In 1900, at the grand amphitheater of the Sorbonne in Paris, David Hilbert stood before a crowd of mathematicians and ...

How do they get us off the hook? In classical statistical mechanics, the probabilities that define entropy reflect our ignorance, as lamented above. Quantum mechanics, by contrast, famously ...

Light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, challenging traditional wave-particle thinking.

Quantum mechanics is the study of the dynamics of particles at its most fundamental level. The state of a particle, such as its position or momentum, is described by a statistical distribution ...

are able to compute (numerically and analytically) thermodynamic quantities and correlation functions in equilibrium for quantum mechanical and classical models in statistical mechanics using various ...

Lake Havasu City residents got a rare treat Sunday: cool rain and cloudy skies that broke the early May heat. But the ...

Furthermore, because gravitational interactions are weak, more precision is needed to study true quantum gravity effects beyond general relativity, which is a classical theory. "A quantum theory ...

A Soviet-era spacecraft meant to land on Venus in the 1970s is expected to soon plunge uncontrolled back to Earth, possibly ...

A steady downpour Sunday afternoon cooled Lake Havasu City, keeping evening temperatures near 60 degrees Fahrenheit with damp, breezy conditions. Residents experienced light winds and a total of 0.04 ...

The world’s oceans are heating faster in two bands stretching around the globe, one in the southern hemisphere and one in the ...

A theoretical study by RIKEN physicists, published in Physics Letters B, has accurately determined the interaction between a ...

Studying quantum systems by peeking inside often ends up disturbing them, but a new approach involving shadows can overcome ...
