  2. Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen...

    After the publication of Bell's paper, a variety of experiments to test Bell's inequalities were carried out, notably by the group of Alain Aspect in the 1980s; [26] all experiments conducted to date have found behavior in line with the predictions of quantum mechanics. The present view of the situation is that quantum mechanics flatly ...

  3. AP Physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Physics

    AP Physics C: Mechanics and AP Physics 1 are both introductory college-level courses in mechanics, with the former recognized by more universities. [1] The AP Physics C: Mechanics exam includes a combination of conceptual questions, algebra-based questions, and calculus-based questions, while the AP Physics 1 exam includes only conceptual and algebra-based questions.

  4. AP Physics 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Physics_1

    The heavily computational AP Physics B course served as the College Board's algebra-based offering for four decades. As part of the College Board's redesign of science courses, AP Physics B was discontinued; therefore, AP Physics 1 and 2 were created with guidance from the National Research Council and the National Science Foundation. [2]

  5. Phenomenology (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenomenology_(physics)

    In physics, phenomenology is the application of theoretical physics to experimental data by making quantitative predictions based upon known theories. It is related to the philosophical notion of the same name in that these predictions describe anticipated behaviors for the phenomena in reality.

  6. Interpretations of quantum mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpretations_of_quantum...

    The definition of quantum theorists' terms, such as wave function and matrix mechanics, progressed through many stages.For instance, Erwin Schrödinger originally viewed the electron's wave function as its charge density smeared across space, but Max Born reinterpreted the absolute square value of the wave function as the electron's probability density distributed across space; [3]: 24–33 ...

  7. Applied physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applied_physics

    Applied physics is the application of physics to solve scientific or engineering problems. It is usually considered a bridge or a connection between physics and engineering . "Applied" is distinguished from "pure" by a subtle combination of factors, such as the motivation and attitude of researchers and the nature of the relationship to the ...

  8. Theory of everything - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_everything

    Research into string theory has been encouraged by a variety of theoretical and experimental factors. On the experimental side, the particle content of the standard model supplemented with neutrino masses fits into a spinor representation of SO(10) , a subgroup of E8 that routinely emerges in string theory, such as in heterotic string theory ...

  9. Bell test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_test

    The Bell test has its origins in the debate between Einstein and other pioneers of quantum physics, principally Niels Bohr. One feature of the theory of quantum mechanics under debate was the meaning of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. This principle states that if some information is known about a given particle, there is some other ...
