P hysicists at MIT have achieved a major feat, capturing a bizarre quantum effect called second sound on film, where heat ripples through matter like a wave instead of spreading gradually. First ...

Scientists at MIT have directly captured signs of “second sound” in a superfluid for the first time. This bizarre phenomenon occurs when heat moves like sound waves through an unusual state of matter.

While many plans for quantum computers transmit data using the particles of light known as photons, researchers from the ...

Optical illusions tend to get the lion's share when we talk about things that make us question reality, but acoustic anomalies can be equally trippy especially if they were not designed with the ...

Scientists from the CMS collaboration at CERN have measured the speed of sound in the quark-gluon plasmas with record precision, a key step to understanding how matter behaved in the very early ...

King, who is Oscar-nominated for his work on the historical epic, on how his work ranged from large- to small-scale moments. By Beatrice Verhoeven Deputy Awards Editor For sound editor Richard King, ...
