Refraction is described and students learn to draw diagrams of refracted waves. Refraction is described and students learn to draw diagrams of refracted waves. They also learn to describe diffraction ...

The first experimental verification of Snell’s law for spin waves has been carried out by an international team of researchers. By imaging the incident, refracted and reflected waves at interfaces in ...

The interface between two facets of an artificial material known as a “Weyl phononic crystal” can not only negatively refract an airborne sound wave, it does so without reflecting it at all. This ...

If you were able to visualize the passage of time, it may appear as looping ribbons of color, these fragments ribboning and glinting whenever they refracted light. Researchers at the University of ...

Designing scramjets with extremely high-speed propulsion just got easier: Numerical simulations show the effects of shockwaves on fluid vortices and detail the complex wave forms and chemical ...
