Atoms are the tiny building blocks of all matter, but under the right conditions, they can become giants. Scientists have found a way to use these supersized atoms, called Rydberg atoms, to create a ...

Internal diagram of the CH32V003 MCU ... Even so, as a crude temperature measurement, it might just be good enough.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) utilizes mid-infrared spectroscopy to precisely analyze molecular components such as ...

This gives us both a way of talking about energy and a way of measuring temperature using a known reference. In turn, the temperature of the thermometer can be related to its physical properties.

By observing how these special atoms react to heat, scientists can now measure temperature with incredible accuracy, even without touching the object or needing to calibrate their device.
