Newcastle disease virus, an avian paramyxovirus that infects more than 250 animal species ranging from poultry to mammals, builds conspicuous cytoplasmic inclusion bodies during infection. These ...

Researchers have developed a revolutionary microscope that uses an incredibly powerful laser to make previously invisible ...

Scientists uncovered a surprising reaction inside muscle cells that could explain why a popular cholesterol medication ...

Recent experiments are making both kinds of structure more accessible, while showing why they must first be described ...

Researchers used powerful lasers to turn plastic into nanodiamonds about 3 nanometers wide, then recovered them intact with a ...

Nowadays big advances are made by scaling up—think more chips packed into ever-bigger data centers. But as we near the ...

Stanford chemists have built a microscope that images the inside of living cells at about 120 nanometers without any ...

In 1955, Professor of Physics Erwin W. Müller became the first person to see an atom. Using a field ion microscope of his own invention—a landmark advance in scientific instrumentation that magnified ...

As of August 31, the instrument that twice broke the world record for microscope resolution is now commercially available to any semiconductor or materials research lab that needs it. Thermo Fisher ...

Electron microscopes are used wherever particularly small details need to be imaged. But from a strictly physical point of view, every electron in a conventional electron microscope represents a ...

Three-dimensional atomic arrangements in nanoscale regions are essential information for the development of nanoscale devices and novel functional materials. Until now, however, there has been no ...

In this artist’s conception, an electron wave packet (blue) lies at the boundary between space and time. Lasting only attoseconds, an electron flash is generated between the tip of the scanning ...
