  2. A Dynamical Theory of the Electromagnetic Field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Dynamical_Theory_of_the...

    "A Dynamical Theory of the Electromagnetic Field" is a paper by James Clerk Maxwell on electromagnetism, published in 1865. [1] Physicist Freeman Dyson called the publishing of the paper the "most important event of the nineteenth century in the history of the physical sciences."

  3. Three-body problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-body_problem

    The circular restricted three-body problem [clarification needed] is a valid approximation of elliptical orbits found in the Solar System, [citation needed] and this can be visualized as a combination of the potentials due to the gravity of the two primary bodies along with the centrifugal effect from their rotation (Coriolis effects are ...

  4. Quantum electrodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_electrodynamics

    In particle physics, quantum electrodynamics (QED) is the relativistic quantum field theory of electrodynamics. [1] [2] [3] In essence, it describes how light and matter interact and is the first theory where full agreement between quantum mechanics and special relativity is achieved. [2]

  5. Modified Newtonian dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified_Newtonian_dynamics

    Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) is a theory that proposes a modification of Newton's second law to account for observed properties of galaxies.Its primary motivation is to explain galaxy rotation curves without invoking dark matter, and is one of the most well-known theories of this class.

  6. Objective-collapse theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objective-collapse_theory

    Philip Pearle's 1976 paper pioneered the quantum nonlinear stochastic equations to model the collapse of the wave function in a dynamical way; [4]: 477 [5] [6] [7] this formalism was later used for the CSL model. However, these models lacked the character of “universality” of the dynamics, i.e. its applicability to an arbitrary physical ...

  7. Quantum dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_dynamics

    In physics, quantum dynamics is the quantum version of classical dynamics. Quantum dynamics deals with the motions, and energy and momentum exchanges of systems whose behavior is governed by the laws of quantum mechanics. [1] [2] Quantum dynamics is relevant for burgeoning fields, such as quantum computing and atomic optics.
