Neutron stars are made out of cold ultra-dense matter. How this matter behaves is one of the biggest mysteries in modern nuclear physics. Researchers developed a new method for measuring the radius of ...

Researchers have developed a method capable of measuring the moisture content of agricultural products within one second using an electromagnetic wave. An object can be measured regardless of its size ...

Scientists have found a way to measure the lifetime of a neutron, a subatomic particle with a neutral charge, from space for the first time. They believe this new method, which involves measuring the ...

While it's important to keep crops irrigated, you certainly don't want to overwater them – particularly in regions where water is scarce. With that in mind, scientists have now developed a method of ...

Scientists have found a clever way to use traditional GPS satellite signals to measure snow depth as well as soil and vegetation moisture, a technique expected to benefit meteorologists, water ...

Compressing recovered fiber into a dense bale is almost always the most cost-effective way to supply paper mills with the secondary raw materials they need. The concern for mill buyers has long been ...

The American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists (AATCC) has introduced a new test method to measure accumulated condensation on a fabric, calling it an "important step" to drive sustainable ...

Neutron stars, when they merge, should create an electromagnetic counterpart if they don't create a black hole right away, as light and particles will be expelled due to internal reactions in the ...

This is a cosmic-ray neutron soil moisture sensor that was used to measure the average soil moisture of the entire watershed, Chihuahuan Desert, New Mexico. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not ...
