Watching, modeling and even playing winter sports help students internalize physics concepts, including acceleration, ...

When a magnetic material is bombarded with short pulses of laser light, it loses its magnetism within femtoseconds (10 –15 seconds). The spin, or angular momentum, of the electrons in the material ...

Master the physics behind a backspinning bouncing ball and uncover the secrets of its rotation! This video explains angular momentum, torque, and energy transfer in a clear, step-by-step way, making ...

Introduction You might have seen figure skaters spinning around quickly and then tucking their arms to spin faster—or opening them to spin more slowly. This happens, thanks to a physics concept known ...

The Einstein–de Haas effect, which links the spin of electrons to macroscopic rotation, has now been demonstrated in a ...

Monopoles of orbital angular momentum (OAM) are a tantalizing prospect for orbitronics because OAM is uniform in all directions. This would mean that information flows could be generated in any ...

You can take any particle in the Universe and isolate it from everything else, yet there are some properties that can never be taken away. These are intrinsic, physical properties of the particle ...

Optical vortices are currently one of the most intensively studied topics in optics. These light beams, which carry orbital angular momentum (OAM), have been successfully utilized in the visible and ...

Diving has gotten a lot of strange attention this year, thanks to a lack of filtration chemicals that caused the water to turn from a pristine blue to a worrisome green, which Olympic officials are ...
