Everything you need to know: Graduate program offers crash course in the politics of peer review
Jul 16, 2013 — The University of Leicester’s Journal of Physics Special Topics is kind of a downer. In perusing a single issue I discovered the following: The helicarrier — the flying aircraft carrier that’s home to a bunch of superspies in the...
Fluorescent Fingerprint Tag IDs ‘Hidden’ Prints
LEICESTER, England, July 3, 2013 — Criminals might want to think twice before touching anything, now that a new fluorescent tagging technique could yield higher-confidence identifications from latent fingerprints on metal surfaces.
Microscope Addresses the Need for Speed
LEICESTER, England, Aug. 28, 2012 — A technology used in projectors can create a high-resolution image 100 times faster than conventional microscopy equipment, which can be too slow to clearly document speedy biological processes.
Black Hole Devours Star, Blasts Light Beam at Earth
COVENTRY, England, June 22, 2011 — The flash from one of the biggest and brightest bangs yet recorded originated with a massive black hole at the center of a distant galaxy that appears to have ripped apart a star that wandered too close. Some 3.8 billion years later, astronomers at...
Photonics in Space
Dec 1, 2010 — What would we know about the universe without the aid of optics? A whole lot less than we do now, to be sure. Optics has always played a significant role in both manned and unmanned space missions, while astronomical study would be largely...
