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

The findings resolve a long-standing problem in fundamental physics. Scientists at Hiroshima University have created a practical and highly sensitive method for detecting the Unruh effect, a ...

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 ...

Why do some elements decay in minutes, while others last billions of years? Certain "magic numbers" of nuclear particles may ...

The first law of thermodynamics is one of the bedrock laws of physics. Even if you’re not gung-ho for physics research, you ...

Graphene is stronger than steel and a better conductor that copper, making the two-dimensional material of particular ...

David Silver of Google DeepMind thinks AIs that ‘learn by experience’ are the future of AI – but maybe not in particle ...
