A team from the Faculty of Physics and the Center for Quantum Optical Technologies at the Center of New Technologies, University of Warsaw has developed a new method for measuring elusive terahertz ...

Now physicists from the University of Washington are taking a big swing at answering that question. All matter exerts gravitational force. The more mass the object has, the greater the force. Yet, a ...

Researchers have found a way to make “dark excitons”—normally invisible quantum states of light—shine dramatically brighter by trapping them inside a tiny gold-nanotube optical cavity. This ...

The Matrix Foundation has released patches and mitigation details for two vulnerabilities that use its open standard communications protocol to transmit sensitive information. The nonprofit Matrix ...

The visible light spectrum that humans perceive spans only a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum — roughly 430 to 750 THz, corresponding to wavelengths of ~400-700 nm. Just beyond this range ...

Terahertz radiation (THz), electromagnetic radiation with frequencies ranging between 0.1 and 10 THz, could be leveraged to develop various new technologies, including imaging and communication ...

A Position-sensitive Detector (PSD) is a specialized sensor used to detect the position of light across its surface, offering precise spatial resolution. Typically employed in applications such as ...

New bismuth-based organic-inorganic hybrid materials show exceptional sensitivity and long-term stability as X-ray detectors, significantly more sensitive than commercial X-ray detectors. In addition, ...

Leo XIV has repeatedly criticized abortion in his homilies, often tying the issue of abortion to euthanasia. In a recent address, he said, "God's mercy calls us to protect every life, especially those ...
