How-to guides

One of the first images from the DECam (the half-gigapixel camera of the Dark Energy Survey) showing the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1365.
Dark Energy Survey (DES) First Light
The image depicts chemically modified DNA translocating through a nanoscale pore in silicon nitride.
DNA through a Solid State Nanopore
Bio-optical properties of cephalopods and the cellular and biochemical mechanisms of dynamic camouflage.
Bioluminescence
Large Hadron Collider employs superconducting dipole magnets like those shown to provide a magnetic field almost 100,000 times stronger than the earth's magnetic field.
Dipole magnets at the Large Hadron Collider
Spatiotemporal heterogenous dynamics in air-fluidized grains near jamming.
Air-fluidized grains
Jamming is the phenomenon wherein a system that normally flows much like a liquid (as with foams) become solid--like when subjected to shear stress.
Jamming and the Glass Transition
A synthetic peptide candidate that can be used for single molecule electronic measurements.
Molecular Electronics
Supersymmetric vacua of the heterotic string and M-theory are explored through the study of complex algebraic geometry.
Vector Bundles on Calabi-Yau Manifolds
An event captured by the ATLAS detector in the search for a Higgs boson decaying into two Z bosons, one of which goes into a pair of electrons and two muons (the two tracks shown in red).
Large Hadron Collider - ATLAS Higgs candidate event
The image shows an example of peptides that assemble into a tubular structure surrouding single-walled carbon nanotubes.
Proteins on Carbon Nanotubes
The Dark Energy Survey (DES) uses a 570-Megapixel digital camera at the Blanco 4-meter telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in the Chilean Andes.
Dark Energy Survey
Chemical sensors using single-walled carbon nanotubes wrapped with single-stranded DNA adsorbed to the nanotube's outer wall.
