Photon purity is more than a technical detail. In photonic quantum computing, orderly single-photon streams are easier to ...

A new discovery shows that messy, stray light can be used to clean up quantum systems instead of disrupting them. University ...

Tiny tubes of carbon that emit single photons from just one point along their length have been made in a deterministic manner ...

The advent of flattening filter free (FFF) photon beam radiotherapy marks a significant evolution in external beam treatments. By removing the traditional flattening filter from linear accelerators, ...

Modern life runs on light. Fiber-optic cables move data across continents, lasers guide surgeries, and photons sit at the heart of quantum technologies. Yet one long-standing goal has remained elusive ...

The High Energy Photon Source (HEPS), China’s flagship synchrotron radiation facility, has officially begun its joint-commissioning phase after successfully completing photon beam commissioning, the ...

Romanian scientists have discovered a novel approach for the optical manipulation of macromolecules and biological cells. Their findings, published in EPJ B, stem from challenging the idea that ...

LEMONT, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A new set of electron beam measurements puts the upgraded Advanced Photon Source (APS) at the top of the list of the world’s synchrotron X-ray research facilities. The ...

Researchers from the University of Southern California Information Sciences Institute and the University of Wisconsin-Madison ...

Dr. Ma believes that the better survival with proton therapy may be due to fewer side effects and less stress on the body’s ...

Despite being considered well established, the physics of optical waves have some fundamental aspects, which are still under debate. One of these effects, the anomalous behaviour of focused light ...
