A new study revisits a century-old question about how turbulence starts. The findings could potentially influence not only aircraft engineering but even the design of mechanical heart valves, and ...
What governs the speed at which raindrops fall, sediment settles in river estuaries, and matter is ejected during a supernova? These questions circle around one, deceitfully simple factor: the rate at ...
More than a century before quantum mechanics was born, Irish mathematician William Rowan Hamilton stumbled onto an idea that would quietly foreshadow one of the deepest truths in physics. While ...

What does a resistor really do?

Resistors limit the flow of electricity so circuits can operate safely and reliably. This video explains how they work and ...
Friedli, S. and Velenik, Y. Statistical Mechanics of Lattice Systems: A Concrete Mathematical Introduction Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2017. ISBN: 978-1-107-18482-4 DOI: ...
Through the looking glass: In a field increasingly defined by quantum experiments and exotic materials, a physics team at Queen's University in Canada has shown that innovation can also come from the ...
So, what exactly is robotics? At its heart, it’s the field that deals with designing, building, operating, and applying robots. Think of it as the intersection of engineering and computer science, all ...
The government may have to introduce a universal basic income system to allow society to cope with the scale of artificial intelligence stealing people's jobs, a minister has warned. Lord Stockwood ...
Learn how basic physics can be used to estimate solar power output with simple, logical calculations. This video explains solar irradiance, energy conversion, and efficiency in a clear, intuitive ...
This is a pedagogical introduction to the general technique of bosonization of one-dimensional systems starting from scratch and assuming very little besides basic quantum mechanics and second ...
The hydrogen molecule H 2 is the simplest stable molecule, with two protons and two electrons bound together. Scientists have studied it for more than a century because it’s small enough that theory ...
