Soft materials are ubiquitous in our daily lives, from the food we eat to the products we use to the materials that make up our bodies. Some examples of soft materials include cream, toothpaste, and blood. Most soft materials ...
A team of researchers in Penn State's College of Agricultural Sciences has identified a compound in white button mushrooms that could potentially benefit gut health in mammals by activating a protective biological response.
India's latest space mission completed a key step in the country's second attempt at a lunar landing, with its Moon module separating from its propulsion section on Thursday.
A new research by a team from the Institut de Ciències del Mar (ICM-CSIC) and the Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (MNCN-CSIC) in collaboration with Australian and New Zealander researchers has shown how the major festivities ...
The interactions between light and matter are a central research focus in the field of photonics. Resonant cavities with high quality factors (Q) are capable to confine light effectively and exhibit ultra-long radiation lifetimes, ...
Since the conception of the laser frequency comb in the late 1990s, it has revolutionized the precise measurement of frequency and time. Beyond their initial use in optical clocks and precision spectroscopy, optical frequency ...
Streams of ultrashort light pulses delivered from mode-locked laser resonators stimulate potential applications in ultrafast science and information technology. Here the elementary pulse entity, termed dissipative solitons ...
"Warm Arctic—cold Eurasia" is one of the most significant patterns of winter climate system changes in the mid-high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere. In winter 2020/21, this large-scale pattern underwent a significant ...
The transition to chaos is ubiquitous in nonlinear systems. Continuous-wave-driven photonic-chip-based Kerr microresonators exhibit spatiotemporal chaos, also known as chaotic modulation instability.
The ordered areas of proteins are readily studied. Consequently, a great deal is known about the role of these areas in the biological function of the respective proteins. However, an international research team led by biochemist ...
