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 ...

A quantum, the singular form of quanta, is the smallest discrete unit of any physical entity. For example, a quantum of light is a photon, and a quantum of electricity is an electron. Quantum comes ...
