Schrödinger Win for Extreme Waves
Researchers create the most realistic rogue waves to date, showing dynamics that follow those expected for extreme waves in more idealized systems. Continue reading
Wind Farms Perform Under Pressure
Simulations show that negative wind shear can reduce the power output of wind farms. Continue reading
Disordered Systems Mimic Genetic Evolution
A bacterial genome’s evolution under changing drug concentrations displays effects of memory formation and mimics how disordered solids respond to external forces. Continue reading
Interaction Detection with Attosecond Perfection
Mina Bionta explores how light interacts with matter by capturing snapshots of those interactions on the timescale of the light’s oscillations. Continue reading
Strobing Light Shapes Atomic Array
An optical tweezer with a stroboscopic twist can trap cold atoms in lattices
of all shapes. Continue reading
New Cavity Design Soaks Up More Rays
When placed in a lens-and-mirror trap, a weakly absorbing material can capture light from nearly all directions. Continue reading
Water Droplets Shape-Shift on the ISS
Experiments in zero gravity show how a static droplet oscillates on a vibrating hydrophobic surface. Continue reading
Twinkle, Twinkle, Star No More
New forecasting approaches could help users of ground-based telescopes predict when the atmosphere will most blur incoming light, allowing them to better remove the effect. Continue reading
Quantum Thermal Transistor Amplifies Heat Currents
A three-qubit transistor design offers a way to manipulate the system’s heat flow by hitting one of the qubits with a laser. Continue reading
A Tiny Photonic Nose Captures Odor Fingerprints
A bio-inspired detector the size of a US penny can identify the unique odor profiles of different gases, something that could help in detecting food freshness and product counterfeits and in designing new cosmetics. Continue reading
