Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have used the same phenomenon to build an optical device that may lead to new and more powerful computers…
NIST-F2 would neither gain nor lose one second in about 300 million years, making it about three times as accurate as NIST-F1, which has served as the standard…
One approach for computing with qubits relies on the creation of two single photons that interfere with one another in a device called a waveguide….
Previous randomized clinical trials have shown that dose-escalated radiation therapy improves prostate cancer control compared to lower-dose conventional…
Using publicly available data from NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, independent scientists at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), the…
Solar flares are powerful bursts of radiation. Harmful radiation from a flare cannot pass through Earth's atmosphere to physically affect humans on the ground,…
The international collaborative team points out that the classical rotor, a macroscopic particle of mass confined to a ring, is one of the most studied systems…
Professor Stephan Irle of the Institute of Transformative Bio-Molecules (WPI-ITbM) at Nagoya University and co-workers at Kyoto University, Oak Ridge National…
For instance, it has some unusual dust lanes [1] embedded within a much larger envelope of stars, and a population of unusually small globular star clusters….
Germanium monosulfide, GeS, is emerging as one of the most important “IV–VI” semiconductor materials with potential in opto-electronics applications for…
The image on the left, captured March 11 by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, shows comet C/2013 A1, also called Siding Spring, at a distance of 353 million…
The asteroid Chariklo, which circles the Sun between the orbits of Saturn and Uranus, is surrounded by two thin rings of ice particles. It is thus the fifth…
The images show precipitation falling inside a March 10 cyclone over the northwest Pacific Ocean, approximately 1,000 miles east of Japan. The data were…
Lick Observatory's newest telescope, the Automated Planet Finder (APF), has been operating robotically night after night on Mt. Hamilton since January,…
For decades physicists across the globe have been trying to figure out the mysteries of black holes – those fascinating monstrous entities that have such…
