In certain places, we find that the gravitational handiwork of some distant orbiting moon has disturbed the orbits of ring particles, creating sharp edges or wave disturbances that propagate out in a spiral pattern.

These waves can reflect off sharp discontinuities in particle concentrations and interfere with themselves and one another, creating a chaotic - looking geography.

Researchers now can tackle the mystery of why the winds create sooty waves of dust particles for only a few months during each 8 - year orbit, Williams says.

Shock waves create energetic subatomic particles called cosmic rays, which can tear apart biomolecules and damage DNA beyond repair.

«When scientists designed the mission and the instrumentation on the probes, they looked at the scientific unknowns and said, «This is a great chance to unlock some fundamental knowledge about how particles are accelerated,»» said Nicola J. Fox, deputy project scientist at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, Md. «With five identical suites of instruments on board twin spacecraft — each with a broad range of particle and field and wave detection — we have the best platform ever created to better understand this critical region of space above Earth.»

Physicists Moses Chan and Eun - Song Kim of Pennsylvania State University report they have created a supersolid, a frictionless phase of matter in which atoms behave more like a unified wave than separate particles.

In topological insulators and the new class of materials the Princeton researchers studied, the unique properties of the atoms combine to create quantum effects that coax electrons into acting similar to a light wave instead of like individual particles.

In a 2013 paper, the authors theorized that nano - structures are created by nano - particles in the remedy in water in order to produce such waves.
