Modern imaging is contributing significantly to giving us a better understanding of how our brains work. In the long term, this will also help us to treat learning disorders in a more targeted way and ...

MIT physicists have built a new microscope that can see quantum motion inside superconductors ...

You can tell a lot about a material based on the type of light shining at it: Optical light illuminates a material's surface, ...

With the terahertz scope, the team observed a frictionless “superfluid” of superconducting electrons that were collectively ...

This might be the beginning of arterial calcifications. It is an elekron microscopy image of calcified material forming deposits. This is the first time it was possible to show a biological process ...

A new microscope is capable of live imaging of biological processes in such detail that moving protein complexes are visible. In Nijmegen, the world's first microscope has been installed that is ...

Each year, more than 200 million people fall sick with malaria and more than half a million of these infections lead to death. The World Health Organization recommends parasite-based diagnosis before ...

The superconducting gap sets the basic energy scale that allows electricity to flow without resistance in a superconductor. In high‑temperature cuprates, the paired electrons (Cooper pairs) are mostly ...
