Evanescent waves

Exploring the physics phenomenon where light waves penetrate a boundary even when total internal reflection occurs. Demonstrating how these non-propagating waves exist and their crucial role in ...
A team of researchers at the Max Born Institute managed to fully characterize few-femtosecond-long light pulses tunable in ...
Glowing bats may sound like Halloween decor, but researchers in Georgia have discovered certain species of North American bats that are capable of the unusual trick. When placed under ultraviolet ...
Researchers have directly observed torsional Alfvén waves twisting through the Sun’s corona — magnetic waves first predicted over 80 years ago. Captured using the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, ...
