Studying the Signals in the Body that Control the Generation of Blood Vessels

Researchers at Uppsala University have developed a new tool that makes it possible to study the signals in the body that control the generation of blood vessels. The researchers' findings, published in the new issue of Lab on a Chip, enable scientists to determine what signals in the body attract or repel blood vessels, knowledge that is extremely interesting in tumor research.

Scientists Succeeded in Precisely Measuring Size of a One-Neutron Halo with Lasers

Atomic nuclei are normally compact structures defined by a sharp border. About twenty-five years ago, it was discovered at the University of California in Berkeley that there are exceptions to this picture: Certain exotic atomic nuclei contain particles that shear off from the central core and create a cloud, which surrounds the central core like a 'heiligenschein' or halo.

Scientists Discover Magnetic Nanoparticles that Shrink When Heated

Materials typically expand when they are heated, which is why the concrete slabs in sidewalks can buckle on a hot day. Now, Kenichi Kato of the RIKEN SPring-8 Center in Harima and colleagues at Saga University and Japan's National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology have identified several materials that defy this common rule of thumb.
