Arbitrariness in physics

R. Bruce Lindsay
OpenURL
Show Topic
To what extent is physics a body of external truth independent of the student, and to what extent is it a set of man‐made constructs that describe the world as we find it?

Muonium

Vernon W. Hughes
OpenURL
Show Topic
With the production and decay of muonium, one can measure hyperfine structure intervals, study weak interactions and observe a rich hydrogen‐like chemistry.

The visionary ideas of Bernhard Riemann

Martin P. Jaggi
OpenURL
Show Topic
Although the life of this scientist was lamentably short, his insights into physics and mathematics are of lasting value. By applying a kind of religious devotion to his scientific work, Riemann left a legacy of concepts.

Plasma confinement in the toroidal multipole

Tihiro Ohkawa and Norman Rostoker
OpenURL
Show Topic
Controlled thermonuclear fusion as a source of power awaits the development of a suitable method of plasma containment. The toroidal multipole system may offer fundamental advantages that are explored in these experiments.
