Designing surfaces that precisely control how light behaves at the nanoscale is tricky. Optical Fourier surfaces, which are ...

Nanodiamonds are tiny diamond particles only a few nanometers in size. Because they are chemically highly stable and can host ...

Abstract: This paper presents a novel distributed network control framework for cooperative heavy-load transportation using multi-UAV systems, accounting for thrust limitations and heterogeneous cable ...

Such particles reside in the atmosphere for a few days, said Stephen Holler, a physics professor at Fordham University (archived here). "Any continued effort to use such particulates to modify the ...

On first launch, you'll see a welcome screen where you can choose how intense you want your experience to be. Don't worry - you can always change settings later!

Abstract: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is extensively used in medium-voltage (MV) switchgear and is recognized as a fundamental material that contributes to switchgear fires. Currently, there is a notable ...

Scientists have pulled off a mind-bending quantum experiment that sounds almost impossible: they showed that tiny metal particles made of thousands of atoms can exist in multiple places at once. Using ...

A Burmese python named Harriet has challenged scientific understanding of the species' reproductive cycle. Harriet produced six clutches of eggs over seven reproductive cycles, a much higher rate than ...

Physicists may have just cracked open a hidden side of the quantum world. For decades, every known particle was thought to belong to one of two categories — bosons or fermions — but researchers have ...
