Researchers at the University of Bayreuth have developed a method that makes objects on a magnetic field invisible within a particle stream. Until now, this so-called cloaking had only been studied ...

Your pervy, Harry Potter-fueled dreams are edging closer to reality, now British scientists have used metamaterials to bend light in a different manner to previous attempts. Now, it works with a ...

A researcher at the University of Texas at Austin has devised an invisibility cloak that could work over a broad range of frequencies, including visible light and microwaves. This is a significant ...

This University of Missouri-developed structured lattice-type material protects against damage from mechanical energy waves, steering them around objects that it encloses. Harry Potter acolytes are ...

The great unappreciated weakness of invisibility cloaks is that they only make things invisible to human eyes. Or x-ray imagers. Or ultraviolet sensors, infrared image analyzers, echo-location audio ...
