Everett, Wash.-based Wave Motion Launch Corp. has won a contract worth nearly $1.6 million from the U.S. Army to continue development of its Jet Gun technology. Wave Motion’s Jet Gun concept involves ...

The control of matter motion at liquid–gas interfaces opens an opportunity to create two-dimensional materials with remotely tunable properties. In analogy with optical lattices used in ultra-cold ...

So far, the team has measured several effects, including wave steepening, shock fronts and solitary wave fission thanks to the chip. While these nonlinear behaviours had been predicted in superfluids, ...
