In the 30 years since the discovery of 51 Pegasi b, more than 6,000 planets outside our Solar System have been catalogued. Two modern-day explorers explain how.

Abstract: In the absence of fracture, the strata with horizontal interbedding structure can be approximately equivalent to transversely isotropic media with vertical axis of symmetry (VTI) in the ...

International Physics Day, celebrated every year on April 24, is probably a good occasion to explore the ‘mind of God,’ for science is much more than cascading formulas or tedious lab experiments.

The center of gravity (CoG) is a crucial concept in mechanics, physics, and engineering. It refers to the point at which the entire weight of an object appears to be concentrated. In simpler terms, it ...

This jingle has helped generations of algebra students recall the quadratic formula that solves every equation of the form $latex ax^2+bx+c=0$. The formula is as ...

Nonlinear problems, originating from applied science that is closely related to practices, contain rich and extensive content. It makes the corresponding nonlinear models also complex and diverse. Due ...

Abstract: Unconventional reservoirs usually have strong anisotropy. Generally, they can be regarded as transversely isotropic media with a vertical symmetry axis [(VTI) media] in the absence of ...

An imaginary straight line that is dividing a shape into two identical parts is known as the axis of symmetry. One of the identical parts acts as the mirror image of the other one. If the shape is ...
