Saint-Gobain Seals has released a special technical white paper for engineers and manufacturers in the space industry titled “Sealing Solutions in Critical Cryogenic Applications: Going Beyond Leakage Rate,” describing key as well as overlooked factors related to seal selection for core systems in extreme environments such as cryogenic fuel tanks...

A new Guinness World Record for the longest multi-rotor flight time was achieved by South Korean company MetaVista (CSA CSM) using Intelligent Energy’s 800W fuel cell power. The quadcopter drone flew for 12 hours, 7 minutes and 5 seconds using liquid hydrogen to fuel the module.

For the first time, Yale physicists using liquid helium directly observed quantum behavior within the vibrations of a liquid body. A great deal of ongoing research is currently devoted to discovering and exploiting quantum effects in the motion of macroscopic objects made of solids and gases, so this new experiment...

The US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) program announced 70 awards to be distributed to students at 52 universities in the US that focus on doctoral degrees in physical sciences. The aim of the awards program is to prepare graduate students for science, technology,...

Physicists in Russia recently investigated the behavior of particles in dusty plasma at a temperature below 2 K, an experiment that revealed nanoclusters forming in the plasma and the synthesis of polymer fibers taking place at extremely low temperatures. According to the team, such results can be used to create...

Researchers using an extremely fast electron camera at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have made the first high-definition “movie” of ring-shaped molecules breaking open in response to light.
