Advancing our understanding of the human brain will require new insights into how neural circuitry works in mammals, including laboratory mice. These investigations require monitoring brain activity ...

When we look at the world around us, all that we see is thanks to light. It reflects, refracts, and interacts, carrying shape ...

Today, most people take pictures with their phones. However, long ago, we used film. This meant that if you wanted to take a good photo, you had to know some chemistry. People had to understand the ...

A new theory, that explains how light and matter interact at the quantum level has enabled researchers to define for the first time the precise shape of a single photon. A new theory, that explains ...

Illustration of exciton splitting in the organic semiconductor pentacene, which consists of five benzene rings each. Instead of the usual two free charge carriers, absorption of a photon in pentacene ...

A new experiment confirms that angular momentum conservation holds even when a single photon is split into two.

OAK BROOK, Ill. – New CT technology allows for a comprehensive, simultaneous evaluation of lung structure and function, something not possible with standard CT, according to a study published in ...

For the first time, researchers have observed how just one particle of light can trigger photosynthesis in bacteria — finally revealing the first step of the crucial process. When you purchase through ...

I don’t know, ask Erwin Schrödinger. He was a relative of mine on my mother’s side. He told her mum, but she couldn’t understand it either. We’ve been in the dark ever since. The laws of the universe ...
