Researchers have directly observed torsional Alfvén waves twisting through the Sun’s corona — magnetic waves first predicted over 80 years ago. Captured using the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, ...

A team of researchers have extended Berry’s well-known geometric-dynamic decomposition from the wave-evolution phase to a distinct class of wave scattering problems Wave scattering events can now be ...

Physicists at Stevens Institute of Technology use a 350-year-old theorem that explains the workings of pendulums and planets to reveal new properties of light waves. Credit: Stevens Institute of ...

Physicists have finally confirmed a phenomenon that sounds like pure science fiction: waves that appear to bounce off a sudden change in time rather than a surface in space. The effect, known as a ...

At the universe's grandest scales, galaxy clusters collide in slow-motion cataclysms, leaving behind immense, ghostly arcs — vast ribbons of diffuse radio emissions that can stretch across millions of ...
