CONSTRUCTED. >> WE ARE IN BLAIR COUNTY AND THIS IS THE PLANT RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING THE BEAMS HEADED TO FERN HOLLOW. THIS IS ONE OF THEM. THESE ARE HIGH-PERFORMANCE CONCRETE BEAMS. IT IS ABOUT 155 ...

Airy beam: When an ordinary beam of neutrons strikes the team’s silicon grating, the millions of scored lines on the grating convert the neutrons into an Airy beam with a wavefront that travels along ...

In a physics first, a team including scientists from UB and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has created a way to make beams of neutrons travel in curves. These Airy beams ...

Scientists may have discovered how to create a real-life tractor beam using electromagnetic radiation that can draw particles toward it. The result is something very akin to the tractor beam seen in ...

Researchers have devised optical tweezers made up of laser beams that could be used to manipulate and move tiny atoms to align them to form single molecules. This is a breakthrough and has been done ...
