The course aims to give a brief and self-contained introduction to the mathematical methods of quantum mechanics. Although the materials are related to physics, they are presented in a more ...

Physicists are quietly advancing a radical idea: time might not be a single, thin line but a full three‑dimensional landscape ...

It has long been a mystery why pure math can reveal so much about the nature of the physical world. Antimatter was discovered in Paul Dirac’s equations before being detected in cosmic rays. Quarks ...

The laws of physics imply that the passage of time is an illusion. To avoid this conclusion, we might have to rethink the reality of infinitely precise numbers. Strangely, although we feel as if we ...

Quantum mechanics has long provided a vibrant framework for understanding the microscopic world, with mathematical constructs such as orthogonal polynomials playing a pivotal role. These specialised ...

This online data science specialization is ideal for engineers seeking to acquire a fundamental understanding of quantum mechanics. You will learn basic concepts including superposition and ...

Quantum computing is slowly entering the mainstream, as more people discuss the technology and its potential within ...

Theoretical physicists are trying to understand how the many possibilities that exist in quantum physics can become 'real.' A new model developed by UC Davis researchers suggests that there may be ...

Quantum walks sound abstract, but they sit at the center of a very concrete race: who will harness quantum mechanics to solve ...

Scientists are like prospectors, excavating the natural world seeking gems of knowledge about physical reality. And in the century just past, scientists have dug deep enough to discover that reality’s ...
