Abstract: This study examines how removing surface materials affects the rotational dynamics of an asteroid to design efficient asteroid mining plans. The simulations solve Euler’s equations and track ...

Physicists have transformed a decades-old technique for simplifying quantum equations into a reusable, user-friendly "conversion table" that works on a laptop and returns results within hours. When ...

While atmospheric turbulence is a familiar culprit of rough flights, the chaotic movement of turbulent flows remains an unsolved problem in physics. To gain insight into the system, a team of ...

Daniel Whiteson and Andy Warner’s upcoming book is a philosophical exploration of the humanity behind our desire to find aliens. Reading time 6 minutes At Gizmodo, we love a good story about ...

Researchers from The University of New Mexico and Los Alamos National Laboratory have developed an AI framework that tackles one of physics’ most complex computational challenges. Credit: Stock An AI ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Imagine zooming into matter at the quantum scale, where tiny particles can interact in more than a trillion configurations at once. If that sounds complicated, it is: Physicists often ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) Progress in the foundations of physics is moving slowly. And yet it moves. Today I look at the five biggest problems in physics, what their status is, and how long it will ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) In today’s video, I have a brief rundown of my 10 favorite physics paradoxes and big problems. If you have trouble sleeping at night, this will give you something to think ...

Using an advanced Monte Carlo method, Caltech researchers found a way to tame the infinite complexity of Feynman diagrams and solve the long-standing polaron problem, unlocking deeper understanding of ...

Abstract: This study investigates the effects of off-center rotational acceleration and rotational radius on cybersickness and spatial presence in virtual reality (VR) environments through a set of ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

MINNEAPOLIS — Pitching with diminished velocity Thursday for a third straight start, Minnesota Twins right-hander Bailey Ober failed to make it out of the fifth inning and surrendered seven runs — ...
