Try searching for your own micrometeorites by collecting particulates from roofs or drain spouts. Use a magnet to see if any particles are attracted, and discard nonmagnetic ones. Use your microscope ...

Scientists created a tiny matrix that stores data by etching its grid into a thin ceramic film with a focused ion beam.

Scientists have created the smallest QR code in the world, measuring just 3.07 × 10⁻⁹ square inches (1.98 square micrometers). It can preserve data for thousands of years and it's so small that you ...

Within the white, clinical walls of a nondescript UNLV lab, a small team of neuroscientists are working on a project with potentially big implications for children suffering from seizures. Their goal: ...

High-energy cosmic radiation damages cells and DNA, causing cancer, and secondary neutrons—generated especially from the planetary surfaces—can be up to 20 times more harmful than other radiations.

Within a modest engineering laboratory at Duke University, a new type of researcher is quietly at work next to an optical microscope. This new researcher has no need for coffee, does not become tired, ...

The list of winners for this year’s Nikon Small World Photomicrography Competition has finally been released, and the contest’s talented photographers once again wow viewers with fantastical images of ...

Combination allows researchers to investigate samples with greater speed, ease of use, and experimental flexibility Oxford Instruments’ Raman imaging team has announced a new core microscope line and ...
