Virtual particles may not be real, but they help physicists track how forces move, and allow for incredibly precise ...

"With this, we can detect very tiny changes in both position and momentum at once, beyond the limit of any classical sensor," the authors explained.

Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

The Experimental Astronomy and Space Physics research group at Lowell Center for Space Science and Technology (LoCSST) is led by professors Supriya Chakrabarti, Timothy Cook and Christopher Mendillo.

Einstein’s theories contain calculations that lead to mind-bending predictions about the nature of space, time, and reality itself. These mathematical outcomes have redefined physics and challenged ...

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 ...

About 100 miles up in the sky, where the upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere meet, is a region of the Earth’s atmosphere dubbed the “ignorosphere.” Too high for weather balloons to reach and too ...

With $2 million in backing from an anonymous alumnus, Duke research will soon reach new heights. Last week, the Trinity College of Arts & Sciences announced a new multidisciplinary initiative that ...
