In a series of observations that read like science fiction, astronomers now suspect they have watched a star quite literally ...
One of the great successes of 20th-century physics was the quantum mechanical description of solids. This allowed scientists ...
Almost exactly 200 years ago, French physicist Sadi Carnot determined the maximum efficiency of heat engines. The Carnot ...
Biologists have long treated cell membranes as passive barriers, thin skins that separate the chemistry of life from the ...
Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics attempts ...
Passive, lossy materials with positive index at real frequencies can be used to realize optical antimatter under complex frequency excitation. Our approach enables arbitrary complex \(\epsilon ,\,\mu\ ...
Scientists in China have performed an experiment first proposed by Albert Einstein almost a century ago when he sought to disprove the quantum mechanical principle of complementarity put forth by ...
