Seeing individual atoms in color is now possible

atoms

Until now only black and white images were possible by existing electron microscope to view atoms but now Cornell’s Duffield Hall has acquired a new electron microscope that will enable scientists to see individual atoms in color for the very first time. The new microscope uses a technology called aberration-correction which is more intense and allows for faster imaging speed. So now one can also see how atoms are bonded to one another in a crystal, because the bonding creates small shifts in the energy signatures.

Plane Designers learn from Birds

Birds, bats and insects fly in a chaotic environment full of gusts traveling at speeds similar to their own. Yet they can react almost immediately and adjust with their flexible wings. Roland Piquepaille points out a news release from the University of Michigan where researchers are looking to birds and bats for insights into aerospace engineering. Wei Shyy and his colleagues are learning from solutions developed by nature and applying them to the technology of flight.

The roll rate of the aerobatic A-4 Skyhawk plane is about 720 degrees per second. The roll rate of a barn swallow exceeds 5,000 degrees per second. Select military aircraft can resist gravitational forces of 8-10 G. Many birds regularly experience positive G-forces greater than 10 G and up to 14 G. Flapping flight is inherently uneven, but that’s why it works so well.

Bar Codes to Keep Surgical Objects Outside

A lot of cases are heard when after few days of surgery it is found that some items like sponges, small instruments etc are left inside the patient. This is a big problem for both doctors and patient. Patient can experience pain and develop serious problems while doctors may land in legal trouble and get a bad name. To prevent this potentially deadly problem, a new technology is developed that can help its surgical teams keep track of all sponges used during a surgical procedure. Each sponge has a unique bar code affixed to it that is scanned by a high-tech device to obtain a count. Before a procedure begins, the identification number of the patient and the badge of the surgical team member maintaining the count are scanned into the counter. When a sponge is removed from a patient, it is scanned back into the system.
