		<description><![CDATA[Nightwatch: A Practical Guide to Viewing the Universe

  With 250,000 copies in print since its initial publication in 1983, NightWatch has become a standard reference guide for stargazers throughout North America.    The new Third Edition expands on that success with a completely revised and updated text, more than 100 new color [...]]]></description>

		<title>Scanning electron microscopy &#8211; Wellcome Image Awards 2009 (HD)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[				
				
Electron microscopes use a beam of electrons rather than photons of light to generate images from their subjects. Watch this video to see how a scanning electron microscope is used to image objects that may only be a few nanometres in thickness. For more information see www.wellcomeimageawards.org

		<title>The dependence of star formation activity on environment and stellar-mass at z~1 from the HiZELS H-alpha survey. (arXiv:1007.2642v1 [astro-ph.CO])</title>
		<description><![CDATA[(Abridged) This paper presents an environment and stellar mass study of a
large sample of star-forming (SF) galaxies at z=0.84 from the HiZELS survey,
over 1.3 deg^2 in the COSMOS and UKIDSS UDS fields. By taking advantage of a
truly panoramic coverage, from the field to a rich cluster, it is shown that
both mass and environment play crucial [...]]]></description>

		<title>Light Colored Scalar as Messenger of Up-Quark Flavor Dynamics in Grand Unified Theories. (arXiv:1007.2604v1 [hep-ph])</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The measured forward-backward asymmetry in the t tbar production at the
Tevatron might be explained by the additional exchange of a colored weak
singlet scalar. Such state appears in some of the grand unified theories and
its interactions with the up-quarks are purely antisymmetric in flavor space.
We systematically investigate the resulting impact on charm and top quark
physics. The [...]]]></description>

		<title>Station Altitude Raised; Spacewalk Preps and Science Activities Continue</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The altitude of the International Space Station was raised early Friday morning after the docked Progress 38 vehicle fired its thrusters for nearly 18 minutes. The reboost places the station at an altitude to support the departure of the Expedition 24 crew in September and the arrival of the Expedition 25 crew in October.

		<title>The Nature of Space and Time [VHS]</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Nature of Space and Time [VHS]

Einstein said that the most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible. But was he right? Can the quantum theory of fields and Einstein&#8217;s general theory of relativity, the two most accurate and successful theories in all of physics, be united in a single quantum theory [...]]]></description>

		<title>Generation of coherent states of photon-added type via pathway of eigenfunctions. (arXiv:1007.2418v1 [quant-ph])</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We obtain and investigate the regular eigenfunctions of simple differential
operators x^r d^{r+1}/dx^{r+1}, r=1, 2, &#8230; with the eigenvalues equal to one.
With the help of these eigenfunctions we construct a non-unitary analogue of
boson displacement operator which will be acting on the vacuum. In this way we
generate collective quantum states of the Fock space which are normalized [...]]]></description>
