From vibrating strings to plasma waves in space, frequency and wave behavior influence phenomena all around us. Scientists, educators, and citizen volunteers are exploring how wave speed, wavelength, ...

A closed door feels absolute. Light stays in one room, darkness settles in the next, and the boundary seems obvious enough to ...

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 ...

Down at the level of atoms and electrons, quantum physics describes the behavior of the very smallest objects. Solar panels, LED lights, your mobile phone and MRI scanners in hospitals: all of these ...

What if the next new theory of the universe didn’t come from a human mind, but from an artificial one? In a development that has left the scientific community both awestruck and unsettled, artificial ...

Teflon objects (orange cylinders) were placed in a waveguide with a rectangular cross-section. Then, an electromagnetic signal (blue wavefront) was injected from the right to extract information about ...
