The latest Northern Lights forecast means the aurora borealis may be seen in the continental U.S. tonight after space weather ...

Researchers from Oakland University have made a significant breakthrough in the field of optical materials, unveiling the ...

Diamonds are forever and they are a girl’s best friend. They are also among a class of materials known as ultrawide-bandgap ...

New research suggests moderate sun exposure offers health benefits, challenging traditional protection guidelines and changing public perception.

Jupiter's Great Red Spot storm, which usually appears dark-red, can be seen shining a lurid blue color in an ultraviolet ...

But it didn’t work at higher frequencies. According to their math, as the frequency of emitted radiation tended toward the ultraviolet range, the output energy would have to be infinite ...

Ultrawide-bandgap semiconductors—such as diamond—are promising for next-generation electronics due to a larger energy gap ...

Images captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory have revealed that "coronal loops" give off subtle flashes of ...

UV radiation is a known carcinogen for human skin. In addition to cancer induction, erythema (sunburn), and skin aging are also known effects of ultraviolet skin exposure. Because the biological ...

Most ozone-depleting substances also contribute to global warming. By reining in these substances and protecting carbon sinks ...

The data used to create the image is from a Hubble Space Telescope project to capture and map Jupiter's superstorm system.

"Though the storm appears red to the human eye, in this ultraviolet image, it appears darker because high-altitude haze particles absorb light at these wavelengths," NASA wrote. "The reddish ...
