PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - The universe is full of waves, and they are not all created equally. Some are mechanical, and others are electromagnetic, even though they are all energy! Not all waves are created ...

Researchers unlock the mystery of bound states in the continuum using compact mechanical systems. A joint research team from POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology) and Jeonbuk National ...

Dark matter may be a quantum mechanical wave that literally holds galaxies together. Quantum mechanics is our best theory of the fundamental nature of reality, but it's usually only distinguishable ...

Everyday life involves the three dimensions or 3D — along an X, Y and Z axis, or up and down, left and right, and forward and back. But, in recent years scientists like Guoliang Huang, the Huber and ...

A recent study published in an online issue of Physical Review Research examines the connections between the different properties of light, specifically pertaining to whether light acts as a wave or ...

Converting wave motion into electricity holds enormous potential as a renewable energy source, but a lack of standardized prototyping is holding back technological development. A research team led by ...

Topological wave structures are wave patterns that exhibit specific topological properties, or in other words, properties that remain unvaried under smooth deformations of a physical system. These ...

The study of earthquakes called Seismology, relies on the fact that different materials within the Earth react differently to stress. When a fault slips, energy radiates outward from the focus (the ...

(b) Displacement field within a single particle as a function of contact position (μ). (The dashed box highlights the displacement pattern associated with the polarization-protected BIC.) A joint ...
