The bill also includes a huge tax hike for certain universities and rescinds major clean energy and climate research funds.

Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death and currently available care strategies often have systemic side effects. Implantable bioelectronics have been proposed as an alternate solution, but ...

In fiber optic communication, optical sensing, laser processing, and other applications, scientists and engineers must be able to measure the power and wavelength of light simultaneously. However, ...

Ultrafast electron diffraction (UED) using femtosecond electron pulses is one of the best ways to observe dynamic changes in crystal structure. However, analyzing the resulting diffraction data can be ...

The inexpensive and readily accessible electroencephalography (EEG) method allows doctors to characterize the brain’s electrical activity, enabling them to diagnose sleep disorders and seizures.

A spinning disk and a smartphone are all that are needed for students to study vibrations analogous to those produced by the ...

Extreme weather events — though rare — destroy ecosystems and end lives, and they are becoming more common with rising global ...

In certain circumstances, laser-induced plasmas can lead to unwanted effects in many high-power laser applications, such as laser processing. Plasma generation from lasers has been a stubbornly ...

The performance of quantum computers and gravitational wave detectors both rely on understanding the quantum systems underlying them, but fully characterizing those systems is difficult due to the ...

To highlight areas of interest in the body, magnetic resonance imaging uses contrast agents. However, many agents use gadolinium, which are difficult to source and can be harmful to the environment.

The Mpemba effect — named for a Tanzanian physics student who first observed it while making ice cream in 1963 — refers to the thermodynamics phenomenon of how hot substances or materials, such as ...

Thermal stability, chemical inertness, and electrical insulation properties make hexagonal phase boron nitride (h- BN), a layered crystal structurally similar to graphite, ideal for biomedical ...
