvements in the transport of discrete amounts of information, known as qubits, that are encoded in electrons.
