How do we know exactly what is happening at a molecular level during extremely fast processes, such as burning during combustion? In less than the blink of an eye, one chemical compound and then another are present in a flame ...
Combining the way that massive galaxies and galaxy clusters bend space and magnify our view of the distant universe with powerful new instruments sensitive to gravitational waves and electromagnetic radiation will lead to ...
Researchers have determined how to use magnons—collective vibrations of the magnetic spins of atoms—for next-generation information technologies, including quantum technologies with magnetic systems.
Imagine being tasked with baking a soufflé, except the only instruction provided is an ingredient list without any measurements or temperatures.
A research team led by Prof. Zhang Tianshu at the Hefei Institutes of Â鶹ÒùÔºical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a compact all-solid-state continuous-wave (CW) single-longitudinal-mode (SLM) laser with ...
Diseases in the ocean, caused by viruses, bacteria or parasites, can have far-reaching consequences for marine ecosystems. For this reason research has primarily focused on their ecological significance. However, the socioeconomic ...
In a new study, physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have used a cloud of atoms chilled down to incredibly cold temperatures to simultaneously measure acceleration in three dimensions—a feat that many scientists ...
History has a way of repeating itself. But unlike science, built on general principles and testable theories about the natural world, history examines past events and human actions using evidence and interpretation. This ...
A team of researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has introduced a novel framework for designing and creating universal diffractive waveguides that can control the flow of light in highly specific ...
From an orbit 36,000 km from Earth, the Meteosat Third Generation Sounder satellite (MTG-S) is set to revolutionize the way we forecast severe weather. Unlike the imaging satellites, which complete the constellation of the ...
