Barrel Balloon Research Suggests Electromagnetic Waves Negatively Affect Earth
A NASA-sponsored research team from Dartmouth demonstrated that plasma waves pounding the planet’s radiation belts are responsible for distributing charged particles into the atmosphere. This type of solar activity can fluctuate and disrupt communication systems, GPS satellites, manned space exploration and power grids. The research team frequently studies the Van Allen … [Read more...]
Spellcheck Increases Electromagnetic Fields Emitted during Computer Activity
Electronic fields emitted by computers during use exposes an individuals’ activity, raising issues concerning privacy. Side-channel signals are easily collected by antennas and reveal data through analysis. A group of researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology have been redesigning hardware and software for the past three years that will prevent electronic fields and … [Read more...]
New Multichannel Ultrasound Platform Offers Customizable Experience
German scientists have developed a multichannel ultrasound platform that can be adapted to fit a variety of different applications. Typically, ultrasound systems – for example, medical sonograms, submarine sonars, and more – are so specialized that they cannot be used outside of their intended purpose. However, in a recent press release from Fraunhofer-Gessellschaft, … [Read more...]
‘Electrosensitives’ Congregate in Wi-Fi Quiet Zone in West Virginia
A national radio quiet zone in Green Bank, West Virginia, limits transmissions to protect a government telescope. This telescope, known as the National Radio Astronomy Observatory's Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope, is the world’s largest fully steerable radio telescope. The telescope can pick up radio waves from space that are weak and difficult to identify. “The Federal … [Read more...]
