The Concept of the Ruliad

Stephen Wolfram

It’s yet another surprising construct that’s arisen from our Physics Project. And it’s one that I think has extremely deep implications—both in science and beyond. In the language of our Physics Project, it’s the ultimate limit of all rulial multiway systems. Experiencing the Ruliad.

Indoor STEM Activities for Kids

STEM Sport

As winter begins, keeping kids both physically and mentally active becomes a challenging task for parents and educators. Below are five engineering activities that use everyday items: Popsicle Stick Bridges: Use popsicle sticks and glue to construct bridges. This experiment teaches about impact forces and materials science.

Behind the screens: the crystals that flow like rain down a windowpane

Futurum

AKHSHAY’S PHYSICAL EXPERIMENTS. This not only helps scientists understand what is going on behind the scenes, and why, but also helps to enable the physics to be applied in technology in the future. He starts by considering some basic principles of physics – that the momentum and energy of a system are always conserved.

A 50-Year Quest: My Personal Journey with the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Stephen Wolfram

Building on an earlier interest in space and spacecraft , I’d gotten very interested in physics, and was trying to read everything I could about it. There were several shelves of physics books at the local bookstore. The other books I’d read had all basically said “physics works like this”. The lambda hyperon.

How Did We Get Here? The Tangled History of the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Stephen Wolfram

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. But, first and foremost, the story of the Second Law is the story of a great intellectual achievement of the mid-19th century.

On the frontline of the biomedical revolution

Futurum

I think I’ve achieved a lot. Dr Jiajia Zhou, Associate Professor at UTS’s School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences, is leading the research and development of a range of innovative detection methods. Probes constructed from nanoparticles can enter cells themselves, attaching to proteins or other substances within the cell.
