Disclaimer: I am very much a physics noob. This might be a nonsensical question. That spacetime can be curved or warped is something I can grasp, but I keep getting stuck on one specific aspect of how ...
For years, physicists have worked towards the ability to directly measure Berry curvature. Often discussed as a “holy grail,” this observation has seemed impossible to make until now. Berry curvature ...
In a dual set of papers published in Science last week, an international group of researchers presented an experiment which used relativistic time dilation to measure the curvature of spacetime. The ...
Heavy duty: Ultracold atoms could soon be making gravity anomaly maps like this one of Australia. (Courtesy: Australia Geoscience) The curvature of a gravitational field across a distance of about 1 m ...
Dry eye disease significantly impacts the reliability of corneal curvature measurements, affecting clinical decisions in refractive surgery and contact lens fitting. The study tested five devices, ...
