Scientists mapping the human body at the cellular level keep running into the same surprise: beneath the apparent chaos of ...

Fast radio bursts are having a moment in the science community. After another repeating fast radio signal was traced to a nearby galaxy last month, a new study found that this burst occurs in a ...

New clues have been uncovered in the mystery of fast radio bursts (FRBs) from space. One of these strange signals has been repeating seemingly at random – but with years of observation, an ...

One of the universe's deep mysteries just got a lot stranger. Astrophysicists have discovered a clue that could help explain why, every once in a while, superfast bursts of radio waves flash across ...

Remember the graph paper you used at school, the kind that’s covered with tiny squares? It’s the perfect illustration of what mathematicians call a “periodic tiling of space”, with shapes covering an ...

What just happened? A group of mathematicians created a "new" polygon previously known to exist only in theory. It's a 13-sided shape that they dubbed "the hat," even though it only vaguely resembles ...

Nature follows mathematical rules and creates repeating patterns across completely different organisms and environments.

Have you ever found yourself captivated by the intricate repeating designs on fabric, wrapping paper, and more? There’s something truly magical about repeating patterns that can transform ordinary ...

Experiments and modeling work offers new insights into the striking patterns of repeating stones seen in frost-prone landscapes. Nature is full of repeating patterns that are part of the beauty of our ...

A crystal’s calling card is its regular, repeating pattern of unmoving atoms or molecules. But now a team of physicists have proposed a new kind of crystal that gets its order from the carefully ...
