Topological insulators are materials that are insulating in their interior but can support the flow of electrons on their surface. The underlying cause is time-reversal symmetry: their physics is ...

Abstract: Accurate localization and classification of defects in insulator images captured by UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) are critical for the maintenance of high-voltage power transmission grids.

There comes a time during dish-washing duty when you have to empty your sink strainer. After a few minutes of catching bits of food scraped off of plates and cups, you probably pause to tap it on ...
