Oscillons are spatially localised, quasi-stable configurations that emerge within scalar field theories, exhibiting coherent oscillatory behaviour over extended periods. Despite lacking a topological ...

Recent theoretical and observational advances have revitalised the study of black holes endowed with scalar fields. Traditionally, the no‐hair theorem suggested that black holes could be fully ...

Scientists typically explain gravity in terms of Einstein’s theory of general relativity. In this model, objects in the universe cause the fabric of spacetime to warp around them, creating a ...

Imagine a wave that could achieve faster than light communications; one that could travel through any material including Faraday cages, and wirelessly beam power to receivers. Nikola Tesla ...

The Higgs boson is the only fundamental particle known to be scalar, meaning it has no quantum spin. This fact answers questions about our universe, but it also raises new ones. When it was first ...

The theory of the representation of wave fields in terms of superpositions of monochromatic plane waves is presented for fields satisfying the inhomogeneous scalar wave equation. The discussion ...

Scalar tailored light fields spatially structured in amplitude and phase are well established in modern optics. They offer a wide range of applications in e.g. optical communication technology, ...
