Researchers have developed a high-tech system that rapidly scans ants and converts them into detailed 3D models. Using a synchrotron accelerator, X-ray imaging, robotics, and AI, the team scanned ...

For the first time, scientists have observed how tiny metal "thorns" called dendrites sprout inside lithium-ion batteries, which can cause the batteries to short-circuit. Their findings, published in ...

For more than ten years, Evan Economo's lab has relied on micro CT scanners to image insect specimens. These X ray scans allow scientists to examine ...

Lithium dendrites, i.e. tiny crystalline thorns that grow off of lithium-ion battery anodes during charging, have been a ...

Four-legged robots that scramble up stairs, stride over rubble, and stream inspection data — no preorder, no lab coat required.

A recent study published in the Journal of Sleep Research suggests that people who frequently experience lucid dreams have specific physical network patterns in their brains. Scientists found that the ...

The Hudson River Park Trust – Research Alliance Scholars Program is rooted in the Park’s rich history as a 550-acre estuarine sanctuary stretching from Chambers Street to W 59th Street in Manhattan.

The Peruvian desert has kept its greatest mystery hidden for 2,000 years, concealing ancient inscriptions from all human ...

Thanks to the alternating single-double nature of the bonds, electrons in these orbitals end up delocalized; the differences between the bonds become a bit irrelevant, and the molecule is best viewed ...

Scientists discover that the Earth's magnetic poles can take up to 70,000 years to reverse, much longer than previously ...

Hospital MRI scanners, using 3 Tesla magnets, provide poor spatial resolution in brain imaging. More recent 7T MRIs are better but used mainly in the rare research lab. Scientists have now ...
