Research on the doorway effect involves having people navigate virtual environments while picking up and putting down various objects. During these experiments, participants were given the names of these objects either (1) as they moved across a large room or (2) when they entered a new room (a spatial change).
The arbitrary assumptions made by Fresnel to arrive at the Huygens–Fresnel equation emerge automatically from the mathematics in this derivation. [13] A simple example of the operation of the principle can be seen when an open doorway connects two rooms and a sound is produced in a remote corner of one of them.

Direct (A) and inverse (B) Moses effects. In physics, the Moses effect is a phenomenon of deformation of the surface of a diamagnetic liquid by a magnetic field. [1] [2] The effect was named after the biblical figure Moses, inspired by the mythological crossing of the Red Sea in the Old Testament.
The anthropic principle, also known as the observation selection effect, is the proposition that the range of possible observations that could be made about the universe is limited by the fact that observations are only possible in the type of universe that is capable of developing intelligent life. Proponents of the anthropic principle argue ...
The book compiles the essential works from the scientists that changed the face of physics, including works by Niels Bohr, Max Planck, Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schrodinger, J. Robert Oppenheimer, Richard Feynman, and Max Born. [1]
Modern analytic celestial mechanics started with Isaac Newton's Principia.The name celestial mechanics is more recent than that. Newton wrote that the field should be called "rational mechanics".
An electromagnetic cavity is a cavity that acts as a container for electromagnetic fields such as photons, in effect containing their wave function inside. The size of the cavity determines the maximum photon wavelength that can be trapped. Additionally, it produces quantized energy levels for trapped charged particles like electrons and protons.
