Scientists have demonstrated a new fiber-optic sensing method that detects strain and displacement by reading interference ...

Thomas Young, born 250 years ago this week, was a polymath who made seminal contributions in fields from physics to Egyptology. But perhaps his most enduring legacy is proving Isaac Newton wrong about ...

In a paper published in Nature Photonics, the research team from the Center for Quantum Information and Communication – Ecole polytechnique de Bruxelles of Université libre de Bruxelles, has found an ...

The Alpencamper is a compact, towable camper designed to be pulled by a bicycle, ...

Changing light's polarization can reverse the structure of a patterned light field, opening a new way to control geometry and information in optics. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Light can be bent, focused, or ...

A groundbreaking experiment at the Tokyo University of Science has proven that beams of antimatter atom exhibit wave-like ...

Using a trapped-ion quantum computer, the research team witnessed the interference pattern of a single atom caused by a 'conical intersection'. Conical intersections are known throughout chemistry and ...
