The scientists behind the MAGIS-100 experiment aim to use state-of-the-art lasers to shed light on ultralight dark matter.

Images of the cube and sphere created by the Vienna team. At rest, the cube appears normal. When simulated at 99.9% of light speed, the sphere remains round but reveals parts of its far side. (Image ...

In this work, an alternative formulation of the laws of refraction of light is presented. The proposed formulation unifies the two established laws of refraction, and it is shown the correspondence ...

The Spktrl Light ring uses technology to trigger coded light displays through the diamond on its surface. By Tina Isaac-Goizé Reporting from Paris Through the ages, jewels have conveyed their wearer’s ...

Refraction is the change in the direction of light due to a change in its speed as it enters a different medium. While the speed of light is constant in a vacuum, it decreases in denser materials, ...

WASHINGTON — Rocket Lab continues to push for a first launch of its Neutron rocket before the end of the year, but company executives acknowledge that schedule has ...

Editor’s Note: This is part of a series called Inside the Lab, which gives audiences a first-hand look at the research laboratories at the University of Chicago and the scholars who are tackling some ...

Scientists have demonstrated that negative refraction can be achieved using atomic arrays -- without the need for artificially manufactured metamaterials. Scientists have long sought to control light ...

NORFOLK, Va. — There will always be a place in our hearts for the way things used to be. That is especially true for people in the business of making memories. Which makes Katie Culver a historian of ...
