The viruses probably regulate the growth of snow algae on the ice by infecting them. Knowing how to control these viruses could help us reduce some of the ice from…
Experiments in weightlessness isolate classic diffusion phenomenon. For years, various models have been developed to describe an important class of mixing effects that occur, for example, in the flow in…
Optical waves propagating through air or multi-mode fiber can be patterned or decomposed using orthogonal spatial modes, with far-ranging applications in imaging, communication, and directed energy. Yet the systems that…
Plastics made of polycarbonate are sought-after materials in industrial applications thanks to their versatility and high quality. However, recycling of plastic waste is still running up against limits these days,…
Developing transparent particles and imaging their positions, researchers shed light on never-before-seen interiors of crystalline structures. A team of New York University researchers has created a new way to visualize…
… to treat neurological diseases and conditions. Fraunhofer researchers have developed a technology that uses ultrasound signals for targeted stimulation of certain areas of the brain. A special ultra-sound system…
