Scientists have hypothesized for over six decades the possibility of observing a form of wave reflections known as temporal, or time, reflections. Researchers detail a breakthrough experiment in which ...
Physicists have finally turned a long standing thought experiment into a laboratory reality, showing that electromagnetic waves can be reflected in time as cleanly as light bounces off a mirror in ...
In everyday life, reflections feel simple. Light bounces off a bathroom mirror so you see your face, and sound bounces off walls so you hear an echo in a gym. Physicists call that kind of bounce a ...
Time reflections, or spatial reflections, occur when "electromagnetic radiation in the form of light or sound waves hit a mirror or wall, respectively," resulting in a reflection, like a mirror image ...
Through the looking glass: Scientists at the City University of New York (CUNY) created a "mirror" that can reflect an electromagnetic wave backward in time. It is not the first time this has been ...
NEW YORK, March 13, 2023 — When we look in a mirror, we are used to seeing our faces looking back at us. The reflected images are produced by electromagnetic light waves bouncing off of the mirrored ...
