Black physicists say efforts to recruit and retain more Black students must concentrate on challenges they face at both Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Primarily White Institutions.
The 'three-body problem,' the term coined for predicting the motion of three gravitating bodies in space, is essential for understanding a variety of astrophysical processes as well as a large class ...
Using artificial intelligence, physicists have compressed a daunting quantum problem that until now required 100,000 equations into a bite-size task of as few as four equations—all without sacrificing ...
John Hopfield, one of this year’s winners of the Nobel Prize in Physics, is a true polymath. His career started with probing the physics of solid states during the field’s heyday in the 1950s before ...
The namesake behind Netflix's new sci-fi series is an unsolvable physics problem that has baffled scientists for centuries. Paul Sutter breaks down the real three-body problem — and why nobody can ...
Throughout the semester, our department invites the graduate students to participate in a problem solving competition. One problem will be offered per round of competition, and we will have a few ...
As a physics major, it feels like I spend the majority of my waking life solving problems. I’ve calculated the amount of water you get from mixing different ratios of steam and ice, the path of ...
