While traditionally, researchers have relied on empirical and semi-empirical correlations for predicting behaviors in two-phase flows, theoretical/analytical modeling ...

Theory, computation, and simulation are foundational to modern energy research. Theoretical understanding reveals why materials and systems behave as they do, predicting performance before experiments ...

A researcher has introduced a new theory for superconductivity that can better explain the results of recent experiments with high-temperature superconductors. By focusing on the 'Berry connection,' ...

A group of researchers from Russia, Germany and Iran develops computational methods for creating a theory describing the behavior of cold atoms and ions in optical and electromagnetic traps. There is ...

Arguably, all of scientific inquiry in modern times begins with some sort of model. A model takes different parameters you are studying and uses them to make some claim about how our world works. It ...

Scientists seeking the secrets of the universe would like to make a model that shows how all of nature’s forces and particles fit together. It would be nice to do it with Legos. But perhaps a better ...

Scientists have introduced a new Big Bounce model that disputes the Big Bang, suggesting the universe may have cycled through earlier cosmic eras.

For decades, scientists have relied on a popular idea referred to as cosmic inflation to explain how the universe began and why it looks the way it does today. This theory suggests the universe ...
