BUFFALO, N.Y. — Last year, onlookers observed a startling site on China’s Qiantang River: waves forming a grid-like pattern. Dubbed the “matrix tide,” this complex wave pattern was caused by the river ...

Charge density waves (CDWs) are ordered, crystal-like patterns in the arrangement of electrons that spontaneously form inside some solid materials. These patterns can change how electricity flows ...

There’s a connection between wave types that scientists once thought were fundamentally different.

Scientists have discovered a universal pattern of brain waves in multiple primate species, including humans. This pattern of electrical activity is seen in the six layers of tissue that cover the ...
