The Solar System is not round, but an egg shape with its bottom edge squashed inward, according to data beamed back from a three decade old space probe.
A much greater proportion of the world's wildlife faces extinction than scientists had thought, as new evidence suggests the risks are being underestimated by as much as 100-fold.
Hard evidence that life may have started on Earth even more quickly than scientists had thought has come from a study of diamonds from the dawn of geological time.
Eleanor Roosevelt once said "Do one thing everyday that scares you," but I wonder how often she went unescorted to parties full of strangers. I intellectually grasp that this is not exactly swimming with the sharks, but I think I
We investigate the influence of ram pressure on the star-formation rate and the distribution of gas and stellar matter in interacting model galaxies in clusters.
We present three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of superbubbles, to study the importance of MHD effects in the interpretation of images from recent surveys of the Galactic plane.
ONE OF Western Europe's most impressive prehistoric sites and the third largest stone circle in the British Isles-Orkney's Ring of Brodgar-is the subject of a major archaeological project to start next week. A month-long programme will be undertaken by a
Since ages it was held that full time education is the best and the learning experiences gained in educational institutes cannot be compensated by private tuition and study. However, with the passage of times and introduction of modern technology in
Earning a degree can be one of the most important and the biggest investments in your life. Choose the best online school, college and university to get your online degree in any vocational discipline in which you want to establish
Online education has been on the rise since the last couple of years and earning online degrees has become a norm now a days. According to an estimate, in the current times, about 850,000 students are enrolled in online degree
Possibly coming soon to a nation near you, the latest black market expensive product, demanded by the addicted users, who can't do with out it, and banned by the authorities-the incandescent light bulb.
I propose an explanation to the finding that star formation and visible filaments strong in Halpha emission in cooling flow clusters occur only if the minimum specific entropy and the radiative cooling time of the intracluster medium (ICM), are below
In this paper, extending the investigation developed in an earlier paper (Cremaschini et al., 2008), we pose the problem of the kinetic description of gravitational Hall-MHD equilibria which may arise in accretion disks (AD) plasmas close to compact objects.
Previous analyses of magnetospheric accretion and outflow in classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs), within the context of both the X-wind model and other theoretical scenarios, have assumed a dipolar geometry for the stellar magnetic field if it were not perturbed
To evaluate the effect of turbulent heating in the thermal balance of interstellar clouds, we develop an extension of the log-Poisson intermittency model to supersonic turbulence.
Brain research in the past few years has discovered that our brain can actually produce new brain cells, called 'Neurons' and new neuronal connections. This process is called 'Neuroplasticity' which can break down to mean in layman's terms, that brain's...
