Gravitational waves stretch and squeeze the fabric of space and time itself. When space/time is squeezed, pulsar pulses ...
EPFL scientists have developed a new technique that lets researchers watch, with unprecedented sensitivity, how materials ...
Scientists say the phenomenon could “hint at” new particles or interactions between known particles that haven’t been ...
A NASA satellite that’s been orbiting as space junk since 1967, Relay 2, emitted an unexpected, powerful radio burst that astronomers initially struggled to explain.
Mysterious radio signals detected emanating from Antarctica's ice have left particle physicists baffled. The pulses were ...
PERTH — Something deep in the Milky Way is pulsing like clockwork, and no one knows what it is. Every 44 minutes, a mysterious space object nearly 15,000 light-years away sends out a blast of radio ...
The largest radio telescope FAST detects 90% circular polarization and rapidly changing linear polarization in the bursts of a fast radio burst (FRB) repeater, imposing new constraint on radiative ...
Unlike visible or radio waves, THz waves can penetrate nonmetallic materials such as clothing and paper, and they can reveal structural details of biological molecules. To fully unlock the potential ...
Terahertz (THz) waves, which are located between microwaves and infrared light in the electromagnetic spectrum, can pass through many materials without causing damage, making them useful for security ...
Terahertz (THz) waves, situated on the electromagnetic spectrum between microwaves and infrared light, hold promise for applications in wireless communication and medical imaging. However ...
A fast radio burst (FRB), thought to stem from compact astronomical objects like neutron stars (a supergiant star left behind from a supernova) and potentially black holes, produces a scintillation ...
In a companion study, researchers from McGill University observed a highly polarized signal from FRB 20221022A. This polarization traced a smooth S-shaped curve, reminiscent of signals from pulsars, ...
