Optical vortices—light beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM)—are characterized by helical wavefronts and phase singularities. While they have been widely studied in recent decades, two ...

A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one. In everyday three-dimensional space, that swap only comes in two flavors. Either the ...

When you drill down into the very fabric of reality—where elementary particles make up the matter that is you and me and everything around us in three-dimensional space—things get divided nicely into ...

For the first time, researchers have shown that self-assembled phosphorus chains can host genuinely one-dimensional electron behavior. Using advanced imaging and spectroscopy techniques, they ...

Abstract: Joint Radar-communications (JRC) has been widely studied as a key technique in future wireless communication systems. One of the crucial challenges is waveform design for the JRC. In this ...

One-dimensional (1D) nanomaterials are structures in which two dimensions are confined to the nanometer scale (1 to 100 nm), while the third dimension is much larger, resulting in wire-, ribbon-, or ...

In forecasting economic time series, statistical models often need to be complemented with a process to impose various constraints in a smooth manner. Systematically imposing constraints and retaining ...

Scientists led by Hanns-Christoph Nägerl have observed anyons -- quasiparticles that differ from the familiar fermions and bosons -- in a one-dimensional quantum system for the first time. The results ...

It can be tempting to assume that your intuitions about three-dimensional space carry over to higher-dimensional realms. After all, adding another dimension simply creates a new direction to move ...

Until now, scientists were only aware of the presence of insulators exhibiting one-dimensional magnetism. However, a team of researchers has observed unique one-dimensional magnetism in Ti₄MnBi₂. “We ...

“Everyone understands storytelling on a profound level,” Brennan Lee Mulligan tells Rolling Stone. “Every culture in the world uses it to talk about what matters, to talk about being human. What makes ...
