Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a novel artificial ...

Researchers have discovered that superconducting nanowire photon detectors can also be used as highly accurate particle detectors, and they have found the optimal nanowire size for high detection ...

Flo-Guard is a particle flow detector that uses microprocessor-controlledtribo-electric technology. It can be used to detect a broken bag in a dust collector and can also detect solids at the clean ...

Across the semiconductor industry, ensuring cleanrooms and mini-environments are sufficiently monitored for particle sizes down to 100 nm is a common practice. Most industries have adopted this ...

Flow cytometry is a high-throughput method of cell analysis wherein live cells are passed in single file by a series of lasers and detectors. The degree of scattering experienced by the laser light ...

A new computational analysis supports the idea that photons (a.k.a. particles of light) colliding with heavy ions can create a fluid of 'strongly interacting' particles. In a new paper, they show that ...

Close-up view of a SNSPD mounted on a printed circuit board inside the cryostat at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility. This device was used in the first successful demonstration of high-energy proton ...
