By extending a proof of a physically important behavior in one-dimensional quantum spin systems to higher dimensions, a RIKEN ...

In 1931, Harvey Elliott White developed a device that traced out the shapes of electron clouds by approximating solutions to ...

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 ...

A new calculation shows how five atoms interact in the Efimov effect. It marks a major leap in quantum physics. Matter behaves weirdly at the quantum scale, one of the strangest examples being the ...

U-M leads new DOE-funded computational center focused on next-generation hypersonic flight A simulation shows how the surface of a fluid droplet ...

How much faster could engineering progress with an artificial intelligence oracle that could answer any physics question?

A survey of Scientific American’s century of quantum coverage helps explain the enduring popularity of strange physics ...

In 1905, Einstein established relativity under the condition of denying the absolute space-time valid in Newtonian mechanics. In those days, the quantum theory was also established by accepting De ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. At the turn of the 20th century, the renowned mathematician David Hilbert had a grand ambition to bring a more rigorous, mathematical ...

Artificial intelligence can beat world champions at chess, generate stunning artwork, and write code that would take humans days to complete. Yet when it comes to understanding why a ball falls down ...
