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 ...
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 ...
Edward Tufte, celebrated statistician and master of informational graphics, transforms physics notations into works of art. If you ask a physicist how particles interact and you have a drawing surface ...
In quantum physics, one of the calculations you might want to do is figure out how two or more particles may interact. This can become rather complicated and confusing once you get to more than two ...
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 ...
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: ...
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 ...
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 ...
This evening BBC2 will show a documentary by Chris Riley about a remarkable man; Richard Feynman. Yesterday, on the 95th anniversary of Feynman's birth, Riley showed some clips and discussed the ...
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 ...
