As showing how far under favourable conditions the reflection of light from a cloudy sky is visible, I may perhaps be allowed to mention that last night at nine o'clock the reflection of the London ...

Can we turn back time? Ask a savvy physicist, and the answer will be “it depends.” Schemes for retrograde time travel abound but usually involve irreconcilable paradoxes and rely on outlandish ...

Scientists have been unable to confirm the existence of time reflection due to the amount of energy required to create a ...

Researchers demonstrate a new technique for suppressing back reflections of light, leading to better signal quality for sensing and information technology. Researchers demonstrate a new technique for ...

Owing to the wave nature of light there are many ways that such different waves can interact with each other, but also with materials. Everyone knows about reflecting light with a mirror, which is a ...

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 ...

For more than half a century, the idea that light or radio waves could suddenly reverse in time sounded like a thought experiment, not a laboratory result. Now, a series of meticulous experiments has ...
