It is a matter for celebration when two illustrious theoreticians such as Kip Thorne and Roger Blandford provide an in-depth description of the fundamentals of classical physics. Modern Classical ...

Delivering the lectures this spring will be UChicago postdoctoral scholar Yu-Chen Tung. His lectures will begin with the application of symmetry to classical physics and how the concept became ...

To obtain a strong foundation in classical physics, we recommend taking a two-semester sequence of either algebra-based general physics (PHYS 107/PHYS 108) or calculus-based general physics (PHYS ...

Thirst for physics: Leonard Susskind's popular series of lectures for the general public have been compiled in this book. (Courtesy: Linda A Cicero/Stanford News Service) The mantra for ...

Step into the fascinating world of physics as we uncover the mystery behind the Ultraviolet Catastrophe, a turning point that ...

Researchers have discovered a potentially important piece of the quantum/classical puzzle -- learning how the rules of physics in the quantum world (think smaller than microscopic) change when ...

The problem with introductory courses isn't that classical Newtonian physics is inherently less interesting than quantum physics and relativity, but that we don't do enough to make that material ...

In the everyday world that humans experience, objects behave in a predictable way, explained by classical physics. One of the important aspects of classical physics is that nothing, not even ...

Scientists are a little bit closer to unlocking the mystery of how the rules of the quantum realm translate to the rules of the classical physics of the observable world. Experts predict that the ...

Caltech President Thomas Rosenbaum will join Purdue President Mung Chiang on April 10 for a Presidential Lecture Series conversation about the next quantum revolution.
