During the latter part of the 20th century, string theory was put forward as a unifying theory of physics foundations ... found a unified framework to accommodate the theory of electricity and ...

I had a freshly minted bachelor’s degree in physics from Harvard ... unification baton for the next leg, showing that electricity and magnetism are two aspects of a single force described ...

Scientists have long been puzzled by strange metals, materials that don’t follow the usual rules of electricity and magnetism. Now ... properties can’t be easily explained using standard physics. To ...

Strange metals challenge the 60-year-old theory that electric current consists of a flow of discrete charges. Strange metals ...

Quasicrystals, exotic states of matter characterized by an ordered structure with non-repeating spatial patterns, have been ...

IN his deservedly celebrated treatise on “Sound,” the late Sir John Herschel felt himself justified in saying, “It is vain to conceal the melancholy truth. We are fast dropping behind.

A study has found a rare form of one-dimensional quantum magnetism in a metallic compound, offering evidence into a phase space that has remained, until now, largely theoretical. The study comes at a ...

Classical physics theories suggest that when two or more electromagnetic waves interfere destructively (i.e., with their ...

Electricians know the importance of discovering the mechanisms by means of which electric and magnetic forces are transmitted through space. When the nature of these mechanisms is discovered ...

In RIT’s physics degree, you’ll gain an in-depth understanding of the basic principles governing the structure and behavior of matter, the generation and transfer of energy, and the interactions of ...

What’s the connection between motion and magnetism? How can something like a black hole have a magnetic field? What’s the connection to quantum mechanics? How did Einstein use magnetism to develop ...
