The April issue features a JWST image of a star early in its development. if protostars do not generate their own energy through nuclear fusion yet, what produces the infrared light captured by the ...

A team of physicists has just modeled an astonishing quantum phenomenon where ultra-powerful lasers generate light from vacuum. This work could soon be experimentally validated thanks to a new ...

All objects emit heat in the form of infrared light. This effect is strongest in dry, clear air, especially on cloudless nights. As a result, objects can become colder than the surrounding air. For ...

Researchers have theorized a new mechanism to generate high-energy 'quantum light', which could be used to investigate new properties of matter at the atomic scale. Researchers have theorised a new ...

Carbon nanotubes resemble very thin, hollow wires with a diameter of just a nanometer or so. They can generate light in various ways. For example, a laser pulse can excite negatively charged electrons ...

Researchers propose an unconventional way to generate light made from entangled photons. In the graphic above, photons meet the electrons of a helium atom, which then emits two entangled photons.

The Philips Hue app will soon be updated with new functionality that will let users generate different light scenes using AI, Hue parent company Signify announced today. A text phrase will be able to ...

A new kind of laser uses tiny moving particles to produce beams of light. The laser is more programmable than standard lasers and the approach could be used to create visual displays that are sharp ...

Researchers have theorized a new mechanism to generate high-energy "quantum light," which could be used to investigate new properties of matter at the atomic scale. The researchers, from the ...
