(Nanowerk Spotlight) Controlling how electromagnetic waves behave as they move through space is essential for technologies like wireless communication, radar, and remote sensing. Engineers have ...

Scientists have developed innovative aerogels for radiative cooling and electromagnetic waves absorption. Using plastic waste, the team engineered thin-film aerogels that function as thermal ...

Every effort should be made to keep lighting of the same color, intensity, and day length for laboratory animal breeding and housing, thus avoiding added environmental variables to investigations.

An overlooked mechanism lets energy from lightning reach the highest layers of the atmosphere, where it could threaten the safety of satellites and astronauts. When lightning occurs, the energy it ...

Whenever any two things in the Universe interact at the same location in spacetime, one thing always remains true about that interaction: it conserves energy. But what if one of those things is an ...
