Researchers Demonstrate `Quantum Data Buffering` Scheme (PhysOrg.com) -- Pushing the envelope of Albert Einstein's 'spooky action at a distance,' known as entanglement, researchers at the Joint Quantum Institute (JQI) of the Commerce Department's National Institute of Standards and Technology and the University of Maryland have demonstrated a 'quantum buffer,' a technique that could be used to control the data flow inside a quantum computer. Quantum computers could potentially speed up or expand present capabilities in decrypting data, searching large databases, and other tasks. The new research is published in the Feb. 12 issue of the journal Nature. Physorg.comNovel quantum effect directly observed and explained: Physicists observe electrons in quantum spin Hall state An international research team has succeeded in gaining an in-depth insight into an unusual phenomenon, as reported in the current edition of journal 'Science'. The researchers succeeded for the first time in directly measuring the spin of electrons in a material that exhibits the quantum spin Hall effect, which was theoretically predicted in 2004 and first observed in 2007. Astonishingly, the spin currents flow without any external stimulus as a result of the internal structure of the material. The flow of information is loss-free, even for slight irregularities. This paves the way towards fault-tolerant quantum computers and towards a source of spin currents. Physorg.comHerpes virus: To vaccinate or not to vaccinate Dr. Marcia Blackman and her research team at the Trudeau Institute have followed up on an intriguing report published in the journal Nature in May 2007 by Dr. Herbert Virgin, et al., showing that mice persistently infected with certain forms of herpesvirus, which can establish lifelong latent infections, are resistant to infection with bacterial pathogens. Biologynews.netSmart Phones: Touch Screens Redefine the Market In 2007, when Apple released the iPhone, its big touch screen made it an instant hit. The phone operated exclusively on AT&T’s wireless network in the U.S., and other network providers implored their phone makers to quickly devise competitors. The scramble was on, and the touch-screen alternatives blossomed during the 2008 holiday season. Suddenly available were Research in Motion’s Blackberry Storm, which operates over Verizon’s network, HTC’s G1 (T-Mobile), the Samsung Instinct (Sprint), and others--most retailing for about $200.Each of these offerings can be called a smart phone, which generally means the technology is robust enough to provide a range of services beyond cell phone calls and text messaging and often means the operating system is open to third-party software developers seeking to create more novel features. The smart phones increasingly communicate over so-called 3G cellular networks that allow faster Web browsing and sending and receiving Scientific AmericanResearch Finds Internal Choices Are Weaker Than Those Dictated By The Outside World The underlying sense of being in control of our own actions is challenged by new research from UCL (University College London) which demonstrates that the choices we make internally are weak and easily overridden compared to when we are told which choice to make. The research, which is published in Cerebral Cortex, is one of the first neuroscientific studies to look at changing one's mind in situations where the initial decision was one's own 'free choice'. Medicalnewstoday.comFracture Healing Accelerated By Cell Injections Long bone fractures heal faster after injections of bone-building cells. Research published in the open access journal BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders has shown that osteoblast cells cultured from a patient's own bone marrow can be injected into the fracture area and can speed the healing process. Dr Seok-Jung Kim from the Catholic University College of Medicine, Seoul, coordinated a multi-centre, randomized clinical study of the osteoblast treatment. Medicalnewstoday.comNeural Circuitry Of Near-Misses May Explain The Allure Of Gambling A new study demonstrates that when gambling, almost winning promotes significant recruitment of win-related circuitry within the brain and enhances the motivation to gamble. The research, published by Cell Press in the February 12th issue of the journal Neuron, provides insight into why gambling is so attractive and may shed light on why some individuals develop a compulsion to gamble. Medicalnewstoday.comStudy Suggests New Treatment Approach May Be Needed For Management Of Depression In Some People With Bipolar Disorder In a study published in The American Journal of Psychiatry, a team of researchers led by Mayo Clinic psychiatrist Mark Frye, M.D., attempted to identify what factors make some people with bipolar depression more likely to experience treatment-emergent mania (TEM). Bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depressive illness, is a mental illness characterized by severe mood instability that can be serious and disabling. Medicalnewstoday.comAmerican Chemical Society publications win prestigious awards (American Chemical Society) The American Chemical Society, the world's largest scientific society, has won two prestigious PROSE awards for excellence in scholarly publishing. The awards went to ACS Nano for Best New Journal in the category of Science, Technology, and Medicine. ACS was also recognized as the winner of eProduct/Best Website or Platform. This prestigious award recognizes ACS for the recent launch of a dynamic new Web delivery platform, now hosting the Society's 34 peer-reviewed research journals. Eurekalert.orgWPI professor and institute head elected to National Academy of Engineering (Worcester Polytechnic Institute) Diran Apelian, Howmet Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute and director of the university's Metal Processing Institute, has been elected to the National Academy of Engineering. Election to the NAE is among the highest distinctions accorded to engineers. Apelian, an internationally recognized pioneer in metals research, was honored for 'contributions to solidification processing and for outstanding leadership in engineering education and university-industry collaboration.'
