Study illustrates nuances of gravitational pull of ice sheets
It is well known that global warming is causing sea levels to rise via two processes: thermal expansion, when water expands because of its increased temperature, and melting of land-based… Read More »Study illustrates nuances of gravitational pull of ice sheets
Astronaut in space successfully controls ground-based rover
If man’s best friend is a dog, then in the future astronauts’ closest companions might well be rovers. A technique allowing astronauts in orbit to control rovers exploring planetary surfaces… Read More »Astronaut in space successfully controls ground-based rover
Study introduces loss-free matter-wave polaritons in an optical lattice system
Polaritons are quasiparticles that are formed when photons couple strongly with excitations of matter. These quasi-particles, which are half-light and half-matter, underpin the functioning of a wide range of emergent… Read More »Study introduces loss-free matter-wave polaritons in an optical lattice system
Lying won’t stretch your nose, but it will steal some brainpower
I can’t come to your party because I have to help clean out the garage. Your new haircut looks great! I’ll do my homework before playing video games. Promise! Lies,… Read More »Lying won’t stretch your nose, but it will steal some brainpower
