Ultraviolet (UV) light is an electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength from 400 nm to 100 nm, shorter than that of visible light but longer than X-rays. Though usually invisible, under ...

Plants are continuously exposed to solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which, while potentially damaging, also functions as an essential environmental signal. The responses to UV radiation encompass a ...

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have detected unexpected ultraviolet radiation around five young protostars in the Ophiuchus molecular cloud. Since infant stars are not expected to ...

Deep ultraviolet (DUV) laser generation has emerged as a critical field due to its utility in a diverse range of applications including high-precision lithography, spectroscopy and ultrafast science.

You may have certainly enjoyed an authentic honey, wine, or olive oil. Yet, each of these foods are at risk for fraud. To mitigate and investigate food fraud, researchers use analytical methods, such ...

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has identified a rare stellar phenomenon called the “blue lurker” in the M67 star cluster. Located 2,800 light-years away, this star is part of a triple-star system and ...

A new five-minute test developed at the University of Illinois can rapidly assess cementitious materials, replacing the seven-day industry standard. The test uses colorimetry and a low-cost camera to ...
