The mathematical physics underpinning electromagnetic fields and wave equations provides a rigorous framework for understanding the behaviour of electric and magnetic phenomena in both classical and ...
On the big screen, in video games and in our imaginations, lightsabers flare and catch when they clash together. In reality, as in a laser light show, the beams of light go through each other, ...
Muons are unstable subatomic particles that spontaneously and rapidly transform into other particles via a process known as ...
Peter Millington is a Senior Research Fellow in the Particle Theory Group at the University of Manchester, UK, where he holds a UK Research and Innovation Future Leaders Fellowship and a Royal Society ...
In the 1940s, trailblazing physicists stumbled upon the next layer of reality. Particles were out, and fields — expansive, undulating entities that fill space like an ocean — were in. One ripple in a ...
