Understanding instabilities and turbulence in plasmas is one of the key challenges across a wide range of plasma research fields, including nuclear fusion, astrophysics and laser-plasma physics. In ...

Water ice under extreme pressure shifts into a denser, less symmetrical structure, informing planetary models while its ...

Researchers developed an end-to-end inverse design method that uses LSTM prediction, a conditional generative adversarial ...

Many students struggle with light interference.I think one reason is that there are too many devices. Young's experiment, ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) has learned to work with language by breaking continuous information into discrete tokens and modeling the relationships among them. A new conceptual framework proposes ...

Investigation of diffraction and jitter — two factors that influence the energy density produced by a laser beam projected from an aperture and focused onto a distant surface. The report first ...

A 24mm lens at f/8 has an opening 3.00 mm across. A 600mm lens at f/8 has one 75 mm across, 25 times wider, and it draws a diffraction pattern on the sky 25 times finer. Both land a blur spot on your ...

NASA’s rover found disc-shaped mineral features on Mount Sharp that may preserve ancient water chemistry. For the first time, it will drill above a key geological boundary, delivering rock powder to C ...

As of August 31, the instrument that twice broke the world record for microscope resolution is now commercially available to any semiconductor or materials research lab that needs it. Thermo Fisher ...

The story behind the 100-year-old discovery that continues to render Nobel Prizes. Alone in the Martian desert, a robot was looking for answers. In 2012, Nasa’s Curiosity rover scooped up a small pile ...

Researchers have generated high-quality atom diffraction data from graphene, which could lead to new ways to measure surface interactions. A beam of neutral atoms striking a material can produce a ...

Optical dispersion occurs when the refractive index of a material changes with the wavelength of incoming light. This variation causes different colors to move at different speeds in transparent media ...
