Our modern world is full of temperature-sensitive electronic devices, and researchers led by Osaka University have developed a faster, highly accurate way to measure the temperatures of such devices ...

Osaka, Japan – Scientists from the Institute of Laser Engineering at Osaka University determined the mechanism and functional form for the yield of neutrons from a laser-driven source, and used it to ...

Why and where temperature measurement within a nanosecond-scale window may be needed. The arrangement that provided accurate temperature readings in this time span and how it works. The results ...

Insight-HXMT’s discovery of the fundamental electron cyclotron absorption line near 146 keV for the first Galactic ultraluminous X-ray pulsar Swift J 0243.6+6124. Neutron stars have the strongest ...

When nuclear fission occurs inside of a nuclear reactor, neutrons are produced. These neutrons then, to state it simply, either react with the fuel in the reactor or escape from the reactor. These two ...

A new study presents a method to record the temperature of materials with exceptional temporal resolution, using a Doppler broadening effect in neutron resonance absorption. Using a high-powered laser ...
