Physicists Nima Arkani-Hamed and Jaroslav Trnka recently published a significant advance in the study of Scattering Amplitudes. These are formulas that physicists use to calculate everything from the ...
geralt Physicist Richard P. Feinman received the Nobel Prize in Physics for contributing significantly to the development of quantum electrodynamics (QED). One of the achievements of Feynman Feynman ...
Illustration of a polaron The bright sphere is the electron, which is distorting the surrounding lattice. The wavy lines are high-order Feynman diagrams for the electron–phonon interaction. (Courtesy: ...
At the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva, physicists shoot protons around a 17-mile track and smash them together at nearly the speed of light. It’s one of the most finely tuned scientific experiments ...
Illustration of a polaron in a crystal: the central bright sphere is the charge carrier, distorting the surrounding lattice. The wavy lines represent high-order Feynman diagrams for the ...
I've been covering chemistry software in my last few articles, so this time, I decided to move to physics and introduce a package called JaxoDraw. In physics, there's a powerful technique for ...
The next time you get a letter, its stamp might have printed on it examples of one the greatest conceptual tools of modern physics. The tool is a kind of line drawing, and a bunch of those drawings ...
It was World War II and scientists belonging to the Manhattan Project worked on calculations for the atomic bomb. Meanwhile, in one of the buildings, future Nobel Prize winning theoretical physicist ...
Richard Feynman's famous diagrams weren’t just a way to do calculations. They represented a deep shift in thinking about how the universe is put together. Betting on the Future of Quantum Gravity New ...
An unexpected connection has emerged between the results of physics experiments and an important, seemingly unrelated set of numbers in pure mathematics. At the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva, ...
