Protons can surf some truly gnarly waves. A new experiment suggests that the subatomic particles can be accelerated by a process akin to surfers catching waves. The protons get a speed boost not from ...
Shock waves should not be shocking—engineers across scientific fields need to be able to precisely predict how the instant and strong pressure changes initiate and dissipate to prevent damage. Now, ...
The tiny-but-mighty pistol shrimp can snap its claws with sufficient force to produce a shock wave to stun its prey. So how come the shrimp appears immune to its sonic weapon? Scientists have ...
Dispersive shock waves (DSWs) represent a class of nonlinear wave phenomena in which phase dispersion, rather than viscosity or dissipation, governs the evolution of abrupt changes in a medium. Unlike ...
Astronomers have detected enormous shockwaves rattling the cosmic web that connects all galaxies in the universe, offering vital clues on how the largest structures in space were shaped. When you ...
A gas truck explosion that generated a “shock wave” in Mexico City on Wednesday killed at least six people and left 90 injured, according to the city’s government. Those who were injured were taken to ...
