    in Princeton, New Jersey.He was also the person who discovered the string theory.Which states “that subatomic particles, instead of being single points, are actually strings, oscillating (vibrating) a certain way.” He also discovered a couple more theories. Edward Written was born August 26, 1951, in Baltimore, Maryland. He was born part of a Jewish family. His parents were Lorraine W Witten and his father was Louis Witten. His father was a theoretical physicist who specialized in gravitation…

    events when envisaged from a system which is in motion relatively to that system” In 1905 German physicist Albert Einstein published the first paper of a new age of Physics. His theory of special relativity, followed by general relativity and the Einstein Field Equations in 1915, and the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics in 1925 combined to form a more significant shift in natural philosophy…

    physics and math. After graduating, I worked in a government office. Meanwhile, I continued studying physics on my own. Q: Which area of science did you work in? A: I was in Theoretical Physics. My research was related to Universal Physics and Quantum Physics. A Theoretical physicist has a job that combines observation with mathematics in order to create complex formulas that describe the workings of the universe around us. Q: What did you discover…

    This means, in this scenario the electron motion is diffusive and green functions are nearly isotropic. Usadel’s approach not only deals to ‘strongly dirty’ samples but also ‘moderately dirty’ samples. The theory of upper critical field for MgB2 was developed separately by Alex Gurevich [133], and Golubov and Koshelov [134]. Their theoretical models are based on multiband generalization of the quasiclassical Usadel equations. The main difference between these two approaches…

    “My goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all.” -Stephen Hawkings. This is exactly what Stephen Hawking is working to do by piecing together parts of the universe. Stephen Hawking was born on January 8, 1942, in Oxford, England. When Hawking was young, he showed a strong passion for science and the sky. When he was 21, he was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS. ALS is a very progressive disease…

    of co-presence in the light of physics, mathematics, and cosmology, he appeals to the examples of non-Hausdorff manifolds and Cantor’s threefold concept of the finite, the transfinite, and the infinite in mathematics and to the non-locality of quantum mechanics. Thereby, he renders co-presence as an infinite fractal-like character. To be more specific, gleaning from Pannenberg the idea of the dialectical mutual indwelling of the finite and the infinite, based on Hegel’s concept of…

    Henrietta Leavitt and Stephen Hawking are similar in a variety of different ways. Both Hawking and Leavitt have contributed a great deal to science. Stephen Hawking had discovered that radiation can escape black holes, and Leavitt had discovered the period-luminosity relationship as well as being fundamental in defining the size of the universe. According to the article on Henrietta Leavitt, “Before Leavitt established the period-luminosity relationship, astronomers could determine cosmic…

    Athletes are constantly being asked which they prefer: artificial turf or natural grass. They want the ideal playing surface to compete on, which was the logic behind inventing artificial grass, but what people don’t know are the disadvantages that are associated with artificial grass. After researching the downsides to turf, I read about a study that states that seventy-one percent of injuries on turf are traumatic injuries and the other 29% are for overuse injuries. This includes both…

    Albert Einstein said, “No object can travel faster than the speed of light.” However, will the temperature change the brightness of light? The researcher will perform the test three different times. Each test will take one glow stick from the freezer, one from the refrigerator, one in boiling water, and one from the counter and break the glow stick to make it glow. The researcher will then time the length of time it takes for the glow stick to turn off. At the conclusion of the experiment, the…

    The two light waves from the two slits are going to interfere with one another. So the question becomes, why are there different light and dark bands? To make sense of this, Young incorporated Christiaan Huygens’ theory of wave interference and Augustin Fresnel’s adaptation of Huygens’ Principle, referred to as Huygens-Fresnel Principle (Homer 137). The light from the bottom slit has to travel a little farther than the top slit to get to the same point. If that difference…
