Cutting-edge research into cool plasma brings sci-fi healing closer

From Star Trek to Wolverine and Dune, instant wound healing has been a show-stealer in many science-fiction and fantasy films. Scientists have now used a simulation of a new experimental technique to determine accurate electron cross-sections in liquid using a micro-jet of water just 15 micrometres in diameter.

A look into the magnetic future

Scientists have observed for the first time how tiny magnets in a special layout align themselves solely as a result of temperature changes. This view into processes that take place within so-called artificial spin ice could play an important role in the development of novel high-performance computers.

The platinum riddle (w/video)

Platinum is an important catalyst. But up until now, nobody know how exactly single platinum atoms behave during catalysis. Scientists could now solve the riddle, why some chemical reactions take place at temperatures at which this should not even be possible.
