Professors from the math and physics departments speculated in a panel Sept. 15 that advancements in artificial intelligence will enable mathematicians to focus on insightful results and enhance the ...

As a physics major, it feels like I spend the majority of my waking life solving problems. I’ve calculated the amount of water you get from mixing different ratios of steam and ice, the path of ...

Solving life's great mysteries often requires detective work, using observed outcomes to determine their cause. For instance, nuclear physicists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas Jefferson ...

What do you all do for your physics studies?Some of you may be doing your best just to memorize the formulas learned in class ...

Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

The merging of real and virtual worlds into a so-called mixed-reality environment can help students successfully complete problem-solving tasks. Mixed reality—a hybrid of augmented and virtual reality ...

Using artificial intelligence, physicists have compressed a daunting quantum problem that until now required 100,000 equations into a bite-size task of as few as four equations — all without ...

Throughout the semester, our department invites the graduate students to participate in a problem solving competition. One problem will be offered per round of competition, and we will have a few ...

As large language models improve, the real challenge is not how to shield education from AI, but how to embrace AI as a cornerstone of future physics learning and teaching. If AI openly competed in a ...
