A unique new material that shrinks when it is heated and expands when it is cooled could help enable the ultra-stable space telescopes ...

Abstract In the past decade, phase-contrast imaging (PCI) has become a hot research with an increased improvement of the image contrast with respect to conventional absorption radiography. In this ...

Astronomers from the University of Turku in Finland and elsewhere have performed a broadband spectral and timing study of an ...

Operando X-ray spectroscopy is a powerful tool for probing electrocatalyst dynamics—but intense X-ray exposure can distort ...

A new X-ray-based method reveals how glasses yield upon irradiation, offering insights into their structural resilience and potential for radiation resistant applications ...

A vast filament of gas stretching across the cosmos may help solve the mystery of the Universe’s missing matter. Astronomers ...

New observations support the idea that hot, diffuse threads of gas called cosmic filaments connect clusters of galaxies ...

The goal of this research is to develop an instant turn-on X-ray tube with high speed response. The tube is expected to produce a micro-spot less than 0.5mm at a voltage of 40kV and a current of 1mA.

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves.
