Small Quantum Sensor Detects Radio Waves In 3D
Modern battlefields are bathed in radio waves for communications, radar, remote control of drones, and signal jamming to…
When Italian and German researchers modeled a square-meter array of 1,482 neodymium magnets, the simulation showed roughly a fifth of incoming low-energy solar protons being deflected — suggesting a potential way for deep-space crews to reduce some of the mass they currently carry for radiation shielding.
