The colors of the sunset result from a phenomenon called scattering. Molecules and small particles in the atmosphere change the direction of light rays, causing them to scatter. Scattering affects the ...

In neutron scattering experiments, instruments count the scattered neutrons as a function of wave vector Q, which depends on the scattering angle θ and wavelength λ. For elastic scattering – i.e., ...

Dynamic light scattering (DLS) is a valued sizing technique for proteins, colloids and dispersions, which comfortably extends to the sub 1 nm region. The observation of scattered light helps determine ...

A team of researchers has successfully demonstrated nonlinear Compton scattering (NCS) between an ultra-relativistic electron beam and an ultrahigh intensity laser pulse using the 4-Petawatt laser.

Researchers from the University of Trento, the InQubator for Quantum Simulations, and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) recently published an algorithm for a quantum computer that ...

A team of researchers have extended Berry’s well-known geometric-dynamic decomposition from the wave-evolution phase to a distinct class of wave scattering problems Wave scattering events can now be ...

How neutron scattering aids research "When physicians first started investigating the uptick of lung injuries in young people, they were finding a buildup of VEA," said Marquardt. "That meant that the ...
