WASHINGTON -- A microscopic cancer "smart bomb" powered by a single radioactive atom is able to find and kill tumor cells in laboratory experiments. Researchers hope to test the technique on human ...
Today, IBM released a stop-motion, animated short film called "A Boy And His Atom." Okay, so they made a stop motion movie. People do that on YouTube all the time. But what makes this a big deal ...
Detecting atomic state hydrogen - the smallest atom in the universe ... and his co-authors developed a new visualization technique harnessing an optical microscope and polyaniline layer.
As the number of particles in a physical system increases, its properties can change and different phase transitions (i.e., shifts into different phases of matter) can take place. Microscopic systems ...
TEAM 0.5 is the world's most powerful transmission electron microscope and is capable of producing images with half-angstrom resolution, less than the diameter of a single hydrogen atom.
The ultrasoft 'tip' of the cold-atom scanning probe microscope will offer new possibilities for exploring the interactions between atoms and surfaces.
Microscopic Atoms interact with each other through the electromagnetic force , because the electrons and protons in the atoms are electrically charged. Technically this force has infinite range, but ...
A special technique allows researchers to use a particle's mass as the driver for an atomic clock. Turning the process around may lead to precise measurments of microscopic mass.
Wolkow has, in some form, worked to make single atom circuits for 30 years now—studying promising materials to death, tinkering with his microscope, and making incremental progress.
Mark Raizen, a professor of physics at The University of Texas at Austin, and his team have developed the world's highest resolution atom lens, a key component of a new kind of microscope called an ...
World's largest atom smasher could seed microscopic black holes. News. By Paul Sutter published 4 December 2020 And reveal extra dimensions.
