In 2021, a team led by Dr Gary Kinsland of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette found evidence that the impact and resulting tsunami left "megaripples" of sediment 16 meters (53 feet) high and 600 ...
A breakthrough study has provided the most detailed 3D look yet at the inner workings of the Tonga Subduction Zone, where ...
So-called Rayleigh–Bloch waves can release an enormous amount of energy that can damage technical systems under certain circumstances. They only exist below a precisely defined cut-off frequency ...
High-Resolution Anisotropic Tomography Reveals Mantle Flow Complexity and Slab-Plume Interactions, Redefining Subduction Zone ...
The numerous stainless steel struts aligned parallel to each other are also ideal for generating Rayleigh–Bloch waves. These are vibrations that propagate from gap to gap between the struts and ...
As light waves enters the atmosphere, they begin to scatter in all directions by collisions with atoms and molecules. This is called Rayleigh scattering, named after Lord Rayleigh. The color of ...
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, blocking sunlight from reaching the Moon. This ...
It arises due to the wave nature of light and the physical limitations of focusing ... is determined by the ability to distinguish two closely spaced Airy disks. The Rayleigh criterion is a commonly ...
