For the first time, scientists have captured how complex molecules change shape when exposed to UV light—an ultra-fast ...

Many biologically important molecules change shape when stimulated by UV radiation. Although this property can also be found in some drugs, it is not ...

Ultraviolet-microscopes are used for nondestructive imaging of microscopic samples in regions beyond visible regions. The shorter wavelengths used by the microscopes provide greater magnification.

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a type of light. Sunlight has UV rays, along with other kinds of rays. Some light bulbs give off UV rays, too. UV light bulbs are used in tanning beds and lamps, some ...

A hybrid microscope allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. The microscope combines ...

Unpredictable bursts of light are pulsing from the debris surrounding Sagittarius A*, offering new insights into the mysterious behavior of the most massive object in our galaxy Ella Jeffries ...

Researchers say chlorine in combination with ultraviolet light works to degrade deadly toxins created by harmful algae blooms in drinking water. Treatment plants use a combination of tools to keep ...

Using a robotic microscope and image analysis software they developed, they quickly counted millions of cells under hundreds of conditions over time. This approach allowed them to examine tumor ...

Astronomers using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have taken a detailed look at the supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way, called Sagittarius A*. They found that the swirling ...

(CNN) — Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have spied dynamic flares of light near the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy. The constant, rapid-fire ...

The supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way appears to be having a party—and it is weird, wild and wonderful. Using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), a Northwestern ...
