Collaborate Disseminate
Researchers have developed a novel device that detects the COVID-19 virus in one minute using just a couple of breaths of exhaled air. The device has the potential to revolutionize the testing process, especially in hospitals and schools and at large-s… Continue reading 1-minute COVID breathalyzer could revolutionize testing at social events
The humble X-ray may have received a long-overdue upgrade thanks to the development of a highly sensitive, printable X-ray detector that can operate over a wide range of energy levels.Continue ReadingCategory: TechnologyTags: X-ray, Perovskite, Detecto… Continue reading New multi-energy X-ray detector is highly sensitive and printable
An “Infinite Impedance Detector” might sound a little like something that [Zaphod Beeblebrox] would use to zip around the galaxy. It’s not, of course, but it is an interesting and …read more Continue reading JFET Stands in For Triode in This Infinite Impedance Detector
The first dark matter detector in the Southern Hemisphere has been officially opened. The Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory (SUPL) is built in a disused gold mine in Australia, and the aim is to use its unique position on the globe to finally pick… Continue reading Australian dark matter detector joins the hunt with unique advantage
The world’s most sensitive dark matter detector is up and running, ready to tackle one of the most perplexing mysteries of the universe. With a sensitivity at least 50 times greater than its predecessors, the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment is lurking quiet… Continue reading World’s most sensitive dark matter detector joins the hunt for WIMPs
Most crystal radio receivers have a decidedly “field expedient” look to them. Fashioned as they often are from a few turns of wire around an oatmeal container and a safety …read more Continue reading Multiband Crystal Radio Set Pulls Out All the Stops
Borexino, a huge underground particle detector in Italy, has picked up a never-before-seen type of neutrino coming from the Sun. These neutrinos confirm a 90-year-old hypothesis and complete our picture of the fusion cycle of the Sun and other stars.Co… Continue reading Neutrino detector finds new type of “ghost particle” from the Sun
Despite hunting for it for decades, scientists have so far been unable to detect any definitive signs of dark matter. But a new detector design, using an array of billions of tiny pendulums, could finally break the silence by searching for the effects … Continue reading Proposed dark matter detector watches a billion tiny pendulums swing
Analyzing and troubleshooting a modern AM/FM radio, digital radio, or TV can be a pretty daunting task. However, a common AM radio is easy to understand, experiment with, and repair. Learning about that will help you understand more complex circuits later. That’s the idea behind the Elenco AM radio which …read more
