The 350-year-old mystery of why pendulum clocks hanging from the same wall can influence each other and synchronize over time may hold even more secrets than previously thought, researchers say.

Research showed that the mystery about why pendulum clocks hanging from the same wall synchronize over time has been revealed. In 1665, Dutch physicist Christiaan Huygens, inventor of the pendulum ...

Christiaan Huygens was a busy scholar. Among his many achievements, the Dutch scientist figured out the shape of Saturn's rings and discovered that planet's largest moon, Titan. He founded the theory ...

Physicists at the Ural Federal University (UrFU) have created a theory for the solidification of iron-nickel (Fe-Ni) alloy (invar). They determined that an important role in the technology of creating ...

Scientists may have finally discovered why pendulum clocks synchronise when placed nearby. After 350 years two Portuguese researchers believe that pendulum clocks eventually swing together because of ...

Two professors at the University of Lisbon say they have discovered why the pendulums of clocks set on the same surface will eventually swing together in opposing directions. And now a vexing problem ...

Scientists may have finally solved a 350-year-old mystery of why pendulum clocks hanging from the same wall synchronise over time. Almost 350 years ago, Dutch physicist Christiaan Huygens, inventor of ...

Pendulum clocks made by Mexican clock manufacturer Relojes Centenario were used to investigate the mechanisms behind synchronization. The 350-year-old mystery of why pendulum clocks hanging from the ...
