How to Measure Nothing Better

Cold atoms could also potentially measure much lower vacuum pressures than ion gauges can. The current lowest pressure they’ve reliably measured is around 10 -9 Pa, and NIST scientists are working on ...
This work, combining behavioural genetics and calcium imaging, provides evidence for a form of learning in Drosophila that derives solely from direct or (optogenetically induced) phantom experience of ...
Spectroscopy, the study of light-matter interactions, is vital for understanding molecular properties and advancing ...
We’re diving into the weird and wonderful world of quantum physics, specifically looking at something called the ...
Cash Isa rates boomed over the last couple of years thanks to 14 consecutive increases in the Bank of England base rate. Unfortunately for savers, the base rate has since started to drop, meaning that ...
Photonics integrates quantum mechanics with light, fostering innovations in quantum computing, secure data transfer, and high ...
Abstract: Frequency nadir is an important indicator for frequency stability analysis and control in power system, so it is significant to calculate the frequency nadir quickly and accurately. To ...
Abstract: Frequency response analysis of power transformers and reactors can reveal mechanical and electrical defects in windings’ structure. Interpretation of a response though, is not an easy task ...
