SINGULAR BEAMS. "For decades, singular beams carrying angular momentum have been a topic of considerable interest. Their intriguing applications are ubiquitous in a variety of fields, ranging from optical manipulation to photon entanglement, and from microscopy and coronagraphy to free-space communications, detection of rotating black holes, and even relativistic electrons and strong-field physics." https://lnkd.in/egDgpRF View in LinkedIn

THE CRAZY FRINGE has had an enormous negative impact on aspects of water research, and most serious academics climbing the ladder would not touch this subject with a barge pole. But some very senior scientists with tenure, who have nothing to loose, have given serious thought to some controversial topics. This is why tenure was created. View in LinkedIn

AIRY INVARIANT. "What sets the Airy wave apart from any other known solution is its very ability to freely accelerate during propagation—even in the absence of any external potential. In one-dimension, the Airy wave is the only non-trivial localized wavefunction that remains invariant with time." https://lnkd.in/exB5jnp View in LinkedIn

"LIQUID WATER only behaves like most other liquids at very high temperatures (i.e. when superheated) but is strange and atypical at low temperatures. Overall, liquid water can be considered an intimate mixture of two miscible phases, one predominant at lower temperatures and the other predominant at higher temperatures." https://lnkd.in/ea8gE-n View in LinkedIn

AIRY BEAMS. "Conventional microparticle transports by light or sound are realized along a straight line. Recently, this limit has been overcome in optics as the growing up of the self-accelerating Airy beams, which are featured by many peculiar properties, e.g., bending propagation, diffraction-free and self-healing." https://lnkd.in/exRnhQ8 View in LinkedIn

"MOLECULAR MOTORS acting on single DNA molecules. RNA polymerases are molecular motors because they use energy to create motion and generate forces in the cell. The forces generated by this motor and the forces required to stall the motor have been directly measured using optical tweezers instruments." https://lnkd.in/eSrxrde View in LinkedIn
