Scientists learnt to make objects invisible without metamaterial cloaking
… for almost a century. However, this classical problem contains unusual physics that manifests itself when materials with high values of refractive index are involved. In the study, the scientists used ordinary water whose refractive index can be regulated by changing temperature. As it turned out, high refractive index is associated with two scattering mec…

Russian and American scientists have discovered previously unknown immune cells mechanisms
…ed analysis of metabolic changes of macrophages, which allows "looking" into the mechanisms that regulate metabolic reactions. Reactions are an important part of our body; we study, particularly, biochemical ones: converting some substances in others, the synthesis of amino acids, the glucose decomposition and others. A method developed allows us to understand how th…

New properties of topological insulators will be used in the creation of quantum computers
…tates are stable to scattering. The discovery of graphene - a two-dimensional material of carbon atoms, which, being not a topological insulator - also prompted scientists to study similar systems. Our work is devoted to the optical analog of solid topological insulators, in which not electrons are distributed, but the electromagnetic waves or light. Such structures …
