Everyone knows that light travels in a straight line — right? A couple of years back, however, physicists discovered something very different for certain laser pulses that have one intense peak next ...
To investigate the influence of gravity on the propagation of light, researchers usually have to examine astronomical length scales and huge masses. However, physicists have shown that there is ...
Physicists have demonstrated accelerating light beams on flat surfaces, where acceleration has caused the beams to follow curved trajectories. However, a new experiment has pushed the boundaries of ...
