This study provides an important and biologically plausible account of how human perceptual judgments of heading direction are influenced by a specific pattern of motion in optic flow fields known as ...

A team of international researchers, including an Aston University researcher, has cracked the code on how ‘breather’ laser ...

Scientists have unveiled a breakthrough imaging method that can capture the hidden details of events unfolding in trillionths ...

The dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) serotonergic (5-HT) system has been implicated in regulating sleep and motor control; however, its specific role remains controversial. In this study, we found that ...

In the quirky quantum world, particles can be affected by forces that they never directly encounter. A classic example is the ...

Optical sensors are a broad class of device for detecting light intensity. This can be just a simple component for notifying when ambient light levels rise above or fall below a prescribed level, or a ...

Nonlinear optics is the study of how intense light interacts with matter. The optical response of a material usually scales linearly with the amplitude of the electric field. At high powers, however, ...
