For more than a century, scientists have known that waves can behave in ways that seem to defy common sense, from freak walls of water in the open ocean to ghostly ripples inside atoms. What has ...

When black holes need a place to crash, they prefer a nice, bright quasar. So says Chiara Mingarelli, an assistant professor of physics in Yale’s Faculty of Arts and Sciences and a key member of an ...

In a groundbreaking development, researchers have constructed a microscopic “ocean” on a silicon chip, enabling them to simulate quantum wave interactions at a scale never seen before. This innovative ...

Spin waves are collective oscillations of electron spins in magnetic materials. They represent a quantum mechanical phenomenon in which electrons’ angular momentum or spin fluctuates in a coordinated ...
