With the initial images from each of the instruments aboard ESA's EarthCARE satellite now in hand, it's time to reveal how ...

Because no particles are involved, radiation can work through the vacuum of space. This is why we can still feel the heat of the Sun even though it is 150 million km away from the Earth.

A thermal camera can see where heat is escaping and give you the information you need to make your home cosier and cheaper to ...

Fusion energy has the potential to be an effective clean energy source, as its reactions generate incredibly large amounts of ...

A team from the IOF has developed a cost-effective thermal imaging camera for road traffic applications. The novel infrared camera operates in the wavelength range of 8 to 14 µm, which is precisely ...

City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) researchers have made a remarkable scientific breakthrough in developing ...

As autonomous vehicles continue to evolve, ensuring their safety in low-visibility conditions has become increasingly critical. A team from Fraunhofer IOF is addressing this challenge with the ...

It is radiated as photons, according to new experiments by researchers at Aalto University Finland in collaboration with colleagues from Spain and the US who used a thermal radiation detector known as ...

Radioactive materials are elements that spontaneously break apart, or “decay,” into lighter elements over time. Radiation is ...

From the discovery of gravity to the first mission to defend Earth from an asteroid, here are the most important physics ...

Solar radiation penetrates the glass during daylight hours and heats the masonry wall. This wall then slowly releases the stored heat into the building during the cooler nighttime hours ...
