Dive into Part 3 of our series on spherical coordinates as we demystify velocity and acceleration in three-dimensional space. This video breaks down complex concepts with clear explanations and ...

Master vector derivatives in polar coordinates with this clear physics tutorial! Learn step-by-step how to compute derivatives, understand radial and angular components, and apply them to mechanics ...

Laurent Simons became one of the world’s youngest PhD recipients in November, earning a doctorate in quantum physics from the University of Antwerp. The 15-year-old boy now plans to pursue a second ...

Time crystals could one day provide a reliable foundation for ultra-precise quantum clocks, new mathematical analysis has revealed. Published in Physical Review Letters, the research was led by ...

Federal officials seized 3,000 copies of Scientific American in 1950 in a “red scare” era of attacks on science. The move backfired and offers lessons for today ...

Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is the rarest form of psoriasis, a chronic autoimmune skin condition. Unlike other forms, GPP can be severe or even life-threatening. The disease causes flares of ...

What is quantum physics? Put simply, it’s the physics that explains how everything works: the best description we have of the nature of the particles that make up matter and the forces with which they ...

Theoretical physics is the development of mathematical formalisms and computational protocols for describing all aspects of objects found in the world around us and their interaction. This can involve ...

Real-world optimization problems often require an external “modeling engine” that computes fitnesses or data that are then input to an objective function. These programs often have much longer ...

Quantum physics is the study of matter and energy at its most fundamental level. A central tenet of quantum physics is that energy comes in indivisible packets called quanta. Quanta behave very ...

Abstract: In this letter, we demonstrate that previously proposed improved state parameterizations for soft and continuum robots are specific cases of Clarke coordinates. By explicitly deriving these ...
