Using Einstein’s equations in a wild way: A nuclear engineer reacts to PBS Space Time
A nuclear engineer reacts to PBS Space Time’s wild application of Einstein’s equations, exploring the physics behind the ...
Silicon Valley may end mathematical trophy hunting by making sport of it. But the modern mathematical landscape is so much ...
A new experiment found that a falling quantum wave behaves just as Einstein’s equivalence principle predicts. The result ...
The UChicago mathematics professor spoke to the Maroon about his work proving one of the decade’s most important results in mathematical physics.
Hidden correspondences hint at a deeper structure to the mathematical universe. Our columnist unpacks one of those connections and asks mathematicians what they might mean.
At the beginning of the 20th century, classical physics appeared nearly complete. Newton's laws explained motion, Maxwell's equations described electromagnetism, and thermodynamics governed heat.
Physicists have directly observed a long-predicted quantum effect of gravity, putting one of Einstein’s foundational ideas to ...
The 2D MOT apparatus which feeds the science chamber with cold atoms. At the centre is a glass cell held under vacuum between coils producing magnetic fields. The atoms go into the science chamber ...
Einstein’s abandoned cosmological constant made a spectacular comeback when astronomers discovered that the universe’s expansion is accelerating. It now sits at the heart of our best cosmological ...
