Recent theoretical advances have underscored the significance of momentum space geometry in the realm of relativistic physics. Traditional notions of flat momentum space are being re-evaluated in ...

If you studied advanced physics at high school, there's a good chance that you remember Snell's law, which states how a ray of light bends when it crosses a boundary between two media. According to ...

E = mc 2 is probably the most recognized physics equation among the general public, beating out Newton's Second Law of motion, F = ma. Despite that recognition by the outside world, E = mc 2 is hardly ...

Researchers have used a calcium ion to simulate a relativistic quantum particle, demonstrating a phenomenon that has not been directly observable so far: the Zitterbewegung. Researchers of the ...

Theoretical physicists at Goethe University, Frankfurt have discovered insights into the nature of relativistic particle jets generated by rotating black holes. The research team used advanced ...

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Osaka University researchers showed the relativistic contraction of an electric field produced by fast-moving charged particles, as predicted by Einstein’s theory, which can help ...

Let's go back to Einstein. He said that energy was related directly to mass, E = mc 2. So if mass is zero, energy is zero. But clearly this is not true for photons, because light has energy. A photon ...
