Waveguides generate digital images directly in the field of vision and enable smart glasses such as the Meta Ray-Ban. We ...

PETRA III Swedish Materials Science are making beamline X-rays accessible for tracking the evolution of material properties during laser processing ...

Smoke-drying mummification of human remains was practised by hunter-gatherers across southern China, southeast Asia and ...

The samples, discovered in southern China, Vietnam and Indonesia, represent the oldest known examples of mummification. They are far older than the well-known practices of the Chinchorro culture in ...

But the practice of artificially preserving bodies shows up in archaeological records around the world. Now, a new study suggests that mummification dates back much earlier, to some of the first human ...

Machine-learning models can speed up the discovery of new materials by making predictions and suggesting experiments. But most models today only consider a few specific types of data or variables.

Scientists have developed a new multi-layered metalens design that could revolutionize portable optics in devices like phones, drones, and satellites. By stacking metamaterial layers instead of ...
