Seismic waves traveling through Earth's interior often propagate at different speeds depending on their direction, a ...

At the Berlin synchrotron radiation source BESSY II, the largest magnetic anisotropy of a single molecule ever measured experimentally has been determined. The larger this anisotropy is, the better a ...

A new chip-making technique exploits a material's crystal structure to create nanoscale patterns at room temperature directly ...

Fluorescence anisotropy is a measurement of how a molecule changes its orientation in space, with respect to the time between absorption and emission events. Absorption and emission are the core ...

Seismic anisotropy near stagnant slabs in the mantle transition zone and uppermost lower mantle suggests an additional ...

It is critical to always be aware of how material anisotropy might affect a design. A case in point is how anisotropy played a part in an individual getting injured when he tried to loosen the ...

Seismic anisotropy, the intrinsic property of elastic materials that produces the directional dependence of seismic wave speed and polarization has been observed in many regions of the Earth's ...

Anisotropy in action: artistic visualization of a propagating heat wave getting weaker as it approaches the top of the layered material, while spreading out in other directions. (Courtesy: ...

Georgetown University researchers have discovered a new class of strong magnets that do not rely on rare-earth or precious metals—a breakthrough that could significantly advance clean energy ...
