How fiber-optic fire detection systems save lives in our tunnels
Have you ever driven through a tunnel wondering what would happen if a fire suddenly broke out? Read more
Supercontinuum lasers help understand and predict the weather
In recent years, the existence of large-scale and long-living convection patterns was reported. Such superstructures dominate the global heat and mass transport and can cause extreme fluctuations in the flow. Do superstructures aid and abet extreme weather events? This is still poorly understood. Read more
