Quantum mechanics, unlike classical physics, allows objects to exist in more than one state at the same time. This idea is ...

Classical physics encompasses the principles that govern macroscopic bodies, fields and continua in regimes where quantum and relativistic effects may be neglected. At its foundation lie Newton’s laws ...

The planar Hall effect is a tabletop diagnostic tool for special quantum properties useful in basic research and ...

With simple arguments, researchers show that nature is complicated! Researchers have made a simple experiment that demonstrates that nature violates common sense. The experiment illustrates that light ...

During its teenage and young adult years—what is now referred to as its “classical” period—physics made a lot of mistakes. In the old physics, mass and energy were separately conserved; particles’ ...

Researchers have proposed a new interpretation of classical physics without real numbers. This new study challenges the traditional view of classical physics as deterministic. Researchers from the ...

This month Tom Rother, scientist at IMF, published the book “Green’s Functions in Classical Physics” in the book series Lecture Notes in Physics released by Springer. The book presents the Green’s ...
