On New York’s Long Island, scientists are building an ambitious machine to tease apart the mysteries held inside atomic nuclei. A major component of that system is the world’s highest voltage electron gun and it’s just aced a six-month test.Continue Re… Continue reading Ray gun accelerates electrons from zero to 500 million mph in two inches
Physicists have created the heaviest clumps of antimatter particles ever seen. Known as antihyperhydrogen-4, this strange stuff could help us solve some of the most puzzling physics mysteries.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Antimatter, … Continue reading Heaviest-ever clumps of antimatter created in atom smasher
In an effort to mitigate human-caused climate warming, scientists are focused on ways to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. One of the more novel ways to do this has just been announced by scientists at the Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) … Continue reading Climate alchemy: Team turns carbon dioxide into super-strong fibers
Physicists at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) have discovered a completely new type of quantum entanglement, the spooky phenomenon that binds particles across any distance. In particle collider experiments, the new entanglement allowed scientists … Continue reading Physicists discover completely new type of quantum entanglement
While plants such as corn and soybeans are major sources of biofuel, they’re grown on land that could otherwise be used for food crops. With that problem in mind, scientists have genetically engineered oil-producing duckweed that could be grown in wast… Continue reading Engineered duckweed could be a more sustainable source of biofuel
Engineers at Brookhaven National Laboratory have designed a strange new X-ray microscope that takes advantage of the spooky world of quantum physics to “ghost image” biomolecules in high resolution but at a lower radiation dose.Continue ReadingCategory… Continue reading Quantum X-ray microscope “ghost images” molecules using entanglement
