| Unusual greenhouse gases may have raised ancient Martian temperature Posted: 24 Nov 2013 05:05 PM PST Much like the Grand Canyon, Nanedi Valles snakes across the Martian surface suggesting that liquid water once crossed the landscape, according to a team of researchers who believe that molecular hydrogen made it warm enough for water to flow.  |
| How losing information can benefit quantum computing Posted: 24 Nov 2013 05:05 PM PST Suggesting that quantum computers might benefit from losing some data, physicists have now entangled -- linked the quantum properties of -- two ions by leaking judiciously chosen information to the environment.  |
| A new, flying jellyfish-like machine Posted: 24 Nov 2013 05:00 PM PST Up, up in the sky: It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a . . . jellyfish? That's what researchers have built -- a small vehicle whose flying motion resembles the movements of those boneless, pulsating, water-dwelling creatures. The work demonstrates a new method of flight that could transport miniaturized future robots for surveillance, search-and-rescue, and monitoring of the atmosphere and traffic.  |
| Posted: 24 Nov 2013 06:35 AM PST An old, hilarious if somewhat juvenile party trick involves covertly tapping the top of someone's newly opened beer bottle and standing back as the suds foam out onto the floor. Now researchers have produced new insight into the science behind the foaming, exploring the phenomenon of cavitation.  |
| Fun at work promotes employee retention but may hurt productivity Posted: 21 Nov 2013 10:56 AM PST Within the hospitality industry, manager support for fun is instrumental in reducing employee turnover, particularly for younger employees, according to a team of researchers. However, manager support for fun also reduces employee productivity, which can negatively impact sales performance.  |
| Different cellular mechanisms behind regenerated body parts Posted: 21 Nov 2013 09:59 AM PST Scientists have discovered that two separate species of salamander differ in the way their muscles grow back in lost body parts. Their findings on the species-specific solutions demonstrate there is more than one mechanism of tissue regeneration.  |
