In recent years, physicists have been trying to better understand the behavior of individual quantum particles as they move in space. Yet directly imaging these particles with high precision has so ...

Prolate spheroidal wave functions (PSWFs) and their discrete counterparts – the discrete prolate spheroidal sequences (DPSSs) – have emerged as essential tools in the analysis of band‐limited ...

A new milestone in nuclear physics has been achieved with the direct observation of three different deformations in the atomic nucleus of lead-190 (190Pb). These deformations, associated with three ...

Extremely cold atoms have been nudged to self-magnify their quantum states so they can be imaged in unprecedented detail. This could help researchers better understand what quantum particles do in odd ...

Electromagnetic wave propagation in layered media is a subject of enduring importance in both theoretical and applied physics. It encompasses the study of how electromagnetic fields interact with ...
