When an intense laser pulse hits a stationary electron, it performs a trembling motion at the frequency of the light field.

A pulse of light sets the tempo in the material. Atoms in a crystalline sheet just a few atoms thick begin to move—not ...

Memories of places "drift" across the brain as they are carried by different sets of neurons over time, a new study in mice suggests. Historically, neuroscientists thought that memories of locations ...

I’ve always wondered — can we see an electron? I dug into the science behind this tiny particle, and it turns out the answer is way more fascinating (and weird) than I expected. Here’s what we know so ...

In one of the courses I teach, my students are asked if it’s harder to change an individual’s way of thinking about things or to change an organization’s culture. The truth is, both are complicated.

Researchers demonstrate a previously unknown effect of electron acceleration in ultrashort laser pulses. Scientists from the Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg (FAU) and the University ...

This valuable study examines the effects of side-wall confinement on the chemotaxis of swimming bacteria in a shallow microfluidic channel. The authors present solid experimental evidence, combined ...

I would like to know how ROMS calculates the Stokes drift velocity, in which subroutine it is calculated, as I couldn't find relevant information on the ROMS official website.I would greatly ...
