(via PBS Space Time) The Fine Structure Constant is one the strangest numbers in all of physics. It’s the job of physicists to worry about numbers, but there’s one number that physicists have stressed ...

If you ask your team to work on an unsolved, unstructured problem—to risk being no cause and risk seeing no effect—maybe the emails will pile up. But so will the lightbulbs. The Fast Company Executive ...

As government and industry, from tech giants to utilities, commit to big nuclear power plants, there is still no clear ...

Scientists have made a leap forward in understanding the pattern and structure of turbulence — a natural phenomenon observed in fluids such as moving water, ocean currents, chemical reactions, blood ...

With regard to fusion, we really have no choice other than to build the machine and run the experiments directly. Also, turbulent instabilities are only a fraction of the physics necessary to model a ...
