Cloaking exploits some of the ideas from the physics of space, in particular those of Einstein's theory of general relativity. This theory states that the laws of physics are the same in all ...

The idea of spatial cloaking consists of the probe light being bent in a precise fashion to prevent it from being scattered by the object, which thus remains hidden from an observer. This has been ...

Researchers in the US have engineered the first optical material that demonstrates cloaking behaviour in the visible. The team believes that its design validates the basic theory of electromagnetic ...

This Behind the Scenes article was provided to LiveScience in partnership with the National Science Foundation. Applied mathematician Graeme Milton dreams up new materials, develops mathematical ...

The experiment tested the cloak with light hitting at a 45 degree angle, and works effectively only within a 6-degree range of angles. Kante said his team is working on ways to expand that.

Mathematicians have developed the theory for a Harry Potter style 'cloaking' device which could protect buildings from earthquakes. Scientists have been working on the theory of invisibility ...

The idea of invisibility cloaking got its start in 2006 when John Pendry of Imperial College London and David Schurig and David Smith of Duke University laid out the theory of "transformation ...

New Theory: How to Make Objects Invisible High-tech cloaking machines could one day render very small objects nearly invisible and perhaps improve military stealth technology, scientists said Monday.

The Oct. 26, 2006 RF Report described a demonstration of cloaking--making an object invisible--conducted at Duke University and Imperial College in London. Allan Greenleaf, professor of mathematics at ...
