To harness the forces that power the Sun, researchers heat fuel to such a high temperature that atoms melt into electrons and nuclei to form a hot, gaseous soup called plasma. The plasma can rip ...

When an intense laser pulse hits an electron at rest, the latter performs a quiver motion with the frequency of the light ...

The familiar tick-tock of wall clocks originates from the escapement mechanism, which controls gear movement in precise steps. While our brains perceive two distinct sounds, clocks actually produce ...

ABSTRACT The intraseasonal oscillations (ISOs) of southern China spring rainfall (SCSR) are examined based on daily rain gauge rainfall data and NCEP/Department of Energy Reanalysis 2 (NCEP-2) ...

Organisms on this planet, including human beings, exhibit a biological rhythm that repeats about every 24 h to adapt to the daily environmental alteration caused by the rotation of the earth. This ...

Tiny molecular forces at the surface of water droplets can play a big role in laser output emissions. As the most fundamental matrix of life, water drives numerous essential biological activities, ...

New research from a multidisciplinary team helps to illuminate the mechanisms behind circadian rhythms, offering new hope for dealing with jet lag, insomnia and other sleep disorders. Using innovative ...

A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11927224B2) discloses a unique clutch system that includes an oscillation decoupling system and a clutch. The oscillation decoupling system comprises ...

ABSTRACT The authors explore the preceding factors of summertime Asian–Pacific Oscillation (APO) using observations and output from the NCEP Climate Forecast System version 2 (CFSv2). Results show ...

A slider-crank mechanism is a typical design which converts rotary motion into linear motion. It is achieved by connecting a slider and a crank with a rod. Figure A depicts a mechanism utilized as a ...
