I’ve been forecasting waves along the Central Coast since 1991, but the recent swell event marked the longest period and wavelengths I’ve ever observed. The waves were immense and powerful ...

After refining a technique for precisely tracking electrons as they ricochet off a material, the team produced and detected a series of periodic waves rippling through swarms of electrons. These waves ...

A 25-second period wave boasts a 3,200-foot wavelength, stirring the ocean down to 1,600 feet. These waves move exponentially larger volumes of water, amplifying their destructive potential.

Periodic wave solutions in nonlinear equations play a pivotal role in understanding phenomena across fluid dynamics, optical physics, and quantum mechanics. Their stability—whether a wave ...

As oceanographer Walter Munk of Scripps Institution of Oceanography discovered in the early 1960s, long-period swells attenuate far less as they travel across open water than shorter-period waves ...

Periodic waves of changing electron density are linked to the ability of some materials to conduct electricity without resistance. ... Pair density waves observed in three superconductors.

In the 1960s and 1970s, the Apollo missions that landed on the moon brought along two kinds of seismometers: one to measure longer-period seismic waves that originated deeper underground, and one ...
