Digital Holographic Microscopy Enhances Cytometry and Histology In recent years, quantitative phase imaging (QPI) has been continuously improved for purposes of high-resolution, label-free quantitative microscopy. Label-free imaging has received increased attention in the last decade as a minimally invasive way to observe proteins and cells, and to study the behavior and properties of biological specimens with minimized modification and sample preparation....
Newspace Launches Hyperspectral Imaging into Orbit Half a century ago, the first Space Age was in full swing, funded by large government budgets and fueled by economic-political pressure to dominate space exploration. Today this movement has evolved...
Laser Processing Brings Manufacturing to Next Level Lasers are used in many industrial sectors for a wide variety of processes, including drilling, cutting, welding, and scribing, to optimize manufacturing and ensure high-quality components. Prices...

New Light-Activated Metal Compound Kills Cancer Energy Source A team led by University of Warwick researchers is using light to activate a cancer-killing compound that attacks a vital energy source in cancer cells. This technique could be used not only to treat cancer, but also to help reduce side effects of treatment and potentially immunize against developing the disease in the future. “There is an increasing interest in reducing the side effects of...
2019 Nobel Prize in Physics Awarded The 2019 Nobel Prize in physics recognizes three individuals for their contributions to understanding Earth’s place within the known universe. Half the prize goes to astrophysicist James...
Graphene-Based Measurement Technique Boosts Optical Resolution Researchers at the University of Göttingen have developed a new technique that exploits the unusual properties of graphene to optically measure extremely small distances — to the order of...
Spectrometer Measures Effects of Photon Momentum in Strong-Field Ionization Einstein received the Nobel Prize for explaining the photoelectric effect — that, simply put, a single atom is irradiated with light. Einstein believed that light consists of photons that transfer...
HUBER+SUHNER to Acquire BKtel Group HUBER+SUHNER have signed a purchase agreement to acquire German fiber optic specialist BKtel for approximately $50 million. The deal is subject to the approval of the German Bundeskartellamt (Federal...

The weight of a whale on a visual scale How do you lift a whale? The ques- tion has been asked by many re-searchers for generations. Better yet: How do you weigh a whale? Even better: Why would you weigh one? Danish scientists from the Aarhus Institute of Advanced Studies (AIAS), along with U.S. scientists from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), thought it was time those questions were answered. And as it turns out, the...
