Argonne National Laboratory has made extremely precise measurements of unstable ruthenium nuclei. The measurements are a ...

Researchers at Purdue University have achieved a long-sought milestone, demonstrating what they call a “photonic transistor” that operates at single-photon intensities. There are few technologies more ...

Introduction: The accuracy of dose delivery in radiotherapy is paramount to maximize tumor control while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues. This study presents a comprehensive analysis ...

Recent work suggests that a single photon might be detected in more than one spot simultaneously. Some see this as a reason to reconsider the idea of alternate universes interacting behind the scenes.

An advanced version of the famous double-slit experiment has directly measured a single photon in two places at once – or at least, that’s the claim made by a team of physicists who say these results ...

Detecting sub-5nm defects creates huge challenges for chipmakers, challenges that have a direct impact on yield, reliability, and profitability. In addition to being smaller and harder to detect, ...

Georgia Tech researchers recently proposed a method for generating quantum entanglement between photons. This method constitutes a breakthrough that has potentially transformative consequences for the ...

The High Energy Photon Source (HEPS), China’s flagship synchrotron radiation facility, has officially begun its joint-commissioning phase after successfully completing photon beam commissioning, the ...

A new set of electron beam measurements puts the upgraded Advanced Photon Source (APS) at the top of the list of the world's synchrotron X-ray research facilities. The APS, a U.S. Department of Energy ...
