The fire destroyed many parts of the plant, but no one was injured and there were no damaging effects on the environment. Financial damage is estimated at millions of Euros. The plant was closed over the holiday season but operations at the plant continue. Police are currently … [Read more...]
Cooled-Down Plasma Could Lead to Safer, More Effective Nanoparticle Detection
Research conducted at Tufts’ University predicts cooled-down plasma could be a safer way of sensing dangerous airborne nanoparticles. Due to their small size, nanoparticles – present in a wide range of everyday objects ranging from vehicle exhaust to makeup and food packaging and even to clothing – can easily pass into the human body (specifically, through cell membranes) and … [Read more...]

Transformation Optics Used to Analyze Van Der Waals Forces in 3D Plasmonic Systems
Scientists at Imperial College London in London, England have devised a novel way of analyzing tricky 3D plasmonic systems affected by nonlocality – through transformation optics. Though van der Waals forces are relatively easy to calculate in parallel surfaces farther apart than 10 nm, they become very difficult to calculate in tiny distances of less than 5 nm. Furthermore, … [Read more...]
