Can a global pandemic affect temperatures on the Moon? A 2024 study linked worldwide lockdowns with a drop in heat radiation reaching the Moon from Earth – but now scientists say that wasn't actually ...

The impact of a Bennu-sized object — a medium-sized asteroid — on Earth's land surface would generate a powerful shockwave, earthquakes, wildfires and thermal radiation, leave a gaping crater and ...

In this video we'll take a look at thermal radiation, one of the three modes of heat transfer along with conduction and convection. We'll start by covering electromagnetic waves, the Stefan-Boltzmann ...

When it’s a challenge to capture a suspicious home issue with a conventional camera that relies on visible light, consider ...

Recently, the group of Prof. Labao Zhang of Nanjing University, together with the group of researcher Haiyong Gan of the National Institute of Metrology, China, have developed a new thermal radiation ...

Nonreciprocal thermal radiation is an emerging area of research that explores how certain materials can emit and absorb thermal radiation in a way that does not follow traditional laws of ...

Jan. 30, 2025 — Flexible perovskite solar cells are promising for lightweight and versatile applications but their sensitivity to humidity and temperature poses a challenge to long-term durability.

When you're in a car, train or bus, do you choose a seat to avoid being in the sun or do you like the sunny side? You can ...

A new way to measure the temperatures of objects by studying the effect of their black-body radiation on Rydberg atoms has ...
