An experiment 180 years ago first demonstrated a connection between light and electromagnetism – but the link is deeper than ...

Light is often thought to reflect from a flat surface at the same angle at which it is incident. Nature Photonics spoke to Han Woerdman about the observation of angular deviations of reflected beams.

Science is redefined day in and day out, with new experiments pushing the boundaries of reality and existence. The Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) paradox detailed how quantum theory can not be ...

The effect is known from the smart phone: Sun is reflected by the display and hardly anything can be seen. In contrast to this, the glasswing butterfly hardly reflects any light in spite of its ...

The film explores the dual nature of light, demonstrating its behavior as both a wave and a particle through an experiment involving a double slit. It shows how light creates an interference pattern, ...

If you shine a light at a mirror, the beam is reflected inward to a central focal point, bouncing back toward you in a predictable manner—it’s a simple reflection of light, a spatial inversion. When a ...
