Researchers have found that a swirling water vortex can force opposing waves to form rotating lines of stillness across an ...

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 ...

An international research collaboration featuring scientists from the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering and the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory has discovered a fundamental universal principle ...

This appendix introduces the study of vortex matter and describes some of the leading avenues of research. The experimental exploration of vortex matter, which is one of the many topics uncovered by ...

Vortex is a natural fluid phenomenon that is often of great consequence in almost any practical flow, such as shear layers, ...

Weather 'I've seen the movies. What a horrible way to die': What it's like to be sucked into a tornado and survive Space 'Something's missing': Most thorough-ever study of the cosmos proves we still ...

Superconductors are materials that, below a certain critical temperature, exhibit zero electrical resistance and completely expel magnetic fields, a phenomenon known as the Meissner effect. They can ...
