... optical fibers. The fibers were mounted on a scanning stage so that the pulses could be measured at many locations around the focus.
The pulses were crossed and an interference pattern was recorded ...
... GRACE satellites from 2003-2007, as well as unique processing and analysis techniques, Luthcke and colleagues were able to measure the mass of the glaciers every 10 days across an area spanning 18,919 ...
Scientists have used satellite data to make the most precise measurements to date of changes in the mass of mountain glaciers in the Gulf of Alaska, a region expected to be a significant contributor ...
... of asteroids that are too small or too far away for traditional techniques, increasing the number of asteroids that can be measured by a factor of several hundred. This method takes advantage of the ...
... satellite instruments started measuring aerosols with polarized light. Cairns' technique measures polarization more accurately, integrates more longwave and shortwave polarization information into the ...
Putting a new spin on an old technique, Anne M. Hofmeister, Ph.D., research professor of ... to employ such a laser for geoscience research.
Her technique, laser-flash analysis, provides much more ...
Putting a new spin on an old technique, a research professor of earth and planetary sciences has revolutionized scientists' understanding of heat transport in the Earth's crust, the outermost solid ...
... cellular forces as assemblies of living cells reorganize themselves into tissues. The new technique allows researchers to gauge how cells' minute mechanical forces affect cellular behavior and cell ...
Researchers have developed an easy method of measuring the volume of the placenta during pregnancy.
Lasers that emit ultrashort pulses of light are used for numerous applications, but the quality of the results is limited by distortions caused by lenses and other optical components that are part of ...
... students Yang Liu and Hariharan Subramanian and postdoctoral fellow Prabhakar Pradhan. The new technique measures nanoscopic changes to the interior architecture of cells -- changes that may signal ...
... in plaque than patients with elastomeric orthodontic brackets. The OHSU team also found that a biochemical technique measuring ATP- (adenosine triphosphate-) driven bioluminescence could be a useful ...
... samples from the moraines.
The researchers analyzed the samples using a surface exposure dating technique -- measuring the tiny amounts of the chemical isotope beryllium-10 that is formed as cosmic ...
... batteries necessary.
The converted Scion xB will serve as a test bed for developing smart power management techniques, measuring battery lifetimes and refining conversion techniques.
The ...
