Infrared vibrational spectroscopy at BESSY II can be used to create high-resolution maps of molecules inside live cells and ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have performed infrared observations of a planetary debris disk ...

IR spectroscopy, or infrared spectroscopy, is an analytical technique used to identify and study chemical substances based on their interaction with infrared radiation. It measures the absorption of ...

When it comes to science, a simple observation can upend everything you think you know, such is the case with one star ...

A spectrometer that directly detects the vibrational “fingerprint” of molecules offers a sensitive new way of deducing a material’s chemical make-up. The device, which was developed by researchers in ...

Coblentz left no stone unturned – he measured spectra in transmission and in reflection. He even measured the emission spectra of heated minerals, echoing Robert Bunsen and Kirchhoff’s observation of ...

Infrared (IR) spectroscopy, alternatively referred to as vibrational spectroscopy, is an analytical technique used in chemical and physical sciences. This spectroscopic technique measures how samples ...

A novel spectroscopic method developed at Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan, enables highly sensitive analysis of molecules ...

Infrared spectrometers are expensive and powerful instruments scientists use to analyze the chemical makeup of a sample, and a new research project has demonstrated what this technology might look ...

Infrared light was discovered 2 as a result of the problem it caused William Herschel while he was making astronomical observations of the Sun — it created a disturbing heating sensation in his eye ...
