New technique speeds measurement of ultrafast pulses
When we look at an object with our eyes, or with a camera, we can automatically gather enough pixels of light at visible wavelengths to have a clear image of what we see......»»
Ancient Mayans built pyramid partly from ash after catastrophic volcanic eruption
Akira Ichikawa, an archaeologist at the University of Colorado Boulder, has found evidence of Mayans returning to a part of Central America that was destroyed after a catastrophic volcanic eruption, much sooner than previously thought. In his paper p.....»»
We knew the iPhone 13 wouldn’t have USB-C, but I’m still disappointed
The iPhone still doesn’t have USB-C, but that doesn’t mean it won’t ever happen. In fact, the transition from Lightning could happen sooner than you think......»»
Ultrafast charge transfer in Prussian blue analogues
Photoinduced charge transfers are an interesting electronic property of Prussian blue and some analogously structured compounds. A team of researchers has now been able to elucidate the ultrafast processes in the light-induced charge transfer between.....»»
A new Google Pixel 5a leak just showed off its beefy battery
Google is preparing to launch the Pixel 5a sooner rather than later. A new report shows our first live view of the phone -- or at least parts of it......»»
Asia Venturing: EV is taking over faster than expected
The booming of the EV market will come sooner than expected. The latest announcements from the US, EU, and China are heralded by the coming of the EV era. The EU just proposed to ban the sale of petrol and diesel vehicles in the EU from 2035. The US.....»»
FireHydrant announces $23M Series B to grow disaster management platform
No matter how carefully you set up your systems, sooner or later something fundamental breaks. How you react during those times and how quickly you respond to the crisis is what people remember after it’s over. FireHydrant, a startup that helps.....»»
Ultrafast X-ray provides new look at plasma discharge breakdown in water
Occurring faster than the speed of sound, the mystery behind the breakdown of plasma discharges in water is one step closer to being understood as researchers pursue applying new diagnostic processes using state-of-the-art X-ray imaging to the challe.....»»
Future information technologies: Topological materials for ultrafast spintronics
The laws of quantum physics rule the microcosm. They determine, for example, how easily electrons move through a crystal and thus whether the material is a metal, a semiconductor or an insulator. Quantum physics may lead to exotic properties in certa.....»»
Watching the ultrafast dance moves of a laser plasma
Great leaps in science and technology have been propelled by recent advances in seeing fast evolving physical phenomena, as they happen. Femtosecond lasers from the infrared to the X-ray region have enabled us to 'watch', in real time, atoms dance in.....»»
Scientists take first snapshots of ultrafast switching in a quantum electronic device
Electronic circuits that compute and store information contain millions of tiny switches that control the flow of electric current. A deeper understanding of how these tiny switches work could help researchers push the frontiers of modern computing......»»
Spectral-volumetric compressed ultrafast photography simultaneously captures 5D data in a single snapshot
Information-rich optical imaging can provide multidimensional information to enable observation and analysis of a detected target, contributing insights into mysterious and unknown worlds. With its ability to capture dynamic scenes on picosecond—an.....»»
The demonstration of ultrafast switching to an insulating-like metastable state
In recent years, physicists and electronics engineers have been trying to devise strategies to control or produce quantum states of matter in different materials. Such strategies could ultimately prove valuable for the development of new technologica.....»»
Ultra-strong squeezing of light demonstrated for ultrafast optical signal processing
A train carrying cargo has finite space. The amount of cargo that can be carried onboard is limited by the size of the cargo and the capacity of the train. Analogously, the amount of time taken up by an optical signal limits the amount of data that c.....»»
Goodbye CVs — As work went remote, companies flocked to a startup dumping CVs for skill tests
As companies scrambled to re-orient themselves last year during the pandemic, one thing was clear: the shift to remote working had come sooner than anyone expected. With this came a fundamental shift in how businesses would have to hire new talent. A.....»»
How plants quickly adapt to shifting environmental conditions
Scientists—and gardeners—have long known that plants grow taller and flower sooner when they are shaded by close-growing neighbors. Now, for the first time, researchers at the Salk Institute have shown the detailed inner workings of this process......»»
Australian airline policies mandating vaccines will be test of workplace rights
Airlines want you vaccinated. They want as many people as possible vaccinated. The sooner that happens, the sooner borders open and they can get back to profitability......»»
Research reveals resilience of sea life in the aftermath of mass extinctions
Pioneering research has shown marine ecosystems can start working again, providing important functions for humans, after being wiped out much sooner than their return to peak biodiversity......»»
Researchers observe sound-light pulses in 2D materials for the first time
Using an ultrafast transmission electron microscope, researchers from the Technion—Israel Institute of Technology have, for the first time, recorded the propagation of combined sound and light waves in atomically thin materials......»»
A link between childhood stress and early molars
Research shows that children from lower-income backgrounds and those who go through greater adverse childhood experiences get their first permanent molars sooner. The findings align with a broader pattern of accelerated development often seen under c.....»»
