Physicists have long treated mass as a basic ingredient of nature, something particles simply possess, even as the Higgs ...

The mode transition of combined-cycle inlets, governed by sidewall constraints, is inherently characterized by significant ...

Mathematicians are “reinventing the wheel” by giving it a new shape. Their newly imagined wheel looks like a many-dimensional guitar pick, and it could theoretically roll in ways beyond our ...

Mathematicians predicted that if they imposed enough restrictions on how a shape might tile space, they could force a periodic pattern to emerge. But they were wrong. One of the oldest and simplest ...
