A quantum trick based on interferometric measurements allows a team of researchers at LMU to detect even the smallest ...

The Circinus galaxy, a galaxy about 13 million light-years away, contains an active supermassive black hole that continues to ...

The scientists behind the MAGIS-100 experiment aim to use state-of-the-art lasers to shed light on ultralight dark matter.

We suspect there are three kinds of people in the world. People who have access to a Michelson Interferometer and are glad, those who don’t have one and don’t know what one is, and a ...

This collage highlights several concepts proposed by 2024 NIAC Phase I awardees, including miniaturized interstellar spacecraft, a Venus glider, a water detoxifier for Mars, a solar-system-scale ...

Physicists have created a quantum interferometer on an atom chip. This device can be used to explore the fundamentals of quantum theory by studying the interference pattern between two beams of atoms.

Massimo Fazio, PhD, Assistant Professor at the University of Alabama at Birmingham Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, and his colleagues Luigi Bruno, PhD, and Gianfranco Bianco, PhD, ...

Closing the loop on a V8 piezo linear motor with a laser interferometer: resolution down to 0.15 nanometers is achievable. Here's how it works: https://www.pi-usa.us ...

Particle-wave duality enables the construction of interferometers for matter waves, which complement optical interferometers in precision measurement devices. This requires the development of ...

Interferometers, devices that can modulate aspects of light, play the important role of modulating and switching light signals in fiber-optic communications networks and are frequently used for gas ...
