Sometimes and without a clock we are capable to tell what time it is or to wake up an hour in particular. Scientists suspect that this skill is mechanized in some place of our body. Investigators of the Service of Neurology have stimulated and inhibited parts of the brain supposedly implied. The results discard the role of the prefrontal lobe...
A team of researchers of the UAB have developed a process which could increase the computer storage capacity. This application is due to the study of the magnetical properties of circular structures with submicrometrics size. By means of these tiny disks, the researchers have obtained "Exchange Biased Vortices", that could rise the magnetic...
Gold nanoparticles have unusual properties compared with other elements. We have taken advantage of this characteristic to create a new type of biological marker. The Sensors and Biosensors Group at the UAB, jointly with the Institute of Molecular...
To achieve an optimum, sure and clean industrial process is a challenge even now-a-days. It depends on several factors: macroscopic ones and those invisible to our eyes. Investigators of the ICMAB-CSIC at UAB are working at this level of approach. They closely study the physics and chemistry effects of industrial materials from a molecular...
The enlargement of the mountainous ranges ino the interior of the badges, far from his surface, is one of the failed subjects in the study of global tectonics. A team of investigators of the Department of Geology have demonstrated how a singular conjunction of superficial and deep processes have extended the intracontinental mountain ranges of...
Heterogeneous photocatalisis has generated great interest at the prospect of new methods becoming avalaible that allow industrial sectors to control the generation of non-biodegradable, toxic contaminants. Researchers of the Unit of Chemistry and Physics of the UAB Department of Chemistry have made improvements by modifying TiO2 with Al (III)...
