Scientists have identified an unexpected shared pattern in the collective movement of bacteria and electrons: As billions of bacteria stream through a microfluidic lattice, they synchronize and swim ...

What if a fidget spinner suddenly changes its rotation pattern mid-spin without anyone touching it? That’s essentially what Comet 117P/2003 S2 appears to have done in space, and Hubble caught the ...

A new study reveals how a spinning vortex causes system-wide, counter-rotating wave patterns, mimicking effects that occur, ...

The patterns formed by spiral galaxies show that the universe may have a defined structure and suggest that the early universe could have been spinning, according to a computational astronomer. An ...

For decades, astronomers have looked to the outer reaches of the cosmos for answers to our most fundamental questions: Where did we come from? What lies beyond? And how does it all work? A recent ...

MANHATTAN, KANSAS -- An analysis of more than 200,000 spiral galaxies has revealed unexpected links between spin directions of galaxies, and the structure formed by these links might suggest that the ...

Saturn’s northern lights heat one side of the planet’s upper atmosphere and drive winds that mimic changes in its spin.

An MIT research team has observed a previously unseen form of magnetism, one that sits outside the familiar categories of ferromagnets and antiferromagnets. The discovery, termed p-wave magnetism, ...

This image shows an all-sky mollweide map of the quadrupole in the distribution of galaxy spin directions. In this image, the different colors mean different statistical strength of having a ...

(Nanowerk News) An analysis of more than 200,000 spiral galaxies has revealed unexpected links between spin directions of galaxies, and the structure formed by these links might suggest that the early ...
