Worthington Industries, Inc., announced its cryogenics business in the pressure cylinders segment is purchasing the assets of the global CryoScience business of Taylor Wharton Cryogenics, including a manufacturing facility in Theodore AL. Worthington will also acquire certain other intellectual property and manufacturing assets of Taylor Wharton focused on the cryogenic...

Recently, the James Webb Space Telescope's "pathfinder telescope," or "Pathfinder," completed its second super-cold optical test. This marked the first check of specialized optical test equipment designed to illuminate the telescope's optics through to the instrument focal plains, as well as the procedures used to operate this test equipment.

After the successful restart of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and its first months of data taking with proton collisions at a new energy frontier, the LHC is moving to a new phase, with the first lead-ion collisions of Run 2 at an energy about twice as high as...

The Cryogenic Treatment Database, CSA's resource for research and information in the field of cryogenic treatment, has been updated. We encourage you to visit the database and share this information with researchers and others in the field.

Investigation into the recent death of Chelsea Ake-Salvacion in a liquid nitrogen cryotherapy chamber at RejuvenIce in Henderson NV points to oxygen deprivation as the cause of death. In the wake of this tragic accident, authorities are calling for steps to regulate the use of cryotherapy, which has recently been...

A team led by scientists at the US Dept. of Energy (DOE)’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory observed a new type of "charge density wave" after combining powerful magnetic pulses with some of the brightest X-rays on the planet. The resulting 3-D effect appears closely linked to high temperature superconductivity, though...
