Rotating bodies often move in surprising ways with flips and wobbles that reveal the hidden rules of physics. Dodgers great Clayton Kershaw ends his career unaware at first that he won the World ...

Shannon Pruden receives funding from National Institutes of Child Health and Human Development and National Science Foundation. Karinna Rodriguez does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive ...

What do puzzles, gymnastics, writing and using maps all have in common? They all rely on people’s ability to visualize objects as they spin, flip or turn in space, without physically moving them. This ...

The world is filled with rotating objects—gyroscopes, magnetic spins, and more recently, qubits in quantum computers. For example, the atomic nuclei in our bodies precess at megahertz frequencies ...

It sounds bizarre, but they exist: crystals made of rotating objects. Physicists from Aachen, Düsseldorf, Mainz and Wayne State (Detroit, U.S.) have jointly studied these exotic objects and their ...

The work by Distinguished Professor Tsvi Tlusty at UNIST has been published in the October 2025 issue of Phys. Rev. Lett. The world is filled with rotating objects—gyroscopes, magnetic spins, and more ...

Physicists have uncovered the fascinating world of “rotating crystals” — solids made of spinning particles that behave in strange, almost living ways. These odd materials can twist instead of stretch, ...

Abstract: Eddy currents induced by rotating magnetic dipole fields can produce forces and torques that enable dexterous manipulation of conductive nonmagnetic objects. This paradigm shows promise for ...

Abstract: LiDAR is one of the most important sensors in the field of autonomous driving and allows for better and more accurate perception of the changes in the surrounding environment. Most of the ...

Some of the many paths that can be taken through the mathematical space SO(3), corresponding to sequences of rotations in real space. Credit: Tsvi Tlusty. If you twist something — say, spin a top or ...

FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. — After declaring indefinite strike action for more than a month, Canada Post workers in Fort St. John have now joined the nationwide list of rotating strikes. Canadian Union of ...
