When a laser experiment fails to produce the expected flash of light, most researchers would assume something went wrong with ...

One of the great successes of 20th-century physics was the quantum mechanical description of solids. This allowed scientists to understand for the first time how and why certain materials conduct ...

Liquids and solutions may look simple, but on the molecular scale they are constantly shifting and reorganizing. When sugar dissolves in water, each sugar molecule quickly becomes surrounded by fast ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich have shown, for the first time with very high time and spatial resolution, that electrons in ...

Ultraviolet light has always sat at the edge of human perception, powerful yet invisible, more associated with sterilizing ...

Learn how spectroscopy facilitates non-invasive, real-time bio-monitoring, enhancing decision-making in healthcare, ...

Terahertz (THz) radiation, which occupies the frequency band between microwaves and infrared light, is essential in many next ...

The evidence indicates that non-invasive monitoring (near-infrared spectroscopy; NIRS) of oxygen in brain tissue likely does not reduce death rates or short-term brain problems for very premature ...

The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) launched a remote sensing experiment to sharpen artificial intelligence (AI) ...
