You don't have to be in the hot desert or on a long road in the summer to see an optical phenomenon - also known as a mirage - thanks to new scientific innovations. Straight out of sci-fi novel ...

The single-beam mirage effect, also known as photothermal deflection, is studied using a free-standing, highly aligned carbon nanotube aerogel sheet as the heat source. The extremely low thermal ...

Looming: A mirage effect produced by greater-than-normal bending of light traveling through the lower atmosphere, permitting objects that are below the observer’s horizon to be seen.

Texas scientists create "mirage effect" in lab. Oct. 5, 2011 — -- It's hard to write about the experiment done at the University of Texas at Dallas without invoking Harry Potter and his ...

Researchers have created a working invisibility cloak using one of nature’s common yet bizarre phenomena -- the “mirage effect.” The new design from the University of Texas at Dallas was ...

The mirage effect, frequently observed in deserts or on long roads in the summer, is an optical phenomenon in which light rays are bent to produce a displaced image of distant objects or the sky.

Don't know how we missed this scientific breakthrough making the rounds in the last couple of days. Perhaps it was hiding behind sheets of heated-up carbon nanotubes?Those are how you make things ...

MIRAGE effects similar to those referred to in NATURE of January 29 (p. 565) have been noticed by me several times in Birmingham on tarred macadam or woodblock roads. The effect on a hot, sunny ...

Scientists discovered that if they heated the tubes underwater they could create a “mirage effect” to make objects completely disappear. It’s really that simple.
