When waves are moving across ice-covered seas, they can cause sheets of ice to bend and ultimately break. Understanding the ...
Scientists review research on gravitational wave detectors as a historical example of quantum technologies and examine the fundamental research on the connection between quantum physics and gravity.
We are all bobbing in a sea of ripples in space-time, called gravitational waves, reverberating through the fabric of the universe, scientists announced on Wednesday. Those ripples are probably the ...
Antimatter isn't just made of antiparticles, it's also made of waves. Now we know that this holds true even at the level of a single antimatter particle. Physicists have known for a long time that ...
When incredibly massive objects collide violently in space, they send out ripples in space-time that reverberate through the cosmos for billions of years. Long after the collisions happen, these ...
Electron microscope image of the superfluid wave tank used in the experiments (blue) coupled to an optical fibre which brings laser light in and out of the device. The zoom-in shows the photonic ...
Researchers from the University of Vienna and the University of Duisburg-Essen showed that metallic ...
Light is well known to exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties, as imaged here in this 2015 photograph. What's less well appreciated is that matter particles also exhibit those wave-like ...
