Mind = blown.

Gravity is supposed to be the most familiar force in nature, yet at the deepest level it remains the least understood. A bold ...

For more than a century, modern physics has rested on two towering frameworks that do not quite agree with each other.

In a recent paper, SFI Professor David Wolpert, SFI Fractal Faculty member Carlo Rovelli, and physicist Jordan Scharnhorst examine a longstanding, paradoxical thought experiment in statistical physics ...

Can quantum systems become more disordered, as thermodynamics would predict? Yes, they can - if a proper definition of "entropy" is used. It is one of the most important laws of nature that we know: ...

Quantum state diffusion framework makes it possible to characterize quantum measurement in terms of entropy production ...

We experience the flow of time because it’s a natural outcome of the basic laws of physics. But we may need to build a whole ...

I have before me a letter from Jeremy Rifkin, author of Entropy: A New World View. His communication states that "entropy helps explain why we have runaway inflation, soaring unemployment, bloated ...

A University of Portsmouth physicist has explored whether a new law of physics could support the much-debated theory that we are simply characters in an advanced virtual world. The simulated universe ...

Georgetown University researchers have discovered a new class of strong magnets that do not rely on rare-earth or precious ...

Flux physics refers to continuous change in physical quantities, including energy transfer and dynamic equilibria. Flux is central to many areas of formal and Big-P physics, though intuitive ...
