Where would carbon-based life be without carbon? There are 118 known chemical elements, but carbon is the fourth most ...

While the year-end technical stop (YETS) is still in full swing in the LHC and progressing as planned, the injector complex is gradually being ...

While the year-end technical stop (YETS) is still in full swing in the LHC and progressing as planned, the injector complex is gradually being restarted. A week ago, Linac4, the PS Booster (PSB), the ...

A favourable feature of magnetometers with a small vapour cell is their reduced sensitivity ... of levels of spatial quantization in atoms. Application to the Stern and Gerlach and magnetic ...

Eco-friendly alternatives to fossil fuels are venturing beyond Earth—and into space.

“These atoms are exquisitely sensitive to black-body radiation,” explains NIST’s Christopher Holloway, who headed the work. Central to the new apparatus is a magneto-optical trap inside a vacuum ...

However, little toxicity testing has been performed to evaluate the chemical nature of vapour generated from e–cigarettes. The aim of this study was to screen e-cigarette vapours for content of four ...

Physicists and engineers have developed a groundbreaking method to measure magnetic field orientation using atoms as tiny compasses. This advancement could enhance applications in quantum sensing, ...

Researchers at CU Boulder have created a new type of magnetic field sensor using atoms, offering increased precision.

It has the potential to revolutionize quantum sensor technology. The research demonstrates the capabilities of trapped vapor atoms. These atoms can simultaneously measure minute variations in ...

In their most recent work, they successfully incorporated rhodium and indium ions onto the ring via nitrogen atoms. The team's new dye showed its strongest light absorption at a wavelength of ...

"The strength of a bond depends directly on the distance between the atoms," says Professor Claudia S. Schnohr of the Felix Bloch Institute for Solid State Physics at Leipzig University ...
