Maxwell’s equations of electromagnetism and the Euler equation top a poll to find the greatest equations of all time. Robert P Crease discusses the results of his reader survey First among equals – ...
All the tech we rely on, from cars to smartphones, was engineered using physics. You don’t need to know the science to use these things. But a well-rounded human should understand at least some of the ...
Math, specifically calculus, is a barrier to many natural sciences, technology and engineering fields. Physics, which is math-heavy, often proves similarly challenging to students who wish to pursue ...
Did you know that, at a certain point on a moving wheel... there's no motion? Did you know that, at a certain point on a moving wheel... there's no motion? I mean, kinda... it's all relative, right?
Over the weekend, cosmologist and author Sean Carroll tweeted about what physics majors should know, namely that "the Standard Model is an SU(3)xSU(2)xU(1) gauge theory, and know informally what that ...
Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) represent a burgeoning paradigm in computational science, whereby deep learning frameworks are augmented with explicit physical laws to solve both forward and ...
Artificial intelligence (AI) systems, particularly artificial neural networks, have proved to be highly promising tools for uncovering patterns in large amounts of data that would otherwise be ...
For more than a century, gravity and quantum physics have stubbornly resisted a common language, one describing the smooth ...
In January I wrote a piece titled “5 Physics Equations Everyone Should Know.” Lots of you weighed in with your own nominations, and there were plenty of good suggestions. So I’ve decided to do a ...
