Improved telescope sees through atmosphere with pinpoint sharpness
A sharp view of the starry sky is difficult, because the atmosphere constantly distorts the image. TU/e researcher Roger Hamelinck developed a new type of telescope mirror, which quickly corrects the image. His prototypes are required for future large telescopes, but also gives old telescopes a sharper view. The prototype of Hamelinck’s mirror system in one of its assembly steps. ... Read More »
Nanotech, off-the-shelf lets doctors camera see cancer cells
Researchers at Rice University hope technology can be used in routine cancer screenings. Researchers have added nanoechnology to an off-the-shelf digital camera to help doctors distinguish healthy cells from cancerous cells in the human body. Rice University scientists said Thursday that doctors can use the souped-up camera to see cancerous cells on the camera’s LCD monitor. Targeted nanoparticles deliver fluorescent ... Read More »
