For the growth of thin films, the introduction of instrumentation began with ‘traditional’ pressure and temperature measurement sensors. This has now expanded to include optical techniques – both ...

A new study has found that some elements of concrete, like quartz, can self-heal when exposed to nuclear radiation over time.

The most essential material in construction is concrete. It is durable, versatile, and strong. Not only concrete can stay stable for many years, be molded into different shapes and sizes, and ...

NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission returned from space with a sample of an asteroid named Bennu and scientists got to dive into a tale ...

A recent project conducted by in-house researchers at the UK’s national synchrotron facility on its Hard X-ray Nanoprobe beamline, looked at how microplastics waste may interact with zinc oxide ...
