Asteroid impacts with global consequences are vastly rarer, especially compared to the frequency with which they appear in ...

NASA’s DART mission, the first-ever planetary defense test in space, sent a spacecraft to ...

An asteroid impact would be devastating for Earth, but certain types of space rocks can be even more damaging, as, instead of ...

Scientists warn that certain asteroids could become more dangerous upon entering Earth, potentially complicating asteroid ...

Once a surprise to physicists, these particles are useful tools inside and outside the realm of particle physics.

Physicists at the University of Oxford have contributed to a new study which has found that iron-rich asteroids can tolerate far more energy than previously thought without breaking apart—a ...

Euler-Bernoulli (EB) and Timoshenko-Ehrenfest (TE) theories model simple beams under linear constraints. But even keeping these constraints, specific structural effects in real applications compromise ...

PRIMES has released the ScanFieldMonitor 2D (SFM 2D), developed to meet the requirements of laser-scanner applications in ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...

If you’ve got a decent CRT monitor, you can usually adjust the settings to make sure the image scans nicely across the whole display. But what if you could rotate the whole image itself? [Jeri ...

Abstract: The impetus given display, recording, computer, and space technologies by the revolutionary discovery of the laser has created an ever-increasing need for controlled optical-beam deflection ...
