A team of engineers has made major strides in generating the tiniest earthquakes imaginable. The team’s device, known as a surface acoustic wave phonon laser, could one day help scientists make more ...
A magnitude 7.8 earthquake off the southern Philippines sent seismic waves across the planet. The signals, tracked worldwide, showed how a major rupture can make Earth vibrate for hours.
Engineers have created a device that generates incredibly tiny, earthquake-like vibrations on a microchip—and it could transform future electronics. Using a new kind of “phonon laser,” the team can ...
In 2011, Japan reeled from the effects of a devastating magnitude 9.0 earthquake. But unnoticed in the chaos resulting from the quake, its major aftershocks and the tsunami it caused, something ...
