Until today, skin, brain, and all tissues of the human body were difficult to observe in detail with an optical microscope, ...

Atomic-scale detail is now possible with photons, thanks to a cooled-down silver tip and a clever use of plasmonics.

But even if physicists never prove Einstein wrong, Hossenfelder says, experiments like MICROSCOPE are still important. “These tests aren’t just about the equivalence principle,” she says.

The MICROSCOPE experiment was designed to test Einstein's theory of general relativity. (Image credit: ONERA) The team's results, which are the culmination of 20 years of research, revealed that ...

The MICROSCOPE team published preliminary results in 2017, showing no signs of violation at a sensitivity of one part in 10 14 over the two and a half years the experiment was in orbit.

That’s much better than other quantum microscope experiments that have only managed to boost resolution by about 35%. A comparison of image quality in "classical" (left) ...

These experiment proposals, including one applied by a foreign user and five from Hong Kong and Macao users, mainly involve magnetic materials, quantum materials, lithium battery materials, shale ...
