At f/8, every lens produces an identical 10.7-micron diffraction blur on your sensor regardless of focal length or aperture ...

A new approach resolves extended incoherent objects beyond the diffraction limit, potentially advancing observational instrumentation and capability. The method uses a pragmatic imaging model ...

Physical products are increasingly constrained by thermal, mechanical, electrical, and manufacturing realities, yet much of industry still relies on intermittent, expert-mediated physics evaluation.

Researchers have generated high-quality atom diffraction data from graphene, which could lead to new ways to measure surface interactions. A beam of neutral atoms striking a material can produce a ...

A pulse of light sets the tempo in the material. Atoms in a crystalline sheet just a few atoms thick begin to move—not randomly, but in a coordinated rhythm, twisting and untwisting in sync like ...

Prize awarded for work laying foundation for machine learning Hinton quit Google last year to speak more freely about dangers of AI Princeton professor Hopfield created an associative memory that can ...

With work on machine learning that uses artificial neural networks, John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton “showed a completely new way for us to use computers,” the committee said. By Derrick Bryson ...

The Covid-19 pandemic has been perceived mainly as a dangerous acute outbreak of infection that killed more than a million people in the United States and 7 million worldwide. 1,2 However, in the ...

On the morning of June 28, 1914, a Bosnian Serb student named Gavrilo Princip stood outside Moritz Schiller’s delicatessen near the Latin Bridge in Sarajevo. Sometime after 10:45 A.M., a motorcade ...

One of the most prominent climate tipping elements is the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC), which can potentially collapse because of the input of fresh water in the North Atlantic.
