In condensed matter physics, analysis of symmetries is a fundamental theoretical technique used to classify phases of matter, constrain effective Hamiltonians, and predict emergent phenomena ...

The Institute of Physics and IOP Publishing (IOPP) are launching Progress In Physics 2024, a two-day hybrid workshop hosted at the Institute of Physics' office in London from 9-10 October 2024. The ...

Describing natural phenomena with geometric language is one of the most important achievements of modern physics. In the context of general relativity, Einstein treats spacetime as a dynamic geometric ...

At the smallest scales of matter, nature behaves in ways that feel almost counterintuitive. Individual particles follow simple rules, but when they interact together, entirely new behaviors can emerge ...
