A better way to learn if alien planets have the right stuff

A new method for analyzing the chemical composition of stars may help scientists winnow the search for Earth 2.0.

Yale University researchers Debra Fischer and John Michael Brewer, in a new study that will appear in the Astrophysical Journal, describe a computational modeling technique that gives a clearer sense of the chemistry of stars, revealing the conditions present when their planets formed. The system creates a new way to assess the habitability and biological evolution possibilities of planets outside our solar system. (more…)

Mit einer optimierten Methode gewinnen Forscher Bilder von Geweben mit ihren feinsten Strukturen

Für viele Forschungszwecke benötigen Wissenschaftler realitätsgetreue und detaillierte Darstellungen von Gewebe- und Zellstrukturen aus dem Körper nach dem Tod von Mensch oder Tier. Klassische Gewebeschnitte werden gefärbt und unter dem Mikroskop untersucht. (more…)

Is That Study Legitimate? Here’s How to Tell

Science

Scientific studies are frequently the basis for news stories that seem too good to be true. How does the audience separate fact from fiction? The head of research at the UA explains. (more…)
