A pair of researchers from Universit´e Paris-Saclay, CNRS and Univ Rennes, CNRS, IPR, respectively, has used math to help describe the process involved when short strands of fiber are twisted into long stretches of yarn. ...
A new study by Jonathan Katz of Washington University in St. Louis suggests that a recently discovered periodic radio transient source, designated GLEAM-X J162759.5−523504.3, may be a rare white dwarf pulsar. The finding ...
Researchers from the Institute of the Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and their collaborators from France, Finland, Romania and other countries have recently observed the transverse wobbling ...
