Order hidden in disorder

Partitioning space into cells with optimum geometrical properties is a central challenge in many fields of science and technology. Researchers from several countries have now found that in amorphous, i.e. disordered, systems optimization of the individual cells gradually results in the same structure, although it remains amorphous. The disordered structure quickly converges to hyperuniformity -- a hidden order on large scales. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190403113936.htm

Amplifier for terahertz lattice vibrations in a semiconductor crystal

In analogy to the amplification of light in a laser, vibrations of a semiconductor crystal, so called phonons, were enhanced by interaction with an electron current. Excitation of a metal-semiconductor nanostructure by intense terahertz (THz) pulses results in a ten-fold amplification of longitudinal optical (LO) phonons at a frequency of 9 THz. Coupling such lattice motions to propagating sound waves holds potential for ultrasound imaging with a sub-nanometer spatial resolution. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190403113927.htm

Labeling proteins with ubiquitin paves new road to cell regulation research

Human cells have a sophisticated regulatory system at their disposal: labeling proteins with the small molecule ubiquitin. In a first, scientists have succeeded in marking proteins with ubiquitin in a targeted manner, in test tubes as well as in living cells. The procedure opens the door to exploring the inner workings of this vital regulatory system. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190403113925.htm

A 5,000-year-old barley grain discovered in Finland changes understanding of livelihoods

A 5,000-year-old barley grain discovered in Aland, southern Finland, turns researchers' understanding of ancient Northern livelihoods upside down. New findings reveal that hunter-gatherers took to farming already 5,000 years ago in eastern Sweden, and on the Aland Islands, located on the southwest coast of Finland. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190403113931.htm

Optimizing proton beam therapy with mathematical models

Particle beam therapy, a form of radiotherapy that involves using beams of positively charged particles rather than X-rays, is becoming increasingly popular. Treatment plans need to be optimized so as to maximize irradiation of the tumor while minimizing damage to normal tissue. A new study shows that replacing well-known, simple parameters with more complex ones can enhance the delivery of radiation to the tumor. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190402113215.htm

A universal description of non-equilibrium colloid phase separation

A research team simulated phase separation in colloidal suspensions. By treating colloid particles as undeformable highly viscous liquid droplets suspended in a solvent, they predicted the kinetics of colloid demixing -- separation into a particulate phase - with high efficiency. A microscope study of real colloidal suspensions confirmed the accuracy of the model, which crucially included hydrodynamic (solvent-mediated) interactions between particles. This parameter-free model could be applied to other soft matter, biofluids, and colloid material design. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190402113124.htm

Making lead pipes safe

Lead leaching from pipes into the water supply is a serious public health concern. If water sources or treatments are changed, the new chemistry can cause previously safe water distribution systems to begin releasing lead, as the crisis in Flint, Mich., demonstrated. Today, scientists will describe a rapid, cost-effective method to overcome these problems and make lead pipes safe. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190403080506.htm

Nanomaterials give plants 'super' abilities

Science-fiction writers have long envisioned human-machine hybrids that wield extraordinary powers. However, 'super plants' with integrated nanomaterials may be much closer to reality. Today, scientists report the development of plants that can make nanomaterials called metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and the application of MOFs as coatings on plants. The augmented plants could potentially perform useful new functions. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190403080438.htm
