Scientists have reimagined the meaning of a "light meal," creating microlasers that use natural products to emit illuminated ...

Ancient Greek mathematician Archimedes is believed to have built a death ray that was used to burn enemy ships. A teenager ...

Brenden Sener creates a miniature model with four mirrors and heat lamp, which proves Archimedes' theory is plausible.

Sener has since earned multiple medals for his attempt to bring the ancient device to life. In his view, he as shown that ...

Using heat to move mirrors sounds simple, but it opens the door to finely tuned adjustments in everything from satellites to microscopes. This is how thermal expansion becomes a quiet, precise way ...

A simple intensity modulated displacement sensor is proposed for sensing salinity based on different concentration of sodium chloride (NaCl) in deionized water. The proposed sensor uses a 594-nm He-Ne ...

An off-axis flat-concave dual-mirror (FCDM) configuration for an ultrashort focal length projection lens based on the digital light processor (DLP) upright projection-type projector is proposed in ...

NASA's Curiosity rover has snapped its first images of web-like "boxwork" features on the surface of Mars. The zig-zagging rocks could provide clues about the Red Planet's watery past and whether ...
