Light is usually described using quantum mechanics when phenomena like entanglement enter the picture. But a new paper shows ...

Light has always been described as an elegant partnership of electric and magnetic fields, yet for nearly two centuries physicists treated the magnetic side as a quiet background player. New ...

NEWPORT NEWS, VA – A doctoral dissertation examining the most precise measurement of electron beam polarization ever made was just awarded the prestigious 2022 Jefferson Science Associates (JSA) ...

Aims Over the last decade the induced polarization (IP) method has emerged as a promising tool for subsurface investigation with growing interest for biogeophysics. Methods In this work, in addition ...

Researchers have combined theory and experiments to show that nuclear polarization does not limit studies of muonic atoms, clearing the way for new nuclear physics experiments. University of ...

Jefferson Lab's Compton polarimeter laser system, used to measure the parallel spin of electrons, is aligned during the Calcium Radius Experiment at Jefferson Lab. NEWPORT NEWS, VA – Scientists are ...

The technique in this article explores applied radio frequency fields B 1 expressed and employed as nutation frequencies for nucleus i,ƒ (1,i) =1/2π |1/2 γ i B r,i |, vital constraints in solid-state ...

In the summer of 2019, The Desert Sun’s opinion pages took a “vacation” from national politics. For the month of July, we took a break from all the machinations of Washington and put the focus back ...
