Iran offers glimpse of space facility to journalists International journalists have been allowed to look inside Iran's key space facility for the first time. The move comes after claims by the UN that Tehran is keeping a tight lid on its technological capabilities. [url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/n...
Title: Evidence for an axion-like particle from PKS 1222+216? Authors: F. Tavecchio, M. Roncadelli, G. Galanti, G. Bonnoli The surprising discovery by MAGIC of an intense, rapidly varying very high energy (E>50 GeV) emission from the flat spectrum radio quasar PKS 1222+216 represents a...
Mathematicians have mapped the inner workings of one of the most complicated structures ever studied: the object known as the exceptional Lie group E8. This achievement is significant both as an advance in basic knowledge and because of the many connections between E8 and other areas, including...
