With a suite of reimagined instruments at SLAC's LCLS facility, researchers see massive improvement in data quality and take up scientific inquiries that were out of reach just one year ago.
The ability to detect single photons (the smallest energy packets constituting electromagnetic radiation) in the infrared range has become a pressing need across numerous fields, from medical imaging and astrophysics to emerging ...
It sounds like science fiction: a spacecraft, no heavier than a paperclip, propelled by a laser beam and hurtling through space at the speed of light toward a black hole, on a mission to probe the very fabric of space and ...
Researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have discovered that the size of catalytic nanoparticles determines how their shape and structure transform during chemical reactions. ...
Three nano-glass spheres cling to one another. They form a tower-like cluster, similar to when you pile three scoops of ice cream on top of one another—only much smaller. The diameter of the nano cluster is ten times smaller ...
EPFL researchers have developed a new imaging method using a single-photon camera that can characterize thousands of molecules quickly and simultaneously. The research is published in the journal Light: Science & Applications.
How do left-handed and right-handed molecules differ? Researchers at ETH Zurich are using a new imaging method to visualize what was previously only measurable as an average, opening up new possibilities for biology and materials ...
Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), an international team of astronomers has observed a distant faint galaxy designated JADES-GS-z14-1. Results of the observational campaign, published July 30 on the arXiv preprint ...
Serendipitously and for the first time, an international research team led by scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory formed solid binary gold hydride, a compound made exclusively ...
In the everyday world that humans experience, objects behave in a predictable way, explained by classical physics. One of the important aspects of classical physics is that nothing, not even information, can travel faster ...
