Researchers hint that the prevalence of counterclockwise hair whorls in people living in the southern hemisphere could be down to environmental factors - the Coriolis force, perhaps?
Lasers are devices that concentrate beams of light by forcing their waveforms and frequencies to align.
An international group of physicists from the University of California at San Diego and Extreme Light Infrastructure-Nuclear Physics facility in Romania devised an experiment that uses a tightly focused high-power laser with a peak power density of 5×1022 W/cm2 to generate a magnetic field as strong as that of a neutron star (100 million times stronger than Earth's magnetic field).
