CONSTRUCTED. >> WE ARE IN BLAIR COUNTY AND THIS IS THE PLANT RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING THE BEAMS HEADED TO FERN HOLLOW. THIS IS ONE OF THEM. THESE ARE HIGH-PERFORMANCE CONCRETE BEAMS. IT IS ABOUT 155 ...

The key innovation of our propulsion concept is the unique coupling of a neutral particle beam with a laser beam, a scheme which nearly eliminates thermal expansion and diffraction during beam ...

This calculated diffraction image shows how forked diffraction gratings shape the atoms' wave function into a vortex. (Courtesy: Science/AAAS) A wave-like property previously only seen in beams of ...

MILWAUKEE -- Steel beams that will eventually make up part of the new Milwaukee Bucks arena arrived by boat at the Port of Milwaukee Monday, November 14th. The beams, many of which are over 50-feet ...

Scientists may have discovered how to create a real-life tractor beam using electromagnetic radiation that can draw particles toward it. The result is something very akin to the tractor beam seen in ...

Collisions in high-energy ion beams reduce the beam intensity and can be remedied by extra focusing devices or the use of low-density beams. However, physicists predicted 20 years ago that in a ...

In a discovery that challenges conventional optics, scientists have managed to make a laser beam cast its own shadow—a feat previously thought impossible, as light typically passes through other light ...
