MIT physicists have captured the first images of individual atoms freely interacting in space. The pictures reveal ...

Light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, challenging traditional wave-particle thinking.

FURTHER observations by Mr. Krishnan and myself on the new kind of light-scattering discovered by us have been made and have led to some very surprising and interesting results.

But have you discovered its cinematic heritage? The British Film Institute recently published a compelling feature, 10 Great Slovak New Wave Films, spotlighting a lesser-known but significant chapter ...

We are at a critical time and supporting climate journalism is more important than ever. Science News and our parent organization, the Society for Science, need your help to strengthen ...

However, it has long been theorised that if a material’s properties could vary on a timescale comparable to the oscillation period of light waves, it would lead to unprecedented phenomena such ...

This discovery is explained as light waves showcasing an appearance of travelling backwards in time. Photons don’t just go straight forward when they pass through materials. Rather, these photons are ...

Short-wave infrared radiation (SWIR) is roughly the part of the electromagnetic spectrum between 1.4 μm – 3 μm, or 100 THz – 214 THz. This places it between visible light and microwaves ...
