Von Karman vortices are spectacular in satellite imagery, are more common than they may sound, and, at least in one case, they have proven to be damaging. As a meteorologist, one of my favorite ...

For the first time, scientists have experimentally confirmed that electrons can form tornado-like structures in momentum ...

Researcher have created a new magnetic state dubbed the "vortion" that could dramatically reduce energy consumption in ...

Controlling this state paves the way for the creation of more intelligent, reconfigurable and energy-efficient devices that ...

Toroidal vortices, common in fluid dynamics, are newly explored in electromagnetism as two distinct forms: vector toroidal ...

Researchers from Würzburg have experimentally demonstrated a quantum tornado for the first time by refining an established ...

Firenados: A Fiery Phenomenon Firenados, or fire tornadoes, are not your everyday weather occurrence. They are intense and rare phenomena that occur during wildfires, creating a stunning yet ...

Supersolids are materials that challenge both logic and expectations. At first glance, a supersolid appears to be a typical solid due to its rigid crystalline structure. ... Continue Reading → ...
