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 ...

John Hopfield, one of this year’s winners of the Nobel Prize in Physics, is a true polymath. His career started with probing the physics of solid states during the field’s heyday in the 1950s before ...

The 3-body problem looks simple: three objects, one gravitational system. But it reveals something shocking — even basic gravity can become unpredictable, chaotic, and impossible to solve perfectly.

Physicists explore science and how things work. Our students learn the physical concepts of the laws of nature and how these concepts answer questions and solve real problems. Earning a bachelor’s ...
