GAMMA RAY DELAY MAY BE SIGN OF 'NEW PHYSICS', October 01 Delayed gamma rays from deep space may provide the first evidence for physics beyond current theories. Full story at http://www.physorg.com/news110480559.html
THE DARK MATTER OF THE UNIVERSE HAS A LONG LIFETIME, October 01 New research from the Niels Bohr Institute presents new information that adds another piece of knowledge to the jigsaw puzzle of the dark mystery of the universe – dark matter. The research has just been published in the scientific journal Physical Review Letters.

NEW PARTICLES GET A MASS BOOST, October 01 A sophisticated, new analysis has revealed that the next frontier in particle physics is farther away than once thought. New forms of matter not predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics are most likely twice as massive as theorists had previously calculated, according to a just-published study.

GOOD VIBRATIONS: USING TERAHERTZ RADIATION TO CONTROL MATERIAL PROPERTIES, October 01 A collaboration led by researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has used molecular vibrations, triggered by ultrafast pulses of terahertz radiation, to change a manganite crystal from an electrical insulator into a conductor. The ability to induce dramatic phase-changes in solid materials through select vibrations holds great promise for future exploitation of prized technological phenomena such as superconductivity and magnetoresistance.
