“On September 2nd the LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo Collaboration announced the discovery of GW190521. T, the most massive gravitational wave binary observed to date.” This was the statement released to the press by the scientific institutions, regarding a May 21st 2019 recorded event. This ripple across space-time has propagated for more than 7-billion … Continue reading
Fluorescence In-Situ Hybridization (FISH) filter sets from Chroma Technology improve the most important image characteristics when viewing FISH samples so that you can score slides more easily, reduce uncertainty, reduce eye strain, save time, and increase throughput. This group of filters includes single band sets as well as several multi-band filter sets. These are useful … Continue reading
The gem 561 1 W from Laser Quantum is an efficient, high power yellow laser. This laser provides market leading power with an ultra-precise, TEM00 beam specification. This enables uniform energy distribution or tight focus at this key wavelength for single molecule localization microscopy. The gem’s novel power delivery architecture and innovative wall plug efficiency … Continue reading
Photonis is the only mass-producer of the 16-mm image intensifier tube. These tubes are 40% smaller and lighter than standard 18-mm tubes, allowing for a significant reduction in system weight and size. Benefits of the Image Intensifier Tube 4G include: Best Detection, Recognition and Identification (DRI) range Ultra-fast auto-gating Smallest halo Spectral range from 400 … Continue reading
The title of the next installment of ID Quantique’s webinar series is “NIR Fluorescence Lifetime Spectroscopy for Nano-Materials Characterization and Biology”. This presentation will now occur on Tuesday 13 October 2020 from 16:00 to 16:45 CET. This webinar will describe a method at the heart of many applications: time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) and its … Continue reading
Challenge Since 1916, the existence of gravitational waves has been predicted. However, even Albert Einstein never dreamed that such phenomenally small events could actually be observed and measured. Nearly a century later, in 2002, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) started looking for these distortions in the fabric of space-time. But nearly a decade of … Continue reading
