Rebecca Newberger Goldstein argues that a good life is one that seeks to create order out of a natural state of chaos.

Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...

High energy proton collisions can be pictured as a roiling sea of quarks and gluons, including short lived virtual particles. At first glance, this ...

Inside high-energy proton collisions, quarks and gluons briefly form a dense, boiling state before cooling into ordinary ...

A team of physicists has created a cloud of ultracold atoms that stubbornly resists the most basic rule of everyday experience: when you pump energy into something, it heats up. Instead, this quantum ...

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to merge Einstein’s smooth space-time with the jittery world of quantum mechanics. A new wave of ...

Key attitudes and strategic frameworks for intelligent and successful investors Marguerita is a Certified Financial Planner (CFP), Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor (CRPC), Retirement Income ...

Abstract: We develop a general method for computing logarithmic and log-gamma expectations of distributions. As a result, we derive series expansions and integral representations of the entropy for ...

Abstract: Entropy is a powerful tool for nonlinear analysis of time series. We have recently introduced dispersion entropy (DispEn), which has widely drawn attention from researchers in a variety of ...
