Candle flames, cars, and airplanes emit harmful gases and particles, which are formed through highly complex processes involving extremely fast reactions and often transient flow conditions. To better understand these processes, scientists from the USA and Europe developed the fastest 2D planar imaging system.

Since the early 2000s, optical frequency combs have had a major impact on science and technology. Miniaturization onto photonic chips is important for their deployment outside laboratory settings. Towards this goal, Song et al., demonstrated octave-spanning soliton frequency combs on the thin-film lithium niobate photonic platform.

Reconfigurable Simultaneous Lightwave Information and Power Transfer System with MIMO Configuration
Chinese Academy of Sciences

A SLIPT system using a MIMO-based configuration significantly enhances data transmission and energy harvesting. This approach combines space- and time-splitting, enabling high data rates and efficient power transfer. The system operates in either single PD or quadrant PD mode, adapting to various conditions and requirements.

Advancing on-chip Kerr optical parametric oscillation towards covering the green gap
Chinese Academy of Sciences

Green-gap lasing is a grand challenge that nonlinear nanophotonics has promise to address. Our research advances this by using Kerr optical parametric oscillation in silicon nitride microrings, pumped with a tunable 780 nm laser, to access the entire green gap (532-633 nm).

Center for Astrophysics | Harvard and Smithsonian

Since the 1960s, astronomers have wondered how the Sun's supersonic "solar wind," a stream of energetic particles that flows out into the Solar System, continues to receive energy once it leaves the Sun. Now, thanks to a lucky line up of two spacecraft currently in space studying the Sun, they may have discovered the answer.

New NASA Sonifications Listen to the Universe's Past
Chandra X-ray Observatory

Text, images, and video: https://chandra.si.edu/photo/2024/sonify9/ A quarter of a century ago, NASA released the “first light” images from the agency’s Chandra X-ray Observatory. This introduction to the world of Chandra’s high-resolution X-ray imaging capabilities included an unprecedented view of Cassiopeia A, the remains of an exploded star located about 11,000 light-years from Earth. Over the years, Chandra’s views of Cassiopeia A have become some of the telescope’s best-known images. To mark the anniversary of this milestone, new sonifications of three images — including Cassiopeia A (Cas A) — are being released. Sonification is a process that translates astronomical data into sound, similar to how digital data are more routinely turned into images. This translation process preserves the science of the data from its original digital state but provides an alternative pathway to experiencing the data.
