It began partly as an empirical law, and partly as something abstractly constructed on the basis of the idea of molecules, that nobody at the time knew for sure existed. The theory of heat will hereafter form one of the most important branches of general physics. physics) in Glasgow—began to be curious about.

One might have thought it was already exciting enough for our Physics Project to be showing a path to a fundamental theory of physics and a fundamental description of how our physical universe works. Part of what this achieves is to generalize beyond traditional mathematics the kind of constructs that can appear in models.

Wearable sensors can be tailored to monitor a range of physical (e.g., They developed a ‘peeling technique’, whereby the electronic components are constructed on conventional fabrication substrates that can withstand high temperatures and corrosive chemicals but can then be thinly peeled off and transferred elsewhere.

Line, Surface and Contour Integration “Find the integral of the function ” is a typical core thing one wants to do in calculus. But particularly in applications of calculus, it’s common to want to ask slightly more elaborate questions, like “What’s the integral of over the region ?”, or “What’s the integral of along the line ?”

Understanding the nucleus and its substructure is at the heart of nuclear physics. Full of exotic-sounding particles, and existing on a scale billions of times smaller than the width of a human hair, the world of nuclear physics can be daunting and bewildering. This is where nuclear physics starts to get more complex.

The Second Law of thermodynamics is considered one of the great general principles of physical science. Sometimes textbooks will gloss over everything; sometimes they’ll give some kind of “common-sense-but-outside-of-physics argument”. But our Physics Project has changed that picture. Why does the Second Law work?

Multicomputation is one of the core ideas of the Wolfram Physics Project —and in particular is at the heart of our emerging understanding of quantum mechanics. But with the multicomputational paradigm there are now some more general concepts that can be applied to these constructs. Humanizing Multicomputational Processes. &#10005.

Beginning about five years ago—particularly energized by our Physics Project —I started looking at harvesting seeds I’d sown in A New Kind of Science and before. Our modern Wolfram Language tools—as well as ideas from our Physics Project—provided some new directions to explore. But I still thought I pretty much knew what we’d find.

And for example the concept of “temperature” is there because exponential distributions familiar from statistical physics happen to be being used, but there’s no “physical” connection—at least so far as we know.) In this particular case, we can use known laws of physics to work it out.

Indeed, so confident was he of his programming prowess that he became convinced that he should in effect be able to write a program for the universe—and make all of physics into a programming problem. It didn’t help that his knowledge of physics was at best spotty (and, for example, I don’t think he ever really learned calculus).

And there was something else: the computer system I’d built was a language that I’d realized (in a nod to my experience with reductionist physical science) would be the most powerful if it could be based on principles and primitives that were as minimal as possible. Mathematical physics. It had worked out very well for the language.

we have a new symbolic construct, Threaded , that effectively allows you to easily generalize listability. Why is such a construct needed? Now “characters” could be 16-bit constructs, with nearly 65536 possible “glyphs” allocated across different languages and uses (including some mathematical symbols that we introduced).

When you do operations on Around numbers the “errors” are combined using a certain calculus of errors that’s effectively based on Gaussian distributions—and the results you get are always in some sense statistical. Also in the area of calculus we’ve added various conveniences to the handling of differential equations.
