Crows are able to look at a handful of four-sided shapes and correctly distinguish those that exhibit geometric regularity from those that don't, according to a provocative new study. It's the ...

Squares, triangles, circles - these geometric shapes appear everywhere in art and architecture going back all through human history. Geometric regularity seems to be something that the human brain ...

There’s a glow emanating from the windows of Georgia Institute of Technology’s Hinman Research Building, and it’s cast by a collection of unusual geometric lamps. If you’re there at the ...

By measuring the angles and spins of these ejected electrons, scientists can reconstruct the shapes of their wave functions ...

NASA scientists have spotted unusual shapes in the Earth's ionosphere, hundreds of miles above the Earth's surface. The ionosphere stretches from 50 to 400 miles above the planet and marks the ...

They found that the shape of the petals is strongly influenced by the frustration known as the Mainardi-Codazzi-Peterson incompatibility, in which geometric compatibility conditions inherent on a ...
