New model describes result of non-reciprocal interactions between two non-linear molecules

by quasarn01 | Aug 20, 2025 | Latest in Physics

Asymmetric interactions between different species of molecules have previously been demonstrated to result in self-organized patterns and functions. If one species A is attracted to B, but in turn, B is repelled by A, run-and-chase dynamic emerges. Go to...

Researchers develop novel miniaturized lidar technology based on cross dual-microcomb

by quasarn01 | Aug 20, 2025 | Latest in Physics

Optical frequency combs, as a time and frequency “ruler,” have important applications in precision ranging. Conventional dual-comb ranging schemes utilize the optical Vernier effect to achieve long-distance measurements, and they typically require...

Room-temperature reactor uses electrochemistry to boost nuclear fusion rates

by quasarn01 | Aug 20, 2025 | Latest in Physics

Using a small bench-top reactor, researchers at the University of British Columbia (UBC) have demonstrated that electrochemically loading a solid metal target with deuterium fuel can boost nuclear fusion rates. Go to Source

The most powerful tool in an astronomer’s arsenal is a lens—but not the kind you might think

by quasarn01 | Aug 20, 2025 | Astronomy

Astronomers are living in a golden age of bigger and better telescopes. But even our most advanced technology pales in comparison to the power of nature’s own “cosmic magnifying glasses”—strong gravitational lenses. Go to Source
