Electromagnetic scattering theory describes how incident electromagnetic waves interact with particles, surfaces and complex structures, redistributing energy into reflected, transmitted and ...

In both the natural world and human society, there commonly exist complex systems, such as climate systems, ecological systems, and network systems. Due to the involvement of numerous interacting ...

Inverse scattering theory investigates the reconstruction of unknown objects or media by analysing how incident waves are scattered. At its core, the theory combines partial differential equations, ...

Light scattering as the basis for size determination of many objects has been explored for a long time. It was Gustav Mie, author of the Mie Scattering Theory, who studied gold nanoparticles in ...

String theory aims to explain all fundamental forces and particles in the universe—essentially, how the world operates on the smallest scales. Though it has not yet been experimentally verified, work ...

A recent article published in APL Materials defines metamaterials as artificial structures composed of subwavelength, atomic, or molecular-level components, possessing unique properties (such as ...
