Computational Foundations for the Second Law of Thermodynamics (forthcoming) 2. But by the end of the 1800s, with the existence of molecules increasingly firmly established, the Second Law began to often be treated as an almost-mathematically-proven necessary law of physics. This is part 3 in a 3-part series about the Second Law: 1.

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.

And there was one way in which Ed and I were very much aligned: both of our lives were deeply influenced by computers and computing. Ed had started with computers in 1956—as part of one of the very first cohorts of programmers. My own career had begun in the 1970s with traditional fundamental physics.

But in a quirk of history that I now realize had tremendous significance, I had just spent a couple of years creating a big computer system that was ultimately a direct forerunner of our modern Wolfram Language. So for me it was obvious: if I couldn’t figure out things myself with math, I should use a computer. Mathematical physics.

Introducing Astro Computation. Astronomy has been a driving force for computation for more than 2000 years (from the Antikythera device on)… and in Version 13.2 But what’s new now is astronomical computation fully integrated into the system.

Computational Foundations for the Second Law of Thermodynamics 2. 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”. How Did We Get Here?

All the functions in Abramowitz & Stegun are now fully computable in the Wolfram Language. 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. And in Version 13.0
