Scientists demonstrate time reflection of electromagnetic waves
March 13, 2023

When we look in a mirror, we are used to seeing our faces looking back at us. The reflected images are produced by electromagnetic light waves bouncing off of the mirrored surface, creating the common phenomenon called spatial reflection. Similarly, spatial reflections of sound waves form echoes that carry our words back to us in the same order we spoke them.

Physicists were surprised by the 2022 discovery that electrons in magnetic iron-germanium crystals could spontaneously and collectively organize their charges into a pattern featuring a standing wave. Magnetism also arises from the collective self-organization of electron spins into ordered patterns, and those patterns rarely coexist with the patterns that produce the standing wave of electrons physicists call a charge density wave.

Europe’s Galileo is the world’s most precise satellite navigation system, providing meter-level accuracy and very precise timing to its four billion users. An essential ingredient to ensure this stays the case are the atomic clocks aboard each satellite, delivering pinpoint timekeeping that is maintained to a few billionths of a second. These clocks are called atomic because their “ticks” come from ultra-rapid, ultra-stable oscillation of atoms between different energy states. Sustaining this performance demands, in turn, even more accurate...

On August 17, 2017, about 70 telescopes collectively turned their gaze to a fiery collision between two dead stars that took place millions of light-years away. The telescopes watched the event unfold in a rainbow of wavelengths, from radio waves to visible light to the highest-energy gamma rays. As the pair of ultra-dense neutron stars crashed into each other, they flung debris outward that glowed for days, weeks, and months. Some of the onlooking telescopes spotted gold, platinum, and...

Using the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE), an international team of astronomers has conducted X-ray polarimetric observations of an accreting X-ray pulsar known as Vela X-1. Results of the observational campaign, presented March 3 on the arXiv pre-print server, deliver important insights into the properties of X-ray radiation from this pulsar.

German neo-Nazis have been getting military-style training at camps run by a far-right Russian terrorist organization, German media reported Friday, in the latest sign of deepening international cooperation between white supremacist networks. Citing intelligence sources, German news magazine Focus reported that the extremists had attended a camp held near Saint Petersburg, where they were shown how to use weapons and explosives, and received close combat training. The training camp, known as Partizan, is run by the Russian Imperial Movement...

On May 25 in Minneapolis, a police officer pressed his knee into the neck of George Floyd, a 46-year-old Black man, for 8 minutes and 46 seconds, as he struggled to breathe and then fell unconscious. He was pronounced dead shortly afterwards. With each passing day since Floyd’s death, protests swelled, drawing tens of thousands to the streets in over 140 cities in the United States, with peaceful marches, rallies, property damage, and violent clashes with the police occurring...

On Tuesday, West Bromwich Albion, a club that currently plays in the second tier of English soccer, tweeted a graphic that read “Together We Are Stronger,” an anti-racism message that it punctuated with the #blackouttuesday hashtag. When one now-deleted Twitter nobody called the team’s support of the Black Lives Matter movement “pathetic” and said he wouldn’t be renewing his season ticket next year, West Brom didn’t stutter. “You won’t be missed,” it wrote. West Brom, an English soccer club...

The weeks following George Floyd’s death in the hands of the Minneapolis police have seen an unprecedented redistribution of wealth in the U.S., as celebrities, corporations, and regular folks have contributed out of their own pockets to city-wide bail funds, Black owned businesses, and other fundraisers aimed at uplifting and supporting America’s Black population. Many of these efforts have already amounted to huge success—the Minnesota Bail Fund, set up in Floyd’s home state, raised $2o million dollars in less...

Planets, stars, and galaxies all spin along an axis of rotation. But does the universe itself also whirl around an axis, or several, albeit on a much larger scale? If it did, it would fly in the face of scientists’ most basic assumptions about the cosmos we inhabit. Now, one researcher believes his latest observations may provide evidence for this possibility. This notion that our universe was born with a spinning structure has been floated by scientists for years,...
