Dr. Udo Gommel, Head of the Department of Ultraclean Technology and Micromanufacturing, is responsible for the establishment of cleanroom and cleanliness…
For a number of years, scientists have been working on using electron spins to store and process information. A possible approach is to use a quantum system in…
It is more complicated than many might think to clean components for industry. Expert knowledge is required in selecting the correct cleaning process,…
Astronomers found that active star formation upswells galaxies, like yeast helps bread rise. Using three powerful telescopes on the ground and in orbit, they…
Even today, fast data transfer in telecommunication networks employs short light pulses. Ultra broadband technology uses optical fiber links through which…
Researchers from the Development and Growth Control Laboratory at IRB Barcelona have identified the cell types and molecular mechanism responsible for the…
Not only would improved predictive models help scientists better model how evolution works, but also they could aid in efforts to prevent infectious diseases….
“We started to mount these summer campaigns on a regular basis two years ago,” said Joe MacGregor, IceBridge's deputy project scientist and a glaciologist with…
The new simulation captures the physics of magnetic reconnection, the breaking apart and snapping together of the magnetic field lines in plasma that occurs…
We generally imagine atomic nuclei to be more or less spherical, but always relatively chaotic, clusters of protons and neutrons. Experiments at the Argonne…
“It's a bit like Legos,” said Ian Wong, an assistant professor in Brown's School of Engineering and co-author of the research. “We can attach polymers together…
The findings, which have been reported in Nature Communications, reveal that the h-BN layers form the strongest thin insulator available globally and the…
A new study mapping lightning around the globe finds lightning strokes occur nearly twice as often directly above heavily-trafficked shipping lanes in the…
Imagine a club scene–a bouncer at a velvet rope selects which individuals get into the club. This, explains Eva Kanso, a professor of mechanical engineering…
In a joint research project, scientists from the Max Born Institute for Nonlinear Optics and Short Pulse Spectroscopy (MBI), the Technische Universität Berlin…
Conventional electron accelerators have become an indispensable tool in modern research. The extremely bright radiation generated by synchrotrons, or free…
