Geometry has surprising consequences for the behaviour of matter. Living in three dimensions, we're familiar with liquids that abruptly freeze into solids, or crystals under pressure that suddenly ...
In physics classes it is taught to include units when evaluating formulas with values and to always check that the units work out right in equations. That way we easily detect if we forgot to square a ...
Dimensional Analysis (DA) is a widely used methodology in physics and engineering. The main idea of DA is to extract dimensionless variables based on physical dimensions. Due to its capability in ...
A sophisticated analysis of experimental ARPES data confirmed that the electronic properties of each chain are truly one-dimensional, and calculations further predict an exciting phase transition. For ...
A thin flake of ordinary carbon, just one atom thick, lies behind this year's Nobel Prize in Physics. Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov have shown that carbon in such a flat form has exceptional ...
A physicist proposes that time has three dimensions instead of one, which could finally unite quantum mechanics and Einstein’s relativity into a single theory. The theory makes specific, testable ...
Abstract: The AFOSR MURI effort, titled “A Robust Multi-Physics Design Analysis and Optimization Framework for Hypersonic Systems Grounded in Rigorous Model Reduction,” unites a multi-disciplinary ...
