A team of physicists say they have found a way to sidestep Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, one of the more troublesome ...
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 ...
Graphene is stronger than steel and a better conductor that copper, making the two-dimensional material of particular ...
Using the Open Exoplanet Catalog and NASA’s Eye on Exoplanets website provides new way to study Kepler’s and Newton’s laws ...
The Physics Help Center, located in Sharp Lab 101B, is a place where students in introductory physics and astronomy courses can come for assistance with homework, studying, lab reports and other ...
A virtual laboratory under development at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro aims to let students experiment with physics concepts without physically being in a lab. Computer simulations ...
Early Homo sapiens wasn't acquainted with Einstein's general theory of relativity, yet anyone in a physics class today is expected to understand its basic tenets. “How is it that our ancient brains ...
A machine learning model used neural decoding to show how we think about abstract concepts like electrical current and diffraction. The results could change how we teach physics. Share on Facebook ...
A shortage of high school physics teachers has led to teachers with little-to-no training taking over physics classrooms, reports show. This has led to additional stress and job dissatisfaction for ...
The Department of Physics offers a research-intensive, two-year program leading to the Master of Science degree. During the two years in the program, students are required to demonstrate proficiency ...
