Two recent developments at the Advanced Photon Source explore paths to routine use of sub-meV x-rays to probe low-energy excitations in matter. The first is a remarkable experimental demonstration of ...

Scintillators are optical materials that emit low-energy ultraviolet and visible photons in response to ionizing radiation such as X-rays and gamma rays. This property makes scintillating materials ...

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 ...

AMD Lasers will release the next generation of digital intraoral dental x-ray sensors, Acuity, at the Chicago Dental Society’s 2024 Midwinter Meeting, which takes place February 22-24. The digital ...

Collide light with light, and poof, you get matter and antimatter. It sounds like a simple idea, but it turns out to be surprisingly hard to prove. A team of physicists is now claiming the first ...

Scientists from the RIKEN Cluster for Pioneering Research and collaborators have used simulations to show that the photons emitted by long gamma-ray bursts–one of the most energetic events to take ...
