Jan. 27 (UPI) --University of Rochester researchers have developed a novel beam pattern that promises to lend unprecedented sharpness to ultrasound and radar images. The beam's mathematical pattern ...

Important instruments for neuroscience and medical diagnostics, optically pumped magnetometers measure responses of polarized atoms to produce information about the low-frequency external field. They ...

A new beam pattern could bring unprecedented sharpness to ultrasound and radar images, burn precise holes in manufactured materials at a nano scale -- even etch new properties onto their surfaces. A ...

Beams of light polarized into spirals have been used by scientists in the UK to create intricate patterns on the surface of metals. This is the first time that these “logarithmic spirals” have been ...
