The microscope, a revolutionary instrument that has reshaped our understanding of the world at a microscopic level, has seen substantial advancements since its inception in the 17th century. The most ...

What's it like to zoom into a drop of water? Watching this video makes me feel like I'm riding on a tiny submarine. Things get interesting when the video zooms in past all of the tiny water bubbles, ...

A glacier's flow depends on how microscopic defects move through the ice, according to new research that also yielded a new model for predicting how glaciers will flow, ultimately contributing to ...

What occurs during the melting process in two-dimensional systems at the microscopic level? Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) have explored this phenomenon in thin magnetic ...

Spiral-tip motion combined with image reconstruction techniques is an approach that can help scientists better understand the behavior of an electric charge at the microscopic level, essential for ...

Through a microscopic lens, the heat from an igniting matchstick – captured within one-eight-thousandth of a second – is palpable. A mosaic of caffeine crystals could be mistaken for a work of ...

Researchers have invented an entirely new field of microscopy -- nuclear spin microscopy. The team can visualize magnetic signals of nuclear magnetic resonance with a microscope. Quantum sensors ...
