The International Isle of Man TT is a crazy motorcycle race. I mean—it's seriously ludicrous. They ride on public roads (yes, they are closed to normal traffic) such that you get these videos of bikes ...

Scientists have detected the Doppler effect — a quirk of physics that makes an ambulance's siren change pitch as it drives by — on the scale of a single molecule. The Doppler effecthas been understood ...

The Doppler shift of sound or light waves from a moving source is familiar to physicists and non-physicists alike. Now, researchers in China and Australia have seen the more exotic inverse Doppler ...

What if the speed of light is a constant only most of the time? What if gravity sometimes pushed instead of pulled? Scientists are increasingly asking what would seem like far-out questions regarding ...

The autonomous and compact High-altitude Imaging Wind and Rain Profiler, or HIWRAP, a dual-frequency conical-scanning Doppler radar, will hang under NASA's aircraft's belly as it flies above ...

The Doppler effect is an observed change in pitch (how high or low a sound is) when either the source of the sound or the listener is in motion. Imagine a car, its horn blaring, approaching you as you ...

This is the fifth and final instalment of our “five amazing physics demonstrations” presented by science-demo guru Neil Downie and his adept assistant Matthew Isbell. In a special feature in the April ...

Born Nov. 29, 1803, in Salzburg, Austria, Christian Doppler studied mathematics, physics, and astronomy at the University of Vienna. After struggling to secure an academic post and working as a ...

Machine learning models are being used more and more widely. However, they need a lot of training data to deliver good results. In industrial applications, this wealth of data is often not available ...

MADISON — What if the speed of light is a constant only most of the time? What if gravity sometimes pushed instead of pulled? Scientists are increasingly asking what would seem like far-out questions ...
