Right now, molecules in the air are moving around you in chaotic and unpredictable ways. To make sense of such systems, physicists use a law known as the Boltzmann distribution, which, rather than ...

A century ago, Erwin Schrödinger came up with an equation that says how the quantum world behaves. Now scientists are asking ...

Quantum computing offers fundamentally new computational capabilities by exploiting the principles of quantum mechanics, such as superposition, interference, and entanglement. These properties enable ...

Abstract: A physics-based gate current model has been developed based on nonequilibrium electron energy distributions obtained from the spherical harmonic expansion of the Boltzmann equation. The ...

eGFR equations significantly overestimate renal function in patients with renal masses when compared with 24-hour CrCl-derived measured GFR, particularly near clinically meaningful thresholds. This ...

A new mathematical equation describes the distribution of different fragment sizes when an object breaks. Remarkably, the distribution is the same for everything from bubbles to spaghetti. When you ...

Zach began writing for CNET in November, 2021 after writing for a broadcast news station in his hometown, Cincinnati, for five years. You can usually find him reading and drinking coffee or watching a ...

The Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution describes the probability distribution of molecular speeds in a sample of an ideal gas. Introduced over 150 years ago, it is based on the work of Scottish physicist ...

In 1900, at the grand amphitheater of the Sorbonne in Paris, David Hilbert stood before a crowd of mathematicians and delivered a speech that would echo through the next century. He outlined 10 — and ...

When the greatest mathematician alive unveils a vision for the next century of research, the math world takes note. That’s exactly what happened in 1900 at the International Congress of Mathematicians ...

Researchers found that the median percent predicted FEV 1 in Black children decreased by at least 11.9 pp compared with the race-specific equation. HealthDay News — Using a race-neutral equation ...

A new calculation of Green’s function for Poisson’s equation in plane polar coordinates is presented. The method consists in first calculating the solution to the simpler problem, but with the same ...
