Mechanical forces generated by cells not only drive the bending, stretching, alignment, and repositioning required for tissue development and homeostasis, but also regulate cell functions ranging from ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have developed a noncontact vibration measurement method using an event camera, a sensing technology inspired by biological vision. By applying geometric analysis ...

The energy transition requires not only the development of new technologies, but also their reliable and economical operation. For many years, the Institute of Solar Research has been developing ...

How can the Universe be expanding at two distinct rates? This enigma, named the Hubble tension, has puzzled astronomers for several years. The origin of this tension lies in the discrepancy ...

Astronomers have found a clever new way to slice and dice the flickering light from a distant star in a way that reveals the strength of gravity at its surface. That is important because a star’s ...

Physicists at Boston University have achieved what amounts to a long-sought benchmark in quantum measurement: detecting the ...

Large contractors are putting a new standard for productivity measurement to the test in the hope of producing better project process controls. The new standard, which was adopted last fall as ASTM ...

Lasers that transmit data on optical fibers do not produce monochromatic light. Instead, they provide a narrow spectrum that includes many wavelengths. The physical characteristics of optical fibers ...
