STEREO, SOHO Spacecraft Catch Comet Diving Into Sun
Berkeley CA (SPX) May 26, 2010
Solar physicists at the University of California, Berkeley, have tracked a comet through the low solar atmosphere, deeper into the sun than ever before, before it presumably evaporated in the 100,000-degree heat.
Using instruments aboard NASA's twin STEREO spacecraft, four post-doctoral fellows at UC Berkeley's Space Sciences Laboratory were able to track the comet as it approached the sun ... more

New Nanoscale Electrical Phenomenon Discovered
Ann Arbor MI (SPX) May 20, 2010
At the scale of the very small, physics can get peculiar. A University of Michigan biomedical engineering professor has discovered a new instance of such a nanoscale phenomenon-one that could lead to faster, less expensive portable diagnostic devices and push back frontiers in building micro-mechanical and "lab on a chip" devices.
In our macroscale world, materials called conductors effect ... more
