Laser-Induced Avalanche Breakdown Detects Radioactive Material Remotely
Laser-Induced Avalanche Breakdown Detects Radioactive Material Remotely
A new method to identify radioactive material employs an IR laser beam to detect shielded material from a distance. The method, developed by physicists at the University of Maryland, improves upon current detection technologies that require close proximity to the radioactive material.

New Imaging Technique Could Help Diagnose, Monitor Retinal Disease
Researchers at the U.S. National Eye Institute (NEI) believe their adaptive optics indocyanine green (AO-ICG) imaging technique could be used to help diagnose and monitor the progression of eye diseases, and to preclinically detect cellular-level damage to the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) by nondestructively charting changes in the fluorescent RPE mosaic over varying periods of time.

Inverse-Designed Metastructures Operate with Light to Perform ‘Photonic Calculus'
Inverse-Designed Metastructures Operate with Light to Perform ‘Photonic Calculus'
A research team at the University of Pennsylvania has demonstrated a metamaterial device that can function as an analog computer. The researchers demonstrated that specially designed nanophotonic structures can take input waveforms encoded as complex mathematical functions, manipulate them, and provide an output that is the integral of the functions.

Measuring Quantum Back Action Could Improve Sensitivity of Gravitational-Wave Detectors
Measuring Quantum Back Action Could Improve Sensitivity of Gravitational-Wave Detectors
Researchers at Louisiana State University have defined a broadband, off-resonance measurement of quantum radiation pressure noise (QRPN) in the audio band, at frequencies relevant to gravitational-wave detectors. Their work could lead to methods to improve the sensitivity of gravitational-wave detectors by developing techniques to mitigate imprecision in back action measurements.
