An international team led by the Universities of Geneva (UNIGE) and Montreal published the first results today from the NIRPS spectrograph installed on the European Southern Observatory's (ESO) 3.6-meter telescope in La Silla, ...
Quantum sensing has transformational potential across many areas of technology and science, most prominently biomedical research. The basic premise is to detect and manipulate the spin state of an electron鈥攎agnetic properties ...
A large sub-Neptune-sized planet revolving around a red dwarf star 124 light years away has been the topic of debate among several scientists in recent months.
As technology advances, photonic systems are gaining ground over traditional electronics, using light to transmit and process information more efficiently. One such optical system is laser beam scanning (LBS), where laser ...
Humanity has an insatiable appetite for ammonia: This substance is used to make fertilizer, which in turn is used in most modern agriculture. Until now, the Haber-Bosch process has been the method of choice for extracting ...
The swirling spiral galaxy in this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image is NGC 3285B, which resides 137 million light-years away in the constellation Hydra (the Water Snake). Hydra has the largest area of the 88 constellations ...
A research team in Korea has experimentally demonstrated, for the first time in the world, a nonlinear wave phenomenon that changes its frequency鈥攅ither rising or falling鈥攄epending on which direction the waves come from.
From laundry detergents and self-cleaning ovens to the manufacturing of fuels, plastics and medications, catalysts play a vital role in everyday products and industry.
Plastics like Teflon are famously durable鈥攁nd infamously difficult to recycle. But a breakthrough from researchers at the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST) may offer a powerful new solution.
