Explore how quadratic drag influences the motion of objects moving in a straight line. In this video, we break down the physics behind resistive forces that increase with the square of velocity, ...

Researchers from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) and the University of Oklahoma have pinpointed a one-dimensional system where such particles can exist and have examined their ...

An international team of researchers, including scientists from Science Tokyo, has developed a five-dimensional Langevin model that accurately reproduces the complex fission fragment distributions and ...

The idea that a hidden fourth dimension could be woven into everyday reality is no longer just a science‑fiction trope. Leading theorists now argue that extra dimensions are not only compatible with ...

The 2026 edition of the traditional Boltzmann Lecture will be held on Monday, February 23rd, at 14:00, in Room 128–129. The lecture is organized by the Statistical Physics group at SISSA, close to ...

We live in a three-dimensional world. We perceive our world in three dimensions, we move around in three dimensions and, in a certain way, our imagination "thinks" in three dimensions. As such, it is ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works extremely well in its own domain: Quantum theory explains how atoms and ...

The irregular, swirling motion of fluids we call turbulence can be found everywhere, from stirring in a teacup to currents in the planetary ...
