How to freeze heat conduction

The thermoelectric effect can turn waste heat into electrical energy. To make use of it, special materials with unusual properties are required. A remarkable effect has now been demonstrated, which can explain the particularly low thermal conductivity of clathrates, making them perfectly suitable for thermoelectricity. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190221111657.htm

AI may be better for detecting radar signals, facilitating spectrum sharing

Researchers demonstrate that deep learning algorithms -- a form of artificial intelligence -- are significantly better than a commonly used method for detecting when offshore radars are operating, which can potentially improve certain spectrum-sharing operations. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190221110531.htm

Study examines individuals' willingness to use artificial intelligence in career choices

Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing the way we do business, and it can potentially allow firms to improve their decision making, given that individuals are willing to adopt algorithms in decision-making contexts. A new Managerial and Decision Economics study indicates that cognitive perceptions play an important role on such willingness. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190221110528.htm

A scientific method for perfect cheese fondue

Cheese fondue is an icon of Swiss cuisine and a dinner party staple. While it may seem like a simple dish, getting the texture right can be a challenge for optimal mouthfeel, dipping and flavor release. This requires the perfect balance of cheese, wine and starch. Now, researchers reveal how to use these key ingredients to produce deliciously melted fondue. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190220103426.htm

Correlated nucleons may solve 35-year-old mystery

A careful re-analysis of data taken as revealed a possible link between correlated protons and neutrons in the nucleus and a 35-year-old mystery. The data have led to the extraction of a universal function that describes the EMC Effect, the once-shocking discovery that quarks inside nuclei have lower average momenta than predicted, and supports an explanation for the effect. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190220133621.htm

Squid could provide an eco-friendly alternative to plastics

The remarkable properties of a recently-discovered squid protein could revolutionize materials in a way that would be unattainable with conventional plastic. Originating in the ringed teeth of a squid's predatory arms, this protein can be processed into fibers and films with applications ranging from health-monitoring 'smart' clothes to self-healing recyclable fabrics that reduce microplastic pollution. Materials made from this protein are eco-friendly and biodegradable, with sustainable large-scale production achieved using laboratory culture methods. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190221083430.htm

Young bone marrow rejuvenates aging mouse brains

A new study has found that transplanting the bone marrow of young laboratory mice into old mice prevented cognitive decline in the old mice, preserving their memory and learning abilities. The findings support an emerging model that attributes cognitive decline, in part, to aging of blood cells, which are produced in bone marrow. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190220103341.htm

Foreign bees monopolize prize resources in biodiversity hotspot

New research revealed that foreign honey bees often account for more than 90 percent of pollinators observed visiting flowers in San Diego, considered a global biodiversity hotspot. The non-native bees have established robust feral populations and currently make up 75 percent of the region's observed pollinators. Their monopoly over the most abundantly blooming plant species may strongly affect the ecology and evolution of species that are foundational to the stability of the region's plant-pollinator interactions. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190220103339.htm

Gene therapy durably reverses congenital deafness in mice

Scientists have managed to restore hearing in an adult mouse model of DFNB9 deafness -- a hearing disorder that represents one of the most frequent cases of congenital genetic deafness. Individuals with DFNB9 deafness are profoundly deaf as they are deficient in the gene coding for otoferlin, a protein which is essential for transmitting sound information at the auditory sensory cell synapses. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190219111643.htm

Water is more homogeneous than expected

In order to explain the known anomalies in water, some researchers assume that water consists of a mixture of two phases even under ambient conditions. However, new X-ray spectroscopic analyses show that this is not the case. At room temperature and normal pressure, the water molecules form a fluctuating network with an average of 1.74 ± 2.1 percent donor and acceptor hydrogen bridge bonds per molecule each, allowing tetrahedral coordination between close neighbors. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190220103439.htm

Superconduction: Why does it have to be so cold?

Powering a pacemaker with a patient's heartbeat

Implantable pacemakers have without doubt altered modern medicine, saving countless lives by regulating heart rhythm. But they have one serious shortcoming: Their batteries last only five to 12 years, at which point they have to be replaced surgically. Now, researchers have surmounted this issue by designing a pacemaker powered by the energy of heartbeats. The device was successfully tested in pigs, which have a similar physiology to humans. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190220082602.htm

'Butterfly-shaped' palladium subnano cluster built in 3-D

Scientists have produced a 3-D cluster molecule based on palladium. First, they created a 'butterfly-shaped' Pd4 framework, using an organosilicon compounds bearing the aromatic substitutents as both template and support for the palladium atoms. Then, using another template, they connected two butterfly-shaped Pd4 skeleton, via chlorine, into a Pd6 cluster based on edge-sharing tetrahedra. This strategy using organosilicons to design customized subnano-architectures may enable design of a range of functional materials and catalysts. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/02/190220103454.htm
