Global climate models capture many of the processes that shape Earth's weather and climate. Based on physics, chemistry, ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write about physics, science, academia, and pop culture. The highlight of the Great Escape trip wound up being their wave pool, ...

Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.

A cluster of 7,000 sodium atoms has just been coaxed into behaving as a single, ghostly wave, stretching quantum weirdness ...

The control of matter motion at liquid–gas interfaces opens an opportunity to create two-dimensional materials with remotely tunable properties. In analogy with optical lattices used in ultra-cold ...

Physics fans are a lot like surfers. Both think waves are really fun. For surfers, it’s all about having a good time. For physicists, it’s about understanding some of nature’s most important physical ...

Flocks of birds can get only so big before falling apart. A new study shows that flocks of different sizes behave differently, and could help explain how animals like birds and fish coordinate their ...

The mmWave sensor, mounted inside the linac bore above the isocentre, measures displacement through obstructions including (a) a gown, (b) alpha cradle and (c) face ...
