A pioneering camera and spectrometer that will fly aboard NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has completed cryogenic testing designed to mimic the harsh conditions it will experience in space.

Scientists have reached a crucial milestone that could lead to a new class of materials with useful electronic properties.

Physicists are finally closing in on dark matter, the elusive substance thought to make up most of the matter in the universe. Either that, or they’re being misled by some unknown source of error.

Wiring systems powered by highly efficient superconductors have long been a dream of science, but researchers have faced such practical challenges as finding pliable and cost-effective materials. Now researchers at Tel Aviv University (TAU) have found a way to make an old idea new with the next generation of superconductors.

We regret to report that Professor Albert Lacaze passed away August 5 at the age of 87.

Dr. Randall Barron, professor emeritus of mechanical engineering at Louisiana Tech, and Dr. Brian Barron, lecturer in mathematics and statistics at Louisiana Tech, have completed “Design for Thermal Stresses” – a college-level engineering textbook that provides design tools that allow engineers to understand and alleviate potential problems involving thermal stresses.
