The detection of dark matter, the elusive type of matter predicted to make up most of the universe's mass, is a long-standing ...

“On the Same Wavelength: Art, Science & Conservation,” a new Nasher exhibition, uses science to peer into the mysterious past of certain artworks. In the process, it highlights an often ...

Sub-wavelength optics is the study of light on a spatial scale smaller than its wavelength. Conventionally, the minimum length scale on which a beam of light can operate is equal to half its ...

Instead, a gadget that uses special light wavelengths to gradually degrade fungal cells, encouraging the growth of new nails naturally. It is a welcome change from conventional therapies and could ...

Welnax BioClear employs specific light wavelengths that target and weaken fungal cells in the nail, gradually eliminating the infection. This technology is widely used in professional dermatology ...

The eye cells are especially sensitive to shorter wavelengths of light, otherwise known as blue light. This is why viewing screens in the evening wakes us up and can make it harder to nod off when ...

This throws out huge amounts of charged particles into space that collide with gas molecules in the Earth's atmosphere, emitting light at various wavelengths in spectacular colourful displays.

This gas absorbed short-wavelength light from any stars that shone before about 200 million years after the Big Bang. But as more and more stars began to burn and gather into galaxies, they ...

In the vast time it takes this light to reach Earth, the expansion of the Universe stretches its wavelength. The relatively short-wavelength UV light produced by young, hot and massive stars is ...

"It was so stunning to not just see the auroras, but the detail and clarity of the signature really shocked me." For the first time, astronomers have captured direct images of Neptune's elusive ...
