(Michigan State University) Michigan State University astronomer Megan Donahue uses words such as "cool" and "interesting" to describe the two distinct "tails" found on a long tail of gas that is believed to be forming stars where few stars have been formed before.

(Institute of Physics) A group of 74 US veterans has been involved in clinical trials which appear to have objectively diagnosed post-traumatic stress disorder, something conventional brain scans, be it X-ray, CT or MRI, have thus far failed to do.

(Texas A&M University) Thanks to medical imaging techniques such as X-ray CT, ultrasound imaging and MRI, doctors have long been able to see to varying degrees what's going on inside a patient's body, and now a Texas A&M University mathematician is trying to find new and better ways to do so.

The first large black holes in the universe likely formed and grew deep inside gigantic, starlike cocoons that smothered their powerful X-ray radiation and prevented surrounding gases from being blown away, says a new study.

A chemical reaction can occur in the blink of an eye. Thanks to a new analytical method, scientists can now pinpoint, at the millisecond level, what happens as harmful environmental contaminants such as arsenic begin to react with soil and water under various conditions.

Three-dimensional, real-time X-ray images may be closer to reality. New work on a process called high-harmonic generation, or HHG.

X-ray radiation can be created by focusing an optical laser into atoms of gaseous elements – usually low-electron types such as hydrogen, helium, or neon.

(University of Nebraska-Lincoln) Three-dimensional, real-time X-ray images may be closer to reality because of research by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and a pair of Russian institutes.

Brookhaven researchers have demonstrated a new, highly detailed x-ray imaging technique that could be developed into a method for early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease.

The joint Japan-US Suzaku mission is providing new insight into how assemblages of thousands of galaxies pull themselves together.

For the first time, Suzaku has detected X-ray-emitting gas at a cluster's outskirts, where a billion-year plunge to the center begins.
