Researchers believe they've found a way of predicting solar flares more than a day before they occur, possibly helping to protect satellites, power grids and astronauts from dangerous radiation.
It's hard to know whether sorghum is getting increasing attention as a possible biofuel source because it makes sense as a solution to our energy and environment challenges, or mostly because it could boost Midwest farm economies.
US researchers are working to perfect a series of simulations capable of accurately rendering the performance of a nuclear weapon in precise molecular detail.
Researchers are developing a new type of computer memory that could be faster than existing commercial memory and use far less power than flash memory devices.
Using carbon nanotubes and DNA, researchers have created a new type of solar cell designed to self-repair like natural photosynthetic systems in plants.
Scientists at Purdue University have developed a metamaterial consisting of fishnet-like film that could theoretically be spun into a working "invisibility" cloak.
