Researchers Use "Designer" Quantum Dots to Achieve Light Amplification in Nanocrystals

Scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory have demonstrated how light can be successfully amplified using electrically stimulated films of quantum dots – the chemically synthesized semiconductor nanocrystals. This breakthrough development represents an important step towards solution-processible laser diodes.

MIT’s Pocket-Sized Cosmic Ray Muon Detector Tracks Charged Particles in Atmosphere

At any given moment, the Earth’s atmosphere is showered with high-energy cosmic rays that have been blasted from supernovae and other astrophysical phenomena far beyond the Solar System. When cosmic rays collide with the Earth’s atmosphere, they decay into muons — charged particles that are slightly heavier than an electron.

ESO's Very Large Telescope Captures First Interstellar Asteroid

For the first time ever astronomers have studied an asteroid that has entered the Solar System from interstellar space. Observations from ESO’s Very Large Telescope in Chile and other observatories around the world show that this unique object was traveling through space for millions of years before its chance encounter with our star system.
