Pump-Induced Stimulated Superradiant Smith-Purcell Radiation with Ultra-Narrow Linewidth

Chinese Academy of Sciences — Fri, 18 Apr 2025 10:35:11 EST

Free electron lasers have unique advantages of high power, wide frequency tunablility and et al, however, they face challenge in narrowing the spectral linewidth. Scientists in China proposed and realized the pump-induced stimulated superradiant Smith-Purcell radiation (PIS-SPR) and achieved an ultra-narrow spectral linewidth of 0.3 kHz at ~0.3 THz in a compact device.

Astroparticle Physics: Neutrinos Weigh Less Than 0.45 Electronvolts

Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) — Thu, 17 Apr 2025 06:25:18 EST

The international KArlsruhe TRItium Neutrino Experiment (KATRIN) at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) has once again surpassed its own achievements. The latest data establish an upper limit of 0.45 eV/c2 (equivalent to 8 x 10-37 kilograms) for the neutrino mass. With this result, KATRIN, which measures neutrino mass in the laboratory using a model-independent method, has once again set a world record. The researchers have published their results in the journal Science (DOI: 10.1126/science.adq9592).

A Smart Wearable for Ear-Based High-Precision Health Sensing

Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) — Thu, 17 Apr 2025 06:15:12 EST

Wearables such as smartwatches, fitness trackers, or data glasses have become an integral part of our everyday lives. They record health data, monitor your sleep, or calculate your calorie consumption. Researchers from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have developed the open-source platform "OpenEarable." It integrates a multitude of sensors into wireless earphones with the aim to enhance health measurements and safety applications in medicine, industry, and everyday life. The scientists are currently presenting their platform at Hannover Messe from March 31 to April 4.

Metamaterials: Highly Twisted Rods Store Large Amounts of Energy

Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) — Thu, 17 Apr 2025 04:40:53 EST

An international research team coordinated at KIT (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) has developed mechanical metamaterials with a high elastic energy density. Highly twisted rods that deform helically provide these metamaterials with a high stiffness and enable them to absorb and release large amounts of elastic energy. The researchers conducted simple compression experiments to confirm the initial theoretical results. Their findings have been published in the science journal Nature. (DOI: 10.1038/s41586-025-08658-z)
