Vaccines for HIV: A new design strategy
HIV has eluded vaccine-makers for thirty years, in part due to the virus' extreme ability to mutate. Physical scientists and clinical virologists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Ragon Institute ...

Discovery could challenge established theory of the nucleus
(PhysOrg.com) -- By analyzing data from experiments performed earlier this decade at the Oak Ridge Electron Linear Accelerator (ORELA), physicists have made observations that seem to conflict with the widely accepted theory ...
Surprising nucleon behavior
Data from DOE's Oak Ridge National Laboratory on neutron interactions with isotopes of platinum contradict a basic assumption underpinning random matrix theory, nuclear physics models and quantum chaos.

A living aortic valve replacement leads to better survival and quality of life than provided by a dead donor
When a patient needs their aortic valve replacing, using the valve in their own pulmonary artery for the replacement leads to better survival and quality of life than if the aortic valve from a dead donor is used. This is ...

Physicists Transmit Light through Opaque Materials
No matter how thick an opaque "scattering material" is, physicists have shown how to weave light through tiny open channels in the material, so that the light passes through on the other side.
Hunting the elusive L-function
(PhysOrg.com) -- There was a lot of excitement last month about ‘L-functions’. A PhD student in the Department of Mathematics, University of Bristol, Ce Bian, in collaboration with his supervisor, Dr Andrew ...
