we took a step back and we said, “Wow, when we were physicists, we took limits of everything. And so why don’t you just take a limit of a network?” Which sounded like a crazy thing to do, but we started developing that. And I say we went off into “Mathland” for like ten...
Announces five appointments to the University of Minnesota's institute for theoretical physics permanent faculty, all to be held by Soviet scientists. Profiles of Soviet appointees; Adjustment period for Soviet physicists; Reasons Soviets chose to come to Minneapolis; Choosing the scientists; Other ...
Theoretical physicists and experimentalists collaborate to identify dopants capable of enabling new designs of organic semiconducting materials A team of scientists at TU Dresden used the SuperMUC supercomputer at the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre to refine its method for studying organic semiconductors. Specif...
Until that time, physicists had believed that a photon could interact with an atom only in two ways: The photon could be absorbed and raise the atom to a higher energy level, or the photon could be emitted by the atom when it dropped into a lower energy level [5]. Figure 2 shows ...

According to a theoretical model developed by LMU physicists, in cell protrusions, cargo-transporting motor proteins often get in each other's way. The upshot is that freely diffusing proteins reach the leading edge faster. Summertime, school's out – and holidaymakers pile into their cars and ...
Modern particle accelerators measure up to several kilometres in size and cost billions of euros. But thanks to a new method they could shrink to less than 10 metres and cost 10 times less in future. To this end, physicists at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics in Garching accelerate...
Particle physicists working at the LHC have calculated that the Higgs field is likely to have started out in a high-energy, ‘metastable’ state rather than in a stable, low-energy configuration3. Steinhardt likens the odds of the Higgs field initially being perched in the precarious metastable...
algorithms to prevent web spam and all kinds of things like that. And then, we took a step back and we said, “Wow, when we were physicists, we took limits of everything. And so why don’t you just take a limit of a network?” Which sounded like a crazy thing to do, ...
