Researchers have found that a swirling water vortex can force opposing waves to form rotating lines of stillness across an ...

Quantum physics once shocked scientists by revealing that particles can behave like waves—and now, that strange behavior has ...

Shock waves should not be shocking—engineers across scientific fields need to be able to precisely predict how the instant and strong pressure changes initiate and dissipate to prevent damage. Now, ...

Waves are one of the most familiar features of Earth’s oceans, shaped by wind, gravity, and the properties of water itself.

Scientists have made the first experimental observation of matter wave diffraction in a short-lived electron-positron atom.

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

At the smallest scales of nature, the rules of the world shift in ways that can feel unsettling and beautiful at the same time. Matter no longer behaves like solid objects moving along clear paths.

Engineers need to precisely predict how instant and strong pressure changes initiate and dissipate to prevent damage during rocket launches, for example. A team from YOKOHAMA National University has ...
