Novel Molecular Method to Diagnose Main Causes of Digestive Infections
Link between quantum physics and game theory found
Dr Brunner said: "Once in a while, connections are established between topics which seem, on the face of it, to have nothing in common. Such new links have potential to trigger significant progress and open entirely new avenues for research."
Disks Don't Need Planets to Make Patterns

Debris disks around stars naturally form complex structures without the presence of a planet. This image shows the dust...
NGC 2392: A Beautiful End to a Star's Life

NGC 2392 is a planetary nebula, a phase that results when a star like the sun becomes a red giant and sheds its outer...
ESO’s Very Large Telescope probes growth of galaxies

Astronomers using ESO’s Very Large Telescope have spotted a distant galaxy hungrily snacking on nearby gas. Gas is seen to...
