Researchers discovered brand new interference patterns in twisted two-dimensional tungsten ditelluride lattices. These patterns can be tuned to look like periodic spots or even one-dimensional bands ...

For decades, astronomers have been puzzled by strange “zebra stripe” patterns in radio waves from the Crab Pulsar — bright bands separated by complete darkness. Now, new research suggests the answer ...

In a novel experiment, physicists have observed long range quantum coherence effects due to Aharonov-Bohm interference in a topological insulator-based device. This finding opens up a new realm of ...

The wave nature of quantum particles underpins interference phenomena, which can influence chemical reactions by producing oscillatory patterns in ...

Thomas Young, born 250 years ago this week, was a polymath who made seminal contributions in fields from physics to Egyptology. But perhaps his most enduring legacy is proving Isaac Newton wrong about ...

The quantum rules shaping molecular collisions are now coming into focus, offering fresh insights for chemistry and materials science. (Nanowerk News) The quantum rules shaping molecular collisions ...

Tokyo, Japan – One of the simplest and most beautiful naturally occurring patterns can be observed when light is shined through a pair of slightly misaligned periodic structures. This phenomenon, ...
