- 1From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedAstrophys. J. Lett. 667, L37 (2007) Not all supernovae are created equal, according to an analysis of 169 stellar explosions. Andrew Howell and his colleagues at the University of Toronto in Canada analysed the peak...
- 2From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedSolid-state superconducting circuits (1-3) are versatile systems in which quantum states can be engineered and controlled. Recent progress in this area has opened up exciting possibilities for exploring fundamental...
- 3From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedFour months after a landslide dumped 4.5 million cubic metres of rock and mud into Russia's Valley of Geysers, two geysers have reemerged, and others may be on their way, researchers say. Of the 41 notable geysers in...
- 4From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedThe lung consists of an elaborate network of branching tubes; the tubes themselves are made of a layer of epithelial cells wrapped around a hollow, air-filled core, much like the thin rubber of a balloon surrounds the...
- 5From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedChinese and US scientists have found for the first time that the H5N1 avian flu virus can pass across the placenta and infect unborn children. The autopsies of a pregnant woman and a man, reported last week (J. Gu et...
- 6From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedThe original Sputnik, a polished metal sphere with radio transmitters and antennas that orbited Earth, was a relatively humble venture. It was launched 50 years ago, partly by chance and before the space race, as...
- 7From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedMuscovites have a complex relationship with the bold architecture they call the "building with the golden brain". The widely visible tower near Gagarin Square in the southwest of the Russian capital, topped by a...
- 8From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedPhys. Rev. Lett. 99, 126403 (2007) Young's double-slit experiment--a classic demonstration of the wave nature of light--has been repeated for a 'polariton condensate' to test claims about such condensates' quantum...
- 9From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedTo make a movie of molecular rearrangements, the criteria are strict. Enough of the illuminating beam should be scattered off the imaged object during each frame to form an image (at least one particle for each pixel),...
- 10From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedThe White House has withdrawn a controversial bulletin that would have sought to standardize the way in which US government departments use science to assess risks. The bulletin had been fiercely criticized as an...
- 11From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedColorado State University in Fort Collins says that a spin-off company started by one of its professors could employ up to 500 people to make solar panels that will "dramatically reduce" the price of solar power. AVA...
- 12From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedColloidal crystals--arrangements of generally spherical particles between around 10 and 100 nanometres in size--typically assume a dense face-centred-cubic (f.c.c.) order, with particles at each vertex and in the middle...
- 13From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedThe magnitude of atmospheric cooling during the Last Glacial Maximum and the timing of the transition into the current interglacial period remain poorly constrained in tropical regions, partly because of a lack of...
- 14From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedThe inaugural climate summit hosted by President George W. Bush in Washington DC last week was greeted with cautious optimism from some scientists. But his continued insistence on voluntary measures for reducing...

- 16From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedBiol. Lett. doi:10.1098/rsbl.2007.0394 (2007) After emerging from their nests, green turtle hatchlings bolt for the sea and disappear. What they do in the 'lost years' that follow, before they reappear to feed on...
- 17From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-Reviewed460 kilograms of illegal black caviar were seized by Russian police in a raid last week. 90% is the amount that beluga sturgeon stocks have declined in the past 20 years. US$7,500 is the price fetched by a kilogram...
- 18From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedSpace agencies rely on the public's interest in people and animals to sustain engagement with their programmes. Curiosity over the ill-fated Mars lander Beagle 2, for example, was undoubtedly boosted by its clever name....
- 19From: Nature. (Vol. 449, Issue 7162) Peer-ReviewedAfter the general dip that hit global stock markets at the end of July, the value of nanotechnology companies steadied in the past few months, as investors absorbed a mixed bag of financial results. The Lux Research...
