NU Researchers Find Signs Of Extra Dimensions
Boston MA (SPX) Jan 27, 2006Researchers at Northeastern University and the University of California, Irvine say that scientists might soon have evidence for extra dimensions and other exotic predictions of string theory. The Flimsiest Clock In The World 
Tokyo (AFP) Dec 15, 2005A Japanese watchmaker said Thursday it had created the world's first flexible digital clock which is as thin as camera film and can be bent around the curve of a wall. Astronomers Find Most Stable Optical Clock In Heavens 
Fort Davis TX (SPX) Dec 02, 2005After 31 years of tracking the light- output of a burnt-out star from telescopes at McDonald Observatory, astronomer S.O. Kepler of Brazil's Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul and a slew of University of Texas colleagues have found the most stable optical clock in the heavens. |
Chinese Fortune Telling May Be 4,500 Years Old
Beijing (AFP) Nov 23, 2005New evidence suggests fortune telling has a history of at least 4,500 years in China, state media reported Wednesday. What Does 'Almost Nothing' Weigh? FSU Physicist Aims To Find Out 
Tallahassee FL (SPX) Nov 09, 2005If subatomic particles had personalities, neutrinos would be the ultimate wallflowers. One of the most basic particles of matter in the universe, they've been around for 14 billion years and permeate every inch of space, but they're so inconceivably tiny that they've been called "almost nothing" and pass straight through things - for example, the Earth - without a bump. Is There Another World In The Mirror, Case Physicist Asks 
Cleveland OH (SPX) Oct 26, 2005Like Lewis Carroll's Alice, who steps through the looking glass into a strange world, Lawrence Krauss, Case Western Reserve University professor of physics, began his search for extra dimensional worlds with the Twilight Zone episode, "Little Lost Girl." |

University Park PA (SPX) Oct 19, 2005The Penn State Department of Mathematics will host an open house of its extensively renovated McAllister Building, featuring a dedication ceremony for a unique sculpture with deep mathematical significance on 21 October 2005 at the Penn State University Park campus. NIST Atomic Fountain Clock Gets Much Better With Time 
Gaithersburg MD (SPX) Sep 28, 2005The world's best clock, NIST-F1, has been improved over the past few years and now measures time and frequency more than twice as accurately as it did in 1999 when first used as a national standard, physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) report. RAS Statement On The Proposed Abolition Of Leap Seconds 
London, UK (SPX) Sep 22, 2005In November 2005, the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) will be discussing a proposal to abolish leap seconds. |
Tandem Ions May Lead The Way To Better Atomic Clocks
Boulder CO (SPX) Jul 29, 2005Physicists at the Commerce Department's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have used the natural oscillations of two different types of charged atoms, or ions, confined together in a single trap, to produce the "ticks" that may power a future atomic clock. |
