    Newton’s Laws Sir Isaac Newton, the man who developed the first theories of gravitation, also introduced the three laws of motion. These laws essentially changed the field of physics in an astounding manner – it paved the way to modern science. Let’s look at these laws in some more detail: Newton’s first law: It states that an object will remain at rest or in a uniform motion, unless an external force acts on it. This is basically also the definition for inertia. In other words, the state of…

    formulas, most of the things in math that we do today would be impossible. Almost all of his ideas and discoveries are still used today. His microscope, his laws of motion, his calculus, law of universal gravitation, and his foundation for modern physics is all still used to this day. His impact is comparable to the impact of figures like Plato, Aristotle, and even Galileo. Not every one of his ideas led him to success. Sure, guys like Leibniz were more successful in different subjects like…

    Ultrafast Electron Microscopy has been demonstrated to be an effective table-top technique for imaging the temporally-evolving dynamics of matter with subparticle spatial resolution on the time scale of atomic motion. A stringent enhancement of the UEM temporal resolution is demanded for recording snapshots of the electron motion which will provide a real-time access to all microscopic motions outside the atomic core and radically change our insight into the workings of the microcosm. Here, we…
