| Improved synchronicity: Preventive care for the power grid Posted: 02 Mar 2013 09:54 AM PST As the U.S. national power-grid network becomes larger and more complex, achieving reliability across the network is increasingly difficult. Now scientists have identified conditions and properties that power companies can consider using to keep power generators in the desired synchronized state. The design could help reduce both the frequency of blackouts and the cost of electricity as well as offer an improved plan for handling the intermittent power sources of renewable energy, which can destabilize the network.  |
| Misplaced molecules: New insights into the causes of dementia Posted: 02 Mar 2013 09:54 AM PST Researchers have succeeded in gaining new insights into the causes of certain movement disorders and forms of dementia. Scientists were able to reproduce disease symptoms typical of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia in zebrafish.  |
| Short algorithm, long-range consequences Posted: 02 Mar 2013 09:54 AM PST A new technique for solving 'graph Laplacians' is drastically simpler than its predecessors, with implications for a huge range of practical problems.  |
