Oil from BP spill traveled 500 kilometers: scientistsMiami (AFP) Oct 1, 2010 Traces of oil from a ruptured BP well in the Gulf of Mexico have been found at a depth of 1,000 meters (3,200 feet) and up to 500 kilometers (300 miles) from the spill site, according to a new analysis. A team of scientists aboard the Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise reported results Thursday from 10 days of sampling around areas affected by the worst oil spill in history. "From the measurements we've taken, we see clear signs of oxygen deficiency on a large transect starting at the Macondo wellhe ... read more |

One-Dimensional Window On Superconductivity And MagnetismHouston TX (SPX) Sep 30, 2010 A Rice University-led team of physicists is reporting the first success in a three-year effort to build a precision simulator for superconductors using a grid of intersecting laser beams and ultracold atomic gas. The research appears this week in the journal Nature. Using lithium atoms cooled to within a few billionths of a degree of absolute zero and loaded into optical tubes, the researchers created a precise analog of a one-dimensional superconducting wire. Because the atoms in the experi ... read more |
