Sheets of silk dipped in chlorine have been found to quickly kill off almost all bacteria, including the armoured spores…
A new type of solar cell could be developed based on microscopic “fractal trees” grown from silver. The fractal silver structures…
There is much concern that Iran is in the process of developing nuclear weapons. Such a development, we’re told, could induce Israel to launch a unilateral military strike with all types of unpredictable…
You know the feeling: your heart’s beating faster, your pupils dilate, your palms are sweaty, and you’ve got a belly-full of butterflies. You’re in love and, yes, you’re “all shook up”. The euphoria of…
The Federal Department of Education says it advised the Australian Academy of Science’s authors of a break in the series of student-numbers when it supplied the data. The lead author, Professor Denis Goodrum…
As the great spectre of climate change continues to loom large over the future, the search for viable, renewable energy sources is becoming ever more important. Solar power has long been seen as a vital…
Concrete infrastructure in urban environments appears to be altering the chemistry of rainwater flowing into our urban streams…
A recent study may have resolved the debate over when oxygen began to be produced on Earth and how long it then took for…
One of the best tricks of making a horror movie is not to show too much, allowing the imagination to create the monster. We can’t see molecules, which is what makes them scary. We fill this vacuum with…
Two Australian chemists have won the 2011 Prime Minister’s Prize for Science for the invention of “smart plastic” technology, a technique that revolutionised the way paints, contact lenses, solar cells…
Project: Develop hydrogen-based sustainable energy Cost: $20 million Timeframe: Seven years Finding real green energy is a vital area of research. Is there an energy that meets the needs of its users…
We know a lot about how humans evolved. But when it comes to our planet, we’re on shakier ground. Inert (nonreactive) gases, such as helium, neon and argon, trapped inside the mantle (Earth’s thickest…
Welcome back to If I had a blank cheque I’d …_ our series in which leading researchers reveal what they could do in their discipline if money were no object._ Today we hear from Brynn Hibbert, Professor…
“Would you like the generic brand of that medicine?” It’s a question you’ve probably been asked, or at least heard, when picking up a prescription at your local pharmacy. It’s likely you were told the…
Surprisingly, a single atom of gold is actually stronger than a many-atom piece of gold. The strength of gold has been found…
The focused energy surge that comes from collapsing bubbles has provided scientists with a clean way to drive not only chemical…
A new synthetic sealant will make it easier for surgeons to seal internal and external incisions, while also significantly…
