A recently discovered acoustic effect allows a hot gas to simulate the gravity-induced convection within a star or giant planet. On the rise. Signs of convection are seen in the motion of hot gas ...

UConn researchers design a programmable metamaterial that can morph into more configurations than there are atoms in the universe, in a blink of an eye An artistic rendering of the metamaterial ...

Sound waves travel through different types of matter, including liquid water. Importantly, the movement of ocean water can greatly affect how sound waves travel from one point to another. Mesoscale ...
