Achintya Rao reviews When the Uncertainty Principle Goes to 11: Or How to Explain Quantum Physics with Heavy Metal by Philip Moriarty Alternative take: Philip Moriarty uses heavy metal as a basis to ...
A breakthrough that got credit for “simplifying” quantum physics could wipe away some of its more troubling contradictions by pointing out that even those who can calculate it precisely don’t always ...
The continued development of the High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactors (HTGRs) requires verification of HTGR design and safety features with reliable high fidelity physics models and robust, efficient, ...
In the microscopic world of the quantum particle, there are certain rules that are wholly unfamiliar to us on a macroscopic scale. If you measure a particle's position and ask "where are you," the ...
Howard Wiseman does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organization that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond ...
The famous thought experiment known as Schrödinger's cat implies that a cat in a box can be both dead and alive at the same time — a bizarre phenomenon that is a consequence of quantum mechanics. Now, ...
Quantum particles are not really just particles…they are also waves. The word uncertainty is used a lot in quantum mechanics. One school of thought is that this means there's something out there in ...
Physicist Palmer delivers a challenging but rewarding look at how uncertainty helps scientists make sense of the world. Much of the work draws on “the science of chaos,” which Palmer writes has ...
