Since Einstein, physicists have found that certain entities can reach superluminal (that means "faster-than-light") speeds and still follow the cosmic rules laid down by special relativity.

Abstract: Fiber-optic Cherenkov radiation (FOCR) is a promising nonlinear process that is widely used for nonlinear wavelength conversion. In this study, an all-fiber 920-nm femtosecond pulse source ...

Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory to be world’s largest and provide new insights into high-energy Universe.

Astronomers have employed the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS) to observe a mysterious gamma-ray emitting source designated HESS J1857+026. Results of the ...

Researchers of Tomsk Polytechnic University together with their colleagues have developed a simple analytical model that allows optimizing the operation of compact electron accelerator-based X-ray ...

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration extragalactic transients characterized by ultrahigh brightness temperatures, suggesting coherent emission mechanisms in extreme astrophysical ...

Earlier this year, an underwater detector in the Mediterranean Sea found the most energetic neutrino to date. And scientists are still talking about it because, well, this discovery could be a really ...

A new detector analyzing antineutrinos can remotely monitor nuclear reactor operations, potentially enhancing nuclear safety standards. Credit: SciTechDaily.com Researchers have developed a new ...

Discerning whether a nuclear reactor is being used to also create material for nuclear weapons is difficult, but capturing and analyzing antimatter particles has shown promise for monitoring what ...
