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 ...

Pattern is having a major moment, and zebra print has stepped confidently into the spotlight as the animal motif of the season. As the interiors world moves on from the restraint of quiet luxury, ...

Scientists have discovered a new, persistent pattern in Earth's inner radiation belt using data from the twin NASA Van Allen Probes spacecraft. Most surprisingly, the pattern is produced by the slow ...

Most pulsar radio emissions are spectrally broader and noisy — not banded so cleanly like the Crab Pulsar. An NASA image of the Crab Nebula seen by the James Webb Space Telescope. LAWRENCE — For the ...

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.
