Researchers at Tampere University and the University of Eastern Finland have reached a milestone in a study where they derived a new kind of wave equation, which applies for accelerating waves. The ...

Beaverton, OR – 2-6 October 2022 – Light + Building – Hall 9.0, Booth E40 – Z-Wave Alliance, the standards development organization dedicated to advancing the smart home and Z-Wave® technology, ...

Thomas Young, born 250 years ago this week, was a polymath who made seminal contributions in fields from physics to Egyptology. But perhaps his most enduring legacy is proving Isaac Newton wrong about ...

New ultrafast method for controlling magnetic materials might enable next-generation information processing technologies. This illustration shows that a pair of intense THz laser pulses drives spin ...

Researchers have used a 350-year-old theorem to better understand the strange nature of light. The team took a theorem used for describing pendulums and substituted the brightness of light in for what ...

Bioluminescent waves are once again lighting up California's waters, as red tide spreads along the coast. The lingulodinium polyedra—also known as red tide—has been spotted in San Diego, and is ...

In the universe, a few rules govern phenomena, from the Fibonacci sequence to the morphogenesis of figures created by various waves. If we think the universe was created by the random impact of atoms, ...

Whenever light interacts with matter, light appears to slow down. This is not a new observation and standard wave mechanics can describe most of these daily phenomena. For example, when light is ...
