Scientists show “time travel” effects in the lab without breaking physics
A machine to send objects into the past is not the cleanest modern evidence with regard to the physical reality of time travel. It is a laboratory illusion which causes waves to act as though part of ...
CU Boulder researchers have designed microscopic “racetracks” that trap and amplify light with exceptional efficiency. By using smooth curves inspired by highway engineering, they reduced energy loss ...
