The first signs of a potential hurricane can be detected days before a storm gains its fierce momentum. Wispy cirrus clouds ...

The Coriolis effect, which is a force caused by the rotation of the Earth, is named after physicist Gaspard-Gustave Coriolis. The effect was detected earlier by other people, but it was fully ...

Scientists then defined the “edge” of this gaseous material by introducing a laser, which formed a wall around the atoms.

Tropical Storm Francine's track forecast shifted east Tuesday morning, putting New Orleans uncomfortably close to the center ...

This is because the Coriolis force, crucial for the initial spin-up of the cyclonic system, is weaker near the equator. The Coriolis force is caused by the Earth’s rotation, which makes moving ...

MIT scientists have coaxed atoms into an exotic “edge state” for the first time, allowing them to flow completely ...

When Jared Bryan talks about his seismology research, it's with a natural finesse. He's a fifth-year Ph.D. student working ...

Coriolis meters can handle small amounts of bubbles and particles ... Also, expect to find unique pressure effect coefficients published by the manufacturer to account for expected offsets in the ...

MIT researchers have made a significant breakthrough by observing and capturing images of rare edge states in ultracold atoms.

Our Earth’s circle of latitude passes through 11 countries: Indonesia (which has the longest cut), Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, ...

Into this manufactured reality, the researchers then introduced an “edge,” in the form of a ring of laser light, which formed ...
