In mathematics, the Navier–Stokes equations are a system of nonlinear partial differential equations for abstract vector fields of any size. In physics and engineering, they are a system of equations that model the motion of liquids or non-rarefied gases (in which the mean free path is short enough so that it can be thought of as a continuum mean instead of a collection of particles) using ...
Einstein's scientific publications are listed below in four tables: journal articles, book chapters, books and authorized translations. Each publication is indexed in the first column by its number in the Schilpp bibliography (Albert Einstein: Philosopher–Scientist, pp. 694–730) and by its article number in Einstein's Collected Papers.
Scientists. v. t. e. Albert Einstein. The Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen ( EPR) paradox is a thought experiment proposed by physicists Albert Einstein, Boris Podolsky and Nathan Rosen which argues that the description of physical reality provided by quantum mechanics is incomplete. [1] In a 1935 paper titled "Can Quantum-Mechanical Description of ...
The third of James Clerk Maxwell's papers concerned with electromagnetism. The concept of displacement current was introduced, so that it became possible to derive equations of electromagnetic wave. It was the first paper in which Maxwell's equations appeared. Hall, E.H. (1879). "On a New Action of the Magnet on Electric Currents".
Sokal affair. The Sokal affair, also called the Sokal hoax, [1] was a demonstrative scholarly hoax performed by Alan Sokal, a physics professor at New York University and University College London. In 1996, Sokal submitted an article to Social Text, an academic journal of cultural studies. The submission was an experiment to test the journal's ...
Einstein in 1904 or 1905, about the time he wrote the annus mirabilis papers. The annus mirabilis papers (from Latin annus mīrābilis, "miracle year") are the four [a] papers that Albert Einstein published in Annalen der Physik ( Annals of Physics ), a scientific journal, in 1905. These four papers were major contributions to the foundation of ...
Satyendra Nath Bose FRS, MP (/ ˈ b oʊ s /; 1 January 1894 – 4 February 1974) was an Indian theoretical physicist and mathematician.He is best known for his work on quantum mechanics in the early 1920s, in developing the foundation for Bose–Einstein statistics and the theory of the Bose–Einstein condensate.
The B2FH paper [1] was a landmark scientific paper on the origin of the chemical elements. The paper's title is Synthesis of the Elements in Stars, but it became known as B 2 FH from the initials of its authors: Margaret Burbidge, Geoffrey Burbidge, William A. Fowler, and Fred Hoyle. It was written from 1955 to 1956 at the University of ...
