Setback for safe storage of nuclear waste.
Jan 16, 2007 (New Scientist - ABIX via COMTEX) -- A new study shows that zircon is not as effective in trapping nuclear waste as previously believed. Until now, scientists thought zircon could hold nuclear waste within its crystalline structures for at least 241,000 years. ...
Mind-reading machines.(NEWS WATCH)(exhibition)(Brief article)
Visitors to the Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition are being invited to take part in research with 'emotionally aware' computers. Developed by scientists at the University of Cambridge, England, the computer program is connected to a camera, and locates and tracks 24 facial 'feature points' such...
Towards immortality.
Byline: Graham Lawton May 17, 2006 (New Scientist - ABIX via COMTEX) -- Some scientists believe that science is on the verge of delivering immortality, or something close to it. Theoretical gerontologist Aubrey de Grey from Cambridge University believes that repairing cellular and...
Perovskite film provides exceptional cooling property.(COATINGS)
Thin films made from lead zirconate titanate PZT could lead to a new type of refrigeration, according to recent research work carried out by scientists in the UK. Lead researcher Dr Alex Mischenko, of the University of Cambridge, says that the films--which cool when...
Where the flying lizards got their lift.
Byline: Paul Marks Oct 20, 2005 (New Scientist - ABIX via COMTEX) -- British scientists have discovered how pterosaurs were able to generate the lift they needed to...

THE DAWN OF the twenty-first century has witnessed mounting alarm not only over humanity's unsustainable use of the marine environment in the present, but also its "over fishing" of large marine vertebrates in the past.1 The belated recognition of the latter has exacerbated the problem of "shifting baselines" for contemporary...
Super Superconductors Using Nanotechnology.
University of California scientists working at Los Alamos National Laboratory with a researcher from the University of Cambridge have demonstrated a simple and industrially scaleable method for improving the current densities of superconducting coated conductors in magnetic field environments. The discovery has the potential to increase the already impressive carrying...
