Meteoroid strikes eject precious water from moon

Streams of meteoroids striking the Moon infuse the thin lunar atmosphere with a short-lived water vapor, according to researchers using data from NASA's LADEE spacecraft. The findings will help scientists understand the history of lunar water. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190415122315.htm

The history of humanity in your face

The face you see in the mirror is the result of millions of years of evolution and reflects the most distinctive features that we use to identify and recognize each other, molded by our need to eat, breath, see, and communicate. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190415113813.htm

Light from exotic particle states

In ultra thin materials, exotic bound states of particles can be created which are then converted into light. Scientists at TU Wien (Vienna) have now succeeded in using this effect to create a novel kind of light-emitting diode. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190415105033.htm

New theory derived from classical physics predicts how economies respond to major disturbances

Understanding economies in times of crises? Modern macroeconomics failed so far. Researchers are now proposing a novel method that makes the effects of shocks on out-of-equilibrium economies computable for the first time. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190415105010.htm

Power to the people: How everyday acts of defiance can shape and change markets

Subtle, hidden and everyday acts of resistance and defiance by people with limited resources could have an impact on markets in societies where state and religion is all-powerful. These are the key findings of a new study which shows consumers and individuals can help markets to evolve in societies where they cannot freely and openly participate in them. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190415105007.htm

Quantum simulation more stable than expected

A localization phenomenon boosts the accuracy of solving quantum many-body problems with quantum computers which are otherwise challenging for conventional computers. This brings such digital quantum simulation within reach on quantum devices available today. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190412150625.htm

ISS Daily Summary Report – 4/11/2019

Airway Monitoring: The crew performed the Airway Monitoring US Airlock Session consisting of two different protocols, which are performed at both ambient, and reduced pressure (10.2 psi or 700 mbar) in the US airlock. These protocols are the low Nitric Oxide (NO) protocol which determines how much NO is exhaled with the respiration, and the … from ISS On-Orbit Status Report https://blogs.nasa.gov/stationreport/2019/04/11/iss-daily-summary-report-4112019/

'Snowball chamber' helps researchers use supercooled water to search for dark matter

After watching YouTube videos of people supercooling water in a bottle and then triggering it to freeze by banging it, something about this concept solidified for a researcher, especially when he saw it again during the Disney movie 'Frozen.' He has now described how this inspired him to explore whether a subatomic particle like dark matter can trigger the freezing of supercooled water. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190415082008.htm

Travel through wormholes is possible, but slow

A physicist has shown that wormholes can exist: tunnels in curved space-time, connecting two distant places, through which travel is possible. But don't pack your bags for a trip to other side of the galaxy yet; although it's theoretically possible, it's not useful for humans to travel through, said the author of the study. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190415090853.htm

Characterization of 'hidden' dioxins from informal e-waste processing

The composition of mixed brominated/chlorinated dibenzofurans (PXDFs) and diphenyl ethers in soils from an e-waste site in Ghana suggests a formation of PXDFs through condensation of the flame retardant PBDEs and subsequent bromine-to-chlorine exchange. PXDFs were substantial contributors of toxic equivalents among dioxins from e-waste burning. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190414111503.htm

Unexpected properties uncovered in recently discovered superconductor

Researchers have found that crystals of a recently discovered superconducting material, a layered bismuth chalcogenide with a four-fold symmetric structure, shows only two-fold symmetry in its superconductivity. The origin of superconductivity in these structures is not yet well understood; this finding suggests a connection with an enigmatic class of materials known as nematic superconductors and the extraordinary mechanisms by which superconductivity can emerge at easier-to-reach temperatures. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190414111437.htm

Tiny light-up barcodes identify molecules by their twinkling

An imaging technique could make it possible to peer inside cells and watch dozens of different molecules at once -- by labeling them with short strands of light-up DNA that blink on and off with their own unique rhythm. Though they're all the same color, the technique makes it possible to distinguish as many as 56 types by their twinkling, more cheaply than traditional methods and without fading over time. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/04/190412150630.htm

Artificial intelligence singles out neurons faster than a human can
