Altermagnets are a newly recognized class of antiferromagnets whose magnetic structure behaves very differently from what is ...

So I've been familiar with the basics of polarization since forever, but I recently realized circular polarization is a mystery to me. I've heard of it in conjunction with eg satellite broadcasts, but ...

An electromagnetic wave or signal traveling from “here” to “there” has an electrostatic field component that we call its E-field and whose direction we assign as the signal’s polarity. Often, the ...
