Insights into how mixing layers scatter sound waves could further understanding of acoustic sources in open-jet wind tunnel ...

Neutron scattering is a powerful analytical technique that utilizes neutrons to probe the structure, dynamics, and properties of materials at the atomic and nanoscale level. It provides unique ...

Small angle X-ray scattering, or SAXS, is an experimental method where the intensity of the scattered X-rays is measured as a function of the scattering angle. The information obtained in a SAXS ...

Schematics of the all-optical nonlinear Compton scattering experiment showing laser-driven electron acceleration, electron-laser collision, and Compton scattering to produce gamma rays. In a ...
