Researchers at the University of Tokyo and Chuo University have proposed a strategy to identify light dark matter using a ...

Engineers at Tufts University have created and demonstrated flexible thread-based sensors that can measure movement of the neck, providing data on the direction, angle of rotation and degree of ...

Piezoresistive (diaphragm-based) differential pressure sensors based on silicon comprise a thin silicon diaphragm in which resistors (connected together in a Wheatstone bridge) are lodged. If there is ...

Researchers at the Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar, a branch of the Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City, conduct a wide range of biomedical research projects focused on everything ...

Our system's noise level, due to the Brownian motion of the suspended mirror, is one of the smallest in the world." Development of such a gravity sensor will pave the way for a new class of ...

A magnetometer is a device that measures magnetism: the direction, strength, or relative change of a magnetic field at a ...
