What is quantum fluctuation? What is parity in nuclear physics? What does quantum tunneling have to do with radioactive decay? What is resonance in particle physics? What is resonance in nuclear physics? What are leptons made of? What is the antiparticle of an electron?
However, ingredient (iv) was nearly impossible to estimate: indeed, as argued in that post, there is no reason to suspect that is much larger than the tiny probability (2), and in fact it could well be smaller (since would likely be in the interest of corrupt lottery officials to not ...
Entropy in physics is associated with the randomness of a system. It is also used in other fields of study and is used to define the multiplicity of a system or, in the case of information entropy, the average rate of information produced by a source. Entropy was first introduced in stati...
(For instance, it has a talk that I will be giving in an hour.) There is a form for adding further talks to the site; please feel free to contribute (or make other suggestions) in order to make the seminar list more useful. UPDATE: Here are some other lists of mathematical seminars...
The discovery of parity violation inbeta decaywas a profound discovery, leading to fundamental understandings of the universe and the properties ofneutrinos. Considerations of symmetry played a crucial role in the derivation of the general theory ofrelativityandquantum mechanics. Albert Einstein was one...
. We focus here on a surprising connection between the violation of a symmetry in particle physics –the $mathcal{CP}$ symmetry ( $cal{C}$ =charge conjugation, $cal{P}$ =parity)– and non-locality. This is achieved via Bell inequalities which discriminate between local realistic theories ...
The magnetic cycle is believed to be caused by a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) dynamo process in the solar interior, where the flows and the magnetic fields interact in the strongly turbulent convective zone. The intrinsic features of the solar interior, e.g., the stratification, the turbulence and...
For their part the grandees are optimistic. They believe the UK can revert to ‘its pre-existing parity’. But they reckon it’ll require £100bn a year of capital inflows to achieve this. And not just into the capital markets either, but also infrastructure such as water, transport and...
