| Key processes of photosynthesis simulated on quantum level Posted: 08 Nov 2013 09:47 AM PST Physicists have simulated key processes of photosynthesis on a quantum level with high spatial and temporal resolution. In their experiment with Rydberg atoms scientists discovered new properties of energy transport. This work is an important step towards answering the question of how quantum physics can contribute to the efficiency of energy conversion in synthetic systems, for example in photovoltaics.  |
| A new scorpion species from ancient Lycia Posted: 08 Nov 2013 08:22 AM PST Scientists have discovered and described a new species of scorpion, Euscorpius lycius, coming from the area of ancient Lycia, nowadays the regions of the Mugla and Antalya Provinces in Southwestern Turkey. With the new discovery, the scorpions from this genus found in the country go up to a total of five known species.  |
| Tricking algae's biological clock boosts production of drugs, biofuels Posted: 07 Nov 2013 09:27 AM PST Tricking algae's biological clock to remain in its daytime setting can dramatically boost the amount of commercially valuable compounds that these simple marine plants can produce when they are grown in constant light.  |
