Researchers at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory at Florida State University have discovered that the new iron based family of superconducting material kept superconducting all the way up to 45 tesla. 45 Tesla is the most powerful magnet sustained field in the world. The researchers did not find the upper limit for magnetic field …
. In an advance online edition of Nature Medicine, the scientists explain how the protein, FOX03a, shields against viral attacks and how the discovery will help in the development of a HIV vaccine. This research could also advance therapies for other viral diseases. Given their perfect resistance to HIV infection, elite controllers represent the ideal …

NASA Goddard Space Flight Center has made a major step forward in reducing the cost of manufacturing single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Most manufacturing methods, which use a metal catalyst to form the tubes, have several drawbacks that have impeded development of SWCNTs’ numerous applications. NASA researchers have discovered a simple, safe, and inexpensive method to …
