  2. Applications of quantum mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applications_of_quantum...

    Quantum physics is a branch of modern physics in which energy and matter are described at their most fundamental level, that of energy quanta, elementary particles, and quantum fields. Quantum physics encompasses any discipline concerned with systems that exhibit notable quantum-mechanical effects, where waves have properties of particles, and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_electrical_phenomena

    Some examples are: Atmospheric electricity; Biefeld–Brown effect — Thought by the person who coined the name, Thomas Townsend Brown, to be an anti-gravity effect, it is generally attributed to electrohydrodynamics (EHD) or sometimes electro-fluid-dynamics, a counterpart to the well-known magneto-hydrodynamics.

  4. Theoretical physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theoretical_physics

    Theoretical physics is a branch of physics that employs mathematical models and abstractions of physical objects and systems to rationalize, explain, and predict natural phenomena. This is in contrast to experimental physics , which uses experimental tools to probe these phenomena.

  5. Three-body problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-body_problem

    The restricted three-body problem is easier to analyze theoretically than the full problem. It is of practical interest as well since it accurately describes many real-world problems, the most important example being the Earth–Moon–Sun system.

  7. String theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_theory

    In addition to being an idea of considerable theoretical interest, string theory provides a framework for constructing models of real-world physics that combine general relativity and particle physics. Phenomenology is the branch of theoretical physics in which physicists construct realistic models of nature from more abstract theoretical ideas.

  8. Branches of physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branches_of_physics

    astrophysics, the physics in the universe, including the properties and interactions of celestial bodies in astronomy; atmospheric physics is the application of physics to the study of the atmosphere; space physics is the study of plasmas as they occur naturally in the Earth's upper atmosphere (aeronomy) and within the Solar System

  9. Electricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity

    In the 19th and early 20th centuries, electricity was not part of the everyday life of many people, even in the industrialised Western world. The popular culture of the time accordingly often depicted it as a mysterious, quasi-magical force that can slay the living, revive the dead or otherwise bend the laws of nature.
