Creating Complex Light Patterns Using a Two-Century-Old Light Phenomenon
Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) scientists have used a classic optical phenomenon known as the “Poisson spot” to create stable patterns of light called “optical skyrmions”.
Researchers Identify New Superconductors, Unlocking Process That Could Yield Thousands More
Physicists have used machine-learning to discover two new superconductors––it represents a substantial step towards realising massive energy efficiency gains from superconductivity.
Climate Change Makes Marine Animals Shrink
International study identifies an ancient pattern as a warning sign for the consequences of today’s global warming.
Scientists Unravel the Fast-Moving ‘Butterfly Effect’ of the Deep Ocean
Tiny, invisible swirls and twirls – not much bigger than a coin – deep below the ocean’s surface are silently shaping some of the biggest forces steering our climate: sea level rise, fisheries collapse, extreme flooding, and how much carbon dioxide the ocean absorbs.
As "Super El Niño" Draws Global Attention, New Study Shows the Indian Ocean May Hold the Key to Mediterranean Climate Extremes
While the world watches the Pacific for signs of a possible "Super El Niño," new research suggests another tropical ocean may hold important clues to future climate extremes.
