Gold Nanostars, couple of nanometers in size and might take thousands of them to span diameter of human hair and yet could be effective in fighting tumor. Nanotechology has shown a promising offer, a new possibilities for cancer therapy. Photo courtesy of CrystEngComm Blog Since my initial research, searching for efficient ways to address cancer detection has prompted enormous progress. On a global scale, by 2030 there will be 21.7 million new cases of cancer and 13 million cancer-related deaths. This health burden is likely to increase if we fail to make the necessary changes in the early detection of cancer. For years, now, cancer has been studies as a laboratory problem, but, while much has been learned, we are still some distance short of having discovered its cause. This being the case, we must still, perforce, rely upon already existing clinical knowledge-diagnosis, operation, irradiation -the indispensable triad. Of these three the greatest is, "diagnosis;
Hunt for Gravitational wave. Article by: Rahul Kumar According to Einstein, we should expect to find this radiation everywhere in space. So, why is it still one of astronomy’s most elusive targets? Gravity alters the shape of space and time. Paths of light and massive bodies curve under its influence. When something Agitate space-time with enough energy – say a supernova explosion – the distortion spreads out in ripples, like a stone when dropped in a pond. Those ripples or waves are called gravitational waves. But this waves are very weak and only if the accelerating object has enough mass, it should be possible to spot them. At least, that’s what we suspect. we’ve been trying to detect them ever since. In Einstein's theory of general relativity published in the year 1916 , gravity is treated as a phenomenon resulting from the curvature of spacetime . This curvature is caused by the presence of mass . Generally, the more mass that is contained w
