A new model is bringing scientists a step closer to understanding the kinds of light signals produced when two supermassive black holes, which are millions to billions of times the mass of the Sun, ...

Could invisibility cloaks become a reality? New research brings this science fiction concept a step closer, with a breakthrough software package that simulates how waves interact with complex ...

The sheen of satin, the subtle glints of twill, the translucence of sheer silk: Fabric has long been difficult to render ...

D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) today announced a quantum advance published in the journal Science, confirming that its annealing quantum computer outperformed one of the world’s most powerful ...

This image is a simulation of a kind of acoustic wave called a Rayleigh-Bloch wave. The stripes of light and dark areas represent the “peaks" and “troughs" of the waves and are shaped by their ...

This will vastly improve the ability to rapidly design metamaterials – exciting artificial materials used to amplify, block or deflect waves. The findings, published in the journal Proceedings of the ...
