For the past two decades, scientists have wondered about a bright, distinct striped pattern seen in radio waves emanating ...
A theoretical astrophysicist may have solved a nearly two-decade-old mystery over the origins of an unusual 'zebra' pattern seen in high-frequency radio pulses from the Crab Nebula. A theoretical ...
Scientists think they have solved how the zebra got its stripes - and the answer is far from black and white. They say the distinctive monochrome pattern keeps the animals cool under the hot African ...
Medvedev modeled wave diffraction off a circular reflecting region with radially varying index of refraction outside of it to better understand the Crab Nebula’s zebra pattern.
