In the quirky quantum world, particles can be affected by forces that they never directly encounter. A classic example is the Aharonov–Bohm (AB) effect, where electrons are affected by a magnetic ...

Today’s 3D integrated circuit (3D-IC) technology is the culmination of 40 years of research in universities and laboratories scattered across the globe. Beginning with dynamic random-access memory ...

This image is a simulation of a kind of acoustic wave called a Rayleigh-Bloch wave. The stripes of light and dark areas represent the “peaks" and “troughs" of the waves and are shaped by their ...

Time variations of (black) zonal and (red) meridional winds along trajectories of LODEWAVE 3. Solid lines represent LODEWAVE data, while dashed lines represent PANSY radar data at an altitude of 18.5 ...

Cocoons of debris around dying stars could shake ripples in spacetime unlike any astronomers have ever seen. “This is a potential source of gravitational waves that has never been investigated before, ...

They typically tested a small selection of metal AM parts — often coupons, demo brackets or simple manifolds — and asked a ...

What does a rogue wave look like? Watch what happens to this buoy. A simulation from MarineLabs shows a buoy off Vancouver Island in British Columbia in November 2020 that caught a 57-foot rogue wave, ...
