Experiment reveals light rotating objects in a direction never seen before
An experiment conducted by LCN researchers in the Department of Physics, King’s College London, has revealed for the first time that light is capable of rotating objects in a new direction. Dr James Millen and Dr Francisco Rodríguez-Fortuño observed transverse orbital...
Researchers find new MASER material that could revolutionise imaging and sensing
Experts in the Department of Materials, Imperial College London, have found a new material that could redefine the use of room-temperature masers. Masers, the microwave version of lasers, are devices with the remarkable ability to amplify even the weakest electrical...
New Insights into Lipid Peroxidation and its Effects on Cell Signalling and Disease
A recent study published in Communications Chemistry has uncovered new insights into the process of lipid peroxidation and its effects on cell signalling and disease. Lipid peroxidation is a process in which the structure and mechanical behaviour of cell membranes is...
