Protons give an atom its identity, electrons its personality.
...in principle, one can predict everything in the universe solely from physical laws. Thus, the long-standing 'first cause' problem intrinsic in cosmology has been finally dispelled.
When you view your world exclusively through the lens of science, your prescription will never be strong enough.
Another very good test some readers may want to look up, which we do not have space to describe here, is the Casimir effect, where forces between metal plates in empty space are modified by the presen...
[On the practical applications of particle physics research with the Large Hadron Collider.]Sometimes the public says, 'What's in it for Numero Uno? Am I going to get better television reception? Am I...
Deep down, nature is inherently peaceful, calm and beautiful. The universe as a whole is perfect. The chaos is on the surface.
The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself.
In the world of the very small, where particle and wave aspects of reality are equally significant, things do not behave in any way that we can understand from our experience of the everyday world...a...
Theology, philosophy, metaphysics, and quantum physics are merely ways for God to have his smart people believe in him
Heisenberg's uncertainty relation measures the amount by which the complementary descriptions of the electron, or other fundamental entities, overlap. Position is very much a particle property - parti...
Please beware, came his reply, There are a lot of people who believe that just because we don't have an explanation for something, it's quantum mechanics.
