The coldest burst of Arctic air this season is coming to put an icy exclamation point on America's winter of repeated polar vortex invasions, meteorologists warn. And it ...

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - You may have seen what is called a money vortex before. These are a type of bank that have a fun way to deposit money. You drop in a coin, and it spins down the funnel, picking up ...

Researchers have discovered that dense crowds can spontaneously synchronize into collective oscillations, with hundreds of ...

Studying crowd dynamics could inform strategies that help to prevent dense gatherings from becoming dangerous.

A team of Japanese researchers has discovered a method to control Kelvin wave excitation in superfluid helium-4. This ...

In a new study published in Nature Physics, researchers have developed the first controlled method for exciting and observing ...

At the same time we go into a touch milder southwest flow, the polar vortex will still be churning away over northeast Canada. I don’t expect a full onslaught of the polar vortex to shift south ...

Bio-inspired vortex-anchored filter captures more than 97% of floating, underwater and emulsified oils, even under strong turbulent flow ...

The lead authors of the paper are postdoctoral scholar in applied physics Lior Michaeli and graduate student in applied physics Ramon Gao (MS '21), both of Caltech. The goal is to characterize the ...

Research has found that rising temperatures in the Arctic are weakening weather systems that normally trap the cold around ...
