Siemens adds two levels of circular repair for automation devices
Advanced refurbishment and Premium remanufacturing offer different restoration levels for selected automation products.
Technology
How a molecule lets electrons sample a radium nucleus
Precision spectroscopy of radium monofluoride detected an electron-energy shift sensitive to nuclear magnetization, while symmetry tests remain future work.
What a virtual spectrometer can and cannot replace
SpectroGen predicts one spectroscopy modality from another, but generated spectra still require domain-specific validation and physical reference measurements.
Why manufactured metals never become atomically random
Simulations connect persistent chemical order in processed alloys to biased atomic swaps around moving dislocations.
How CRESt connects scientific literature, robots and catalyst tests
MIT’s multimodal platform explored more than 900 catalyst chemistries and 3,500 tests, while human researchers still handled most experimental debugging.
Preparing nickel crystals to watch material failure in 3D
An SiO2 buffer and focused X-ray exposure relaxed strain in dewetted nickel crystals enough for coherent-diffraction phase retrieval, preparing a model system for future corrosion imaging.
Counting particles correctly when their sizes vary
A particle suspension cannot be counted reliably by cubing its mean diameter when sizes vary; arithmetic mean particle volume removes that systematic bias.
One cryostat for the volt, ohm and ampere
A NIST prototype combines quantum voltage and resistance devices to realize three electrical units in one cryogenic system.
Measuring radioactivity from a microgram sample
Inkjet mass metrology and a cryogenic transition-edge sensor combine identification with a primary Am-241 activity measurement.
The optical pascal: measuring pressure with two colours of light
Two-frequency refractometry removes a persistent cavity-deformation error, while calibration and deployment remain separate engineering tasks.
Counting molecules that blur into one spot
The blinx Bayesian model uses fluorescence fluctuations to infer a probability distribution over molecular counts, while making uncertainty and experimental limits visible.
EZIE prepares to map auroral currents with three small satellites
Three CubeSats combine remote magnetic measurements with drag-controlled spacing to investigate polar electrical currents.
A synchrotron in the lab: mapping metal grains with 3D X-ray diffraction
A liquid-metal-jet source brings far-field 3D X-ray diffraction into the laboratory, mapping coarse titanium grains in a four-hour scan while preserving the limits of the validation.
Rydberg atoms turn ambient heat into a temperature measurement
Laser-cooled rubidium atoms probe ambient heat through changes in their excited energy states.
White Rabbit: sharing precise time across optical networks
Calibration, fibre links and open hardware connect CERN’s timing technology with wider research and industry.
GUSTO: the balloon observatory built to trace interstellar gas
A long-duration Antarctic balloon linked far-infrared detectors, polar winds and the study of star-forming gas.
Aeolus completes an assisted return to Earth
A final sequence of orbital manoeuvres guided ESA’s wind satellite towards its atmospheric reentry.
