Wingtip Vortices: They're One of the Costs of Lift
When people want to talk about something unpleasant, they often invent nicer-sounding phrases to disguise what's really going on. "Wake turbulence" is the kind of term that can bring to mind vague, ...
A new optical device allows researchers to generate and switch between two stable, donut-shaped light patterns called ...
Supersolids are a new form of quantum matter that has only recently been demonstrated. The state of matter can be produced artificially in ultracold, dipolar quantum gases. A team has now demonstrated ...

Imagine a whirlpool spinning in a river, or a tornado swirling through the sky. They don't just spin on the spot: they travel forward while maintaining that spiraling motion inside them. These ...
This striking satellite photo shows multiple examples of a rare meteorological phenomenon, known as "von Kármán vortices," swirling off at least six different islands in the Atlantic Ocean. Very ...
Researchers develop an efficient method to dry cellulose nanofibers using heated air vortices, a potential plastic replacement.
(Nanowerk News) Matter that behaves like both a solid and a superfluid at the same time seems impossible. Yet, more than 50 years ago, physicists predicted that quantum mechanics allows such a state, ...
