By leveraging the concept of chirality, or the difference of a shape from its mirror image, EPFL scientists have engineered ...

They can even detect circular polarized light. All of this excellent visual information makes them lethal underwater hunters (not to mention they can punch about 100 times harder than a human, but ...

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a widely used surgical treatment for neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, and obsessive–compulsive disorder. The procedure involves ...

What scientists previously thought about where Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) come from is just the tip of the iceberg. A new study details the properties of polarized light from 128 non-repeating FRBs ...

Astronomers using the CHIME telescope are looking at strange, one-off cosmic explosions with a new angle. This could bring us closer to solving the lingering mystery of fast radio bursts.

When a light beam is circularly polarized, its electric field corkscrews through space in either a left-handed or right-handed spiral. Because chiral structures interact differently with these two ...

Polarized light yields fresh insight into mysterious fast radio bursts Scientists looked at how polarization changed direction to learn more about origins.

Study detailing the properties of polarized light from 128 non-repeating FRBs reveals mysterious cosmic explosions originate in far-away galaxies like our own Milky Way Peer-Reviewed Publication ...
