| Scientists to Jupiter's moon Io: Your volcanoes are in the wrong place Posted: 04 Apr 2013 02:02 PM PDT Jupiter's moon Io is the most volcanically active world in the Solar System, with hundreds of volcanoes, some erupting lava fountains up to 250 miles high. However, concentrations of volcanic activity are significantly displaced from where they are expected to be based on models that predict how the moon's interior is heated, according to researchers.  |
| Listening to the Big Bang -- in high fidelity Posted: 04 Apr 2013 02:01 PM PDT Physicist have updated the decade-old re-creation of the sound of the Big Bang that started the universe.  |
| 3-D printer can build synthetic tissues Posted: 04 Apr 2013 11:24 AM PDT A custom-built programmable 3-D printer can create materials with several of the properties of living tissues, scientists have demonstrated.  |
| Bronze warship ram reveals secrets Posted: 04 Apr 2013 09:24 AM PDT The Belgammel Ram, a 20kg bronze battering ram artifact dating to between 100BC and 100AD has been extensively tested and analyzed to ascertain how it would have been made in ancient times. The development of new techniques and analyses will assist future research on similar artifacts.  |
| Don't call it vaporware: Scientists use cloud of atoms as optical memory device Posted: 04 Apr 2013 06:28 AM PDT Talk about storing data in the cloud. Scientists have taken this to a whole new level by demonstrating that they can store visual images within quite an ethereal memory device -- a thin vapor of rubidium atoms. The effort may prove helpful in creating memory for quantum computers.  |
| Hallucinations of musical notation Posted: 04 Apr 2013 04:30 AM PDT A physician and neurologist has outlined case studies of hallucinations of musical notation, and commented on the neural basis of such hallucinations.  |
| One extinct turtle less: Turtle species in the Seychelles never existed Posted: 04 Apr 2013 04:29 AM PDT The turtle species Pelusios seychellensis regarded hitherto as extinct never existed. Scientists discovered this based on genetic evidence.  |
