Adulterated honey is the second-most common type of food fraud globally, impacting our health and safety as well as biodiversity. A team in the U.K. is working to alleviate the problem using a spectroscopy-machine learning approach.

Using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and computational modeling, researchers in Brazil are getting a closer look at glass intermediate oxides to ultimately explore in-depth glass composition and its effects on structure and functionality.

Researchers in Maryland have designed and built brighter on-chip optical frequency combs based on dissipative Kerr solitons, in efforts to find out just what happens when those combs meet weak lasers.
