Finding out what the universe is actually made of remains one of the ultimate ...

In quantum mechanics, particles such as electrons act like waves and can even interfere with themselves—a striking and counterintuitive feature that defies our classical view of reality. We know this ...

LightSolver's optical supercomputer uses laser interference patterns to solve complex physics problems. Credit: LightSolver Boeing is funding Israeli startup LightSolver to apply its laser-based ...

Researchers have discovered brand new interference patterns in twisted two-dimensional tungsten ditelluride lattices. These so-called moir patterns can be tuned to look like periodic spots or even one ...

Ice on an aircraft's surfaces can be a hazard: it increases drag and fuel consumption, disrupts aerodynamic flows, and decreases lift, impairing an aircraft's ability to fly safely. Researchers at the ...
