For the past two decades, the rotation of the Earth has shown unusual behavior. Scientists have now identified a surprising cause for this phenomenon: the loss…
According to a team of Harvard physicists, the structure of the optically rotating animal continues in a logarithmic spiral. The evolution of light beams carrying the…
Most of us are aware that our planet is constantly spinning around its own axis as it orbits the sun. However, the Earth actually rotates around…
A recent study reveals that climate change is fundamentally reshaping the Earth, impacting its core. The melting of polar ice caps and glaciers due to global…
Physicists at the University of Vienna have used a maximally entangled quantum state of light paths in a large interferometer to experimentally measure the speed of…
Global warming is causing the Earth’s rotation to slow slightly, which could affect the way we measure time. A study published Wednesday found that the melting…
