Science & Technology
A team of Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder engineers has developed a scalable manufactured metamaterial with the ability to cool objects under direct sunlight with zero energy and water consumption.
With "high-end ethics" a tenet of how they operate, a team of researchers and alumni have put their skill sets together to turn a nano idea — an imperceptibly thin coating that can improve surfaces such as plastics — into a successful technology.
Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder researcher Aaron Clauset examines the possibilities and limits of using massive data sets of scientific papers and information on scientific careers to study the social processes that underlie discoveries.
New evidence indicates that humans were the primary cause of the Australian megafauna extinction around 45,000 years ago.Â
Bolstering their 60-year relationship, Ball Aerospace and Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder this week announced a new agreement designed to make it easier for students and faculty to collaborate on research projects with Ball scientists.
Neanderthals get a bad rap. Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØarchaeologist Paola Villa is helping set the record straight, suggesting Neanderthals were far more nimble intellectually than they get credit for.
The ancient Puebloan people, numbered in the thousands, could not have grown enough food where they lived in New Mexico, likely forcing them to import their sustenance, a Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder scientist has discovered.
A new study pinpoints when the Galápagos Islands developed their unique ecology.
Researchers from the Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ and Northwestern University have developed a tiny, soft and wearable acoustic sensor that measures vibrations in the human body, allowing them to monitor human heart health and recognize spoken words.
Assistant Professor of Physics Loren Hough has earned a $1.8 million award from the National Institute of General Medical Science to study tubulin, a shape-shifting cellular protein that is quietly essential to many life processes.
