Color mixing is the process of combining two or more colors: red and green make yellow, blue and red make purple, red and green and blue make white. This process of mixing colors is the basis for the future of solid-stat...

Quantum magnetometers are able to detect and visualize the tiniest damage in ferromagnetic materials. In aerospace technology or the automotive industry, they can help to significantly increase the resilience and safety ...

Satellite images reveal the heat still radiating from the reawakened volcano in Iceland.

Growing up at a different temperature seems to transform common prey bacteria into predators, suggesting that bacterial ecology is more fluid than we thought

Cameras recorded footage in red, blue, green and UV channels simultaneously, with openly available software processing the raw footage and converting it into different kinds of "animal vision," showing us how bees, birds...

People with type 2 diabetes who take part in clinical trials may benefit from professional weight loss advice, regular monitoring and moral support, which can be lacking outside of research settings

A camera can recreate how animals see the world through both visible and ultraviolet light

The DragonFire laser can shoot down drones and costs less than $13 a shot, the UK government claims.

A pair of linked solar flares recently exploded near-simultaneously from sunspots on different hemispheres of our home star, triggering radio blackouts on Earth.

Microscopic water bears can enter a near-invincible 'tun' state when stressed, enabling them to survive in the harshest conditions -- including the vacuum of space. Now we know how.

When temperatures drop below freezing, alligators can enter a state of torpor known as brumation, as the water around them solidifies and suspends them in a giant, pond-shaped ice cube.

Integral imaging (II) display is one of the most promising near-eye displays (NEDs) due to its compact volume, full parallax, convenient full-color display, and, more importantly, true-3D and more realistic depth percept...

A study suggests that a yeast tied to tooth decay in young children may be passed to them by their mothers, and this is more likely if the moms have lots of dental plaque.

The most sensitive image of a globular cluster, a tightly packed ball of ancient stars, has revealed a strange radio signal that could be a black hole.

Today, water pressure technology is ubiquitous, and any person who showers, waters a garden, or fights fires is benefiting from the technology devised to harness it. In the 17th and 18th centuries, though, a steady strea...

The sudden disappearance of quantum fluctuations inside an atom-thin 2D superconductor has left scientists baffled.

Footage from the nursery cameras of children who died of explained causes suggests that seizures are likely implicated in the tragedies.

The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists cited the threat of nuclear escalation in Ukraine, climate change and disruptive technologies as reasons to keep the clock at 90 seconds to midnight.

High-power, high-energy ultrafast fiber lasers are indispensable tools in various fields, from basic and applied science research to industrial processing. However, due to thermal effects, nonlinear effects, there is alw...

An international team of researchers from Leibniz University Hannover (Germany) and the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow (United Kingdom) has disproved a previously held assumption about the impact of multiphoton com...

Super-resolution (SR) fluorescence microscopy, through the use of fluorescent probes and specific excitation and emission procedures, surpasses the diffraction limit of resolution (200~300 nm) that was once a barrier.

In the pursuit of efficient energy utilization, scientists are looking into thermoelectric materials that can efficiently turn heat into electricity. One specific type, called topological magnets, is getting a lot of att...
