Such projects are often fun for students and teachers. Teachers are often intrigued and amazed by students’ ideas and ...

TWA is one such semiclassical approach that dates back to the 1970s, but is limited to isolated, idealized quantum systems ...

The amplituhedron is a geometric shape with an almost mystical quality: Compute its volume, and you get the answer to a central calculation in physics about how particles interact. Now, a young ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) Progress in the foundations of physics is moving slowly. And yet it moves. Today I look at the five biggest problems in physics, what their status is, and how long it will ...

As enrollment numbers for the introductory chemistry and physics courses reach around 600 students each this semester, the ...

Encouraged early on by Nobel laureate Enrico Fermi, the “Queen of Carbon” laid the foundation for countless advances in ...

Engineers at Duke University have constructed a group of AI bots that together can solve complex design problems nearly as ...

Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

In 1945, as the first atomic bomb exploded in the New Mexico desert, Enrico Fermi stood miles away, holding a few scraps of ...

Auburn scientists create materials that let researchers control free electrons, opening paths to faster computing and cleaner ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

Thinking about science and technology in terms of return on investment misses the point. Here’s what kids really need to know ...
