Researchers from D-Wave Systems and the Vector Institute demonstrated the simulation of a topological phase transition—the subject of the 2016 Nobel Prize in Physics—in a fully programmable D-Wave ...

At hypersonic speeds, complexities occur when the gases interact with the surface of the vehicle, such as boundary layers and shock waves. Researchers in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at The ...

Breaking waves shape our coastlines, sink cruise ships and fishing vessels and play a crucial role in climate systems. Yet, despite decades of research, scientists have struggled to fully explain why ...

Smarajit Triambak receives funding from the National Research Foundation, South Africa. As a physicist, I am trained to look for patterns in data. For example, the motion of the tiniest particles may ...

Warp drives are staples of science fiction, and in principle could propel spaceships faster than the speed of light. Unfortunately, there are many problems with constructing them in practice, such as ...

The first discovery of a quasicrystal 13 disproved the long-standing conjecture in condensed matter physics that only crystalline materials with translational symmetry could be densely packed and ...
