Sentences with phrase «x-ray wave fields»

By means of standing X-ray wave fields, they were able to scan both graphene and substrate at a precision of a few millionths of a micrometre — less than a tenth of the radius of an atom.

Not exact matches

These high temperatures and the black hole's extreme magnetic field will excite G2's component particles, causing them to radiate and bathe the mysterious region in visible light, X-rays and radio waves.

As early as 2021 it will be joined by the Einstein Probe, a wide - field x-ray sentinel for transient phenomena such as gamma ray bursts and the titanic collisions of neutron stars or black holes that generate gravitational waves.

Combined, these undulating fields are known as electromagnetic waves, and give us visible light, as well as invisible radio waves, microwaves and X-rays.

We know that for energies of modest to intermediate energy, the culprit or the source of the acceleration appears to be the shock front that surrounds a [an] expanding supernova blast wave; that is to say, we have a star that undergoes a massive cosmic explosion [and] drives a strong shock wave out into the surrounding interstellar medium, and the gas around the shock wave, and all the magnetic fields associated with it are capable of accelerating particles to very high energies; and also incidentally magnifying and amplifying the magnetic field associated with that shock front and giving a lot of x-ray emission and radio emission and so on, and so we've understood that.

The image is a colorized composite of low - energy x-rays (red) showing debris and high - energy x-rays (blue) showing the blast wave, plus the visible field of stars around it.
