A Cornell doctoral student has developed an open-source software package that could transform how engineers design floating ...

This review discusses the impact of non-Hermitian physics on optics, revealing new possibilities in wave control and addressing fundamental performance limits.

Modern cellphones are also built on the work of today’s winners from 40 years ago.

A clever mathematical tool known as virtual particles unlocks the strange and mysterious inner workings of subatomic ...

Can we reveal objects that are hidden in environments completely opaque to the human eye? With conventional imaging ...

Using newly developed mathematical methods, scientists found a way to detect the position of objects hidden in opaque ...

Frequency is an essential concept in physics, especially when studying waves, oscillations and vibrations. It represents the number of cycles completed by a periodic phenomenon in a set period of time ...

Cold atoms could also potentially measure much lower vacuum pressures than ion gauges can. The current lowest pressure they’ve reliably measured is around 10 -9 Pa, and NIST scientists are working on ...

The increasing role of carbon emissions in causing heat waves, floods, droughts and other extreme weather is becoming clearer, thanks to the growing field of climate attribution studies. This research ...

Abstract: One of the primary objectives of 2-D inverse scattering problems (ISPs) is to accurately characterize the nature of an unknown tomographic domain based on the collected scattered field data.
