Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have built a test facility to evaluate and enhance sensors designed to detect buried land mines. The unique automated system measures the response of individual electromagnetic induction sensors or arrays of sensors against land mines buried at many possible angles. http://www.physorg.com/news161440527.html Technology Wed, 13 May 2009 13:36:03 EST news161440527 (PhysOrg.com) -- Mathematicians at the University of St Andrews have made a discovery which could lead to a better understanding of why huge eruptions occur in space. http://www.physorg.com/news158340027.html Other Sciences Tue, 07 Apr 2009 16:21:02 EST news158340027 (PhysOrg.com) -- Physicists have recently discovered that heating one side of a magnetized nickel-iron rod causes electrons to rearrange themselves according to their spins. This so-called "spin Seebeck effect" could lead to batteries that generate magnetic currents, rather than electric currents. A source of magnetic currents could be especially useful for the development of spintronics devices, which use magnetic currents in order to reduce overheating in computer chips, since, unlike electric currents, magnetic currents donīt generate heat. http://www.physorg.com/news142847923.html Physics Fri, 10 Oct 2008 08:58:42 EST news142847923 Global and real-time "space weather" observations of near-Earth space--and the solar storms that can knock out electric power grids--is about to happen for the first time, thanks to funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF). http://www.physorg.com/news135859469.html Space & Earth Mon, 21 Jul 2008 11:44:29 EST news135859469
