Emmy Noether showed that fundamental physical laws are just a consequence of simple symmetries. A century later, her insights ...

An Isipingo high school unveiled its new digital science centre, with the hopes of enhancing the learning experience for maths and science.

Mathematics and physics have long been regarded as the ultimate languages of the universe, but what if their structure ...

I have weekly meetings with my supervisor, not just discussing the research but also how I'm feeling mentally and what I am doing to prepare myself for the future. It’s an all-round package of making ...

In this post and the next, I want to try out a new idea and see where it leads. It goes back to where magnitude began, which was the desire to unify elementary counting formulas like the ...

The new building’s classrooms and labs will host 326 courses for chemistry, biology, physics, and engineering students. Shirley McManus, dean of the college’s Math, Science and Engineering ...

Topological insulators (TIs) are among the hottest topics in condensed matter physics today. They're a bit strange: Their surfaces conduct electricity, yet their interiors do not, instead acting ...

New research suggests that dark energy isn't needed to explain the acceleration in the expansion of the universe — instead suggesting giant voids in space are creating an illusion. When you ...

Diversity in Living World, Structural Organisation in Plants and Animals, Plant Physiology, Cell Functions, Reproduction, Genetics and Evolution, Human Physiology, Ecology and Environment, Biology ...

Math, though we promise you it really isn't that daunting when you sit down and study it, has a reputation for being a tough subject. People can be put off by the basics, like multiplication ...

The researchers published their findings Dec. 2, 2024 in the journal Reports on Progress in Physics. "For decades, we've had a traditional view of the proton as a collection of quarks and gluons ...

“Instead, the bootstrap uses properties like symmetries or other mathematical criteria to construct the physics from the bottom up, ‘effectively pulling itself up by its bootstraps’. In our study, we ...
