There are nuances to particle movement and energy at tiny scales that one of Einstein’s equations did not capture, according to a paper published in Science this week. Researchers were able to measure ...

What is the Stokes-Einstein Equation? The Stokes-Einstein equation is a fundamental relation in physics that describes the diffusion of spherical particles through a fluid with low Reynolds number. It ...

Motion of a charged particle in magnetic field is described by the change in the direction of motion. It is described as magnetic field which is capable of only changing direction of motion. Motion of ...

Humans have problems with quantum mechanics. We have excellent intuition about the motion of a tennis ball tossed in the air, but what about an electron trapped in a box? The tendency is to use the ...

A 115-year effort to bridge the particle and fluid descriptions of nature has led mathematicians to an unexpected answer. In 1900, the great mathematician David Hilbert presented a list of 23 unsolved ...
