Even small objects can cause massive damage to fast-moving airplanes, aviation experts say, underscoring the inherent risks to pilots and passengers of collisions in the nation’s airspace after three ...

Small objects have great power. They can transform an ordinary room into a welcoming and stylish space without requiring major work or a large budget. The trick is to select pieces that complement ...

The future of imaging extremely small objects may come down to doughnut-shaped beams of light, according to a study from researchers at JILA and the Department of Physics. The study explored the ...

Thinking about luxury in an interior does not always mean increasing the surface area or spending more money. Often, a few carefully selected objects are enough to transform the perception of a space.

Active boundary heating and cooling can make a small object look much larger to thermal sensors, a step toward compact thermal camouflage and new ways to steer heat in devices. (Nanowerk Spotlight) ...

A University of Alaska Fairbanks scientist is participating in a U.S. government effort to design a satellite and instruments capable of detecting space debris as small as 1 centimeter, less than ...

A new laser-based technique can create images of structures too tiny to view with traditional microscopes, and without damaging them. The approach could help scientists inspect nanoelectronics, ...

In a new study, researchers at CU Boulder have used doughnut-shaped beams of light to take detailed images of objects too tiny to view with traditional microscopes. The new technique could help ...
