A research team based in Graz and Villach has developed an exhaust gas analyser that detects tiny particles faster and more accurately.
The theoretical physicists Junior Professor Fabian Pauly and his postdoc Dr. Safa G. Bahoosh now succeeded in a team of experimental physicists and chemists in…
Physicists from MIPT have predicted the existence of transparent composite media with unusual optical properties. Using graphics card based simulations,…
Physicists at the University of Iowa have proposed a new technique to detect and measure materials that give off weak magnetic signals or have no magnetic…
Three working groups from Heidelberg, Cologne and Potsdam are involved in a joint project to develop a new technology for astronomical research. The…
The terahertz waves span frequency ranges between the infrared spectrum (used, for example, for night vision) and gigahertz waves (which find their…
Mars may have been a wetter place than previously thought, according to research on simulated Martian meteorites conducted, in part, at the Department of…
Eruptions on the Sun's surface send clouds of electrically charged particles towards Earth, producing solar storms that–among other things–can trigger the…
Our constantly-changing sun sometimes erupts with bursts of light, solar material, or ultra-fast energized particles — collectively, these events contribute…
Gas outflows are common features of active supermassive black holes that reside in the center of large galaxies. Millions to billions of times the mass of the…
The dark matter map is derived from Hubble Space Telescope Frontier Fields data of a trio of galaxy clusters that act as cosmic magnifying glasses to peer into…
An international team of scientists has tailored special X-ray glasses to concentrate the beam of an X-ray laser stronger than ever before. The individually…
A trip past the sun may have selectively altered the production of one form of water in a comet – an effect not seen by astronomers before, a new NASA study…
Limitations of the piezoelectric array technologies conventionally used for ultrasonics inspired a group of University College London researchers to explore an…
There are few things more central to life on earth than water. It dominates the physical landscape, covering much of the planet as oceans. It's also a major…
When the universe was young, a supermassive black hole — bloated to the bursting point with stupendous power — heaved out a jet of particle-infused energy…
