Cycling culture is full of little idiosyncrasies. Some of them we love and respect, like the fact that a water bottle is a ...

In quantum mechanics, the geometry of quantum states has emerged as a powerful framework for understanding phenomena ranging ...

How can the behavior of elementary particles and the structure of the entire universe be described using the same mathematical concepts? This question is at the heart of recent work by the ...

Are two sets of data genuinely different, or is it because of randomness? This question, known as the two-sample testing problem, becomes notoriously difficult in modern datasets, because they are ...

Researchers have discovered a hidden quantum geometry inside materials that subtly steers electrons, echoing how gravity warps light in space. Once thought to exist only on paper, this effect has now ...

Bike manufacturers have a bit of a tinkering habit. New models of our favorite bikes come out laden with the latest tech and adorned in splashy new colors every year. While those features are the ...

Class-leading aero for an all-rounder, and cheaper than a Tarmac… So what’s the catch?

A road bike frame is essentially three big tubes stuck together in a triangle, four thinner ones to support the rear wheel and a fork to hold the front wheel and allow it to turn. But it’s a lot more ...

Quantum materials can be loosely defined as materials for which quantum mechanical effects manifest on a macroscopic scale. Two classes of quantum materials are paradigmatic: superconductors, and ...

We describe a method for designing freeform optics based on the aberration theory of freeform surfaces that guides the development of a taxonomy of starting-point geometries with an emphasis on ...
