How small can an electric motor be without resorting to manufacturing methods like lithography? In a recent video, [Chronova ...
It isn’t really a book, but Richard Feynman’s Appendix to the Challenger Disaster Report is still definitely something you should read. It’s not particularly long, but it’s educational ...
Physicists have built a new type of digital-analogue quantum simulator in Google’s laboratory, which can be used to study ...
That’s what Richard Feynman, a theoretical physicist, thought—at least in theory. According to many possibly apocryphal sources, the Nobel Prize-winner once said, “If you cannot explain ...
Richard Feynman was a man of many talents: accomplished author, lively lecturer, Nobel Prize-winning physicist, halfway decent bongo player. Among his arsenal of skills was an unwavering tendency to ...
Mathematicians just solved Feynman's Sprinkler Problem, a longstanding physics puzzle. In the 1880s, scientist Ernst Mach first presented this problem to Nobel laureate Richard Feynman.
Richard Feynman (1918-88) was one of the most remarkable and gifted theoretical physicists of any generation. He was also known as the 'Great Explainer' because of his passion for helping non ...
Feynman's lecture was, in truth, a very minor incident in his brilliant career, but if we were to look for the source of its later power, the starting point must be the figure of Feynman himself.
Google’s latest quantum chip, Willow, recently demonstrated remarkable progress in this area. The more qubits Google used in ...
There is always the choice between the market principle and the hegemonic principle. There is no third way or middle ground between the two, often presented as ...
