Physics and Astronomy

This area deals with the fundamental laws and building blocks of nature and how they interact, the properties and the behavior of matter, and research into space and time and their structures.

innovations-report provides in-depth reports and articles on subjects such as astrophysics, laser technologies, nuclear, quantum, particle and solid-state physics, nanotechnologies, planetary research and findings (Mars, Venus) and developments related to the Hubble Telescope.

New theory reveals the shape of a single photon

A new theory, that explains how light and matter interact at the quantum level has enabled researchers to define for the first time the precise shape of a single photon….

Spinning fusion fuel for efficiency

Aligning the quantum property known as spin for fusion fuels could make it easier to generate electricity economically. A different mix of fuels with enhanced properties could overcome some of…

Improving hurricane modeling with physics-informed machine learning

Algorithm reconstructs wind fields quickly, accurately, and with less observational data. Hurricanes, or tropical cyclones, can be devastating natural disasters, leveling entire cities and claiming hundreds or thousands of lives….

New Method for new Materials

Physicists at the University of Magdeburg develop low-cost production process for transition metal nitrides in high industrial demand. A team of researchers at Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg has developed…

Nano-scale molecular detective

New on-chip device uses exotic light rays in 2D material to detect molecules. Researchers have developed a highly sensitive detector for identifying molecules via their infrared vibrational “fingerprint”. Published in Nature…

Ytterbium thin-disk lasers

… pave the way for sensitive detection of atmospheric pollutants. Alongside carbon dioxide, methane is a key driver of global warming. To detect and monitor the climate pollutants in the…
