However, producing these networks, which are only one atom thick, in high quality and with the greatest possible stability currently still poses a great…
The research, published this week in the journal Nature, is the first application of such an “algorithmic cooling” technique to ultra-cold atomic gases,…
“The mirror completion means we can build a large, deployable telescope for space,” said Scott Willoughby, vice president and Webb program manager at Northrop…
Astronomers, including the University of California, Riverside's Bahram Mobasher and his graduate student Hooshang Nayyeri, have discovered that one of the…
“By means of these issued patents, our super resolution microscopy is especially important for molecular biotechnology and the pharmaceutical industry, with…
Two Earth-sized planets have been discovered circling a dying star that has passed the red giant stage. Because of their close orbits, the planets must have…
Such chemical species can be produced by the interaction of sunlight or cosmic rays with Pluto's known surface ices, including methane, carbon monoxide and…
“The goal of Kepler is to find Earth-sized planets in the habitable zone. Proving the existence of Earth-sized exoplanets is a major step toward achieving that…
Atomic force microscope cantilever tips with integrated heaters are widely used to characterize polymer films in electronics and optical devices,…
Ultrafast laser pulses are used to create features and surface textures in metals, ceramics and other materials for applications including the manufacture of…
Quantum computing—considered the powerhouse of computational tasks—may have applications in areas outside of pure electronics, according to a University of…
UCDs were recognized as a populous and potentially distinct class of stellar systems about a decade ago. But they are still mysterious objects that are…
Reciprocally, a wave in the lattice affects the electrons motion, in analogy to a wave in the sea that pushes a surfer riding it. This interaction results in a…
However, given the vastness of space and the long times between supernovae, astronomers can say with certainty that there is no threatening star close enough…
International team of researchers explain the difficulty of detecting quantum effectsAre there parallel universes? And how will we know? This is one of many…
When a meteorite careens toward the dusty surface of the Red Planet, it kicks up dust and can cause avalanching even before the rock from outer space hits the…
