A researcher has created the first experimental observation of molecular chaos, providing evidence that a widely accepted, yet unproven, assumption is indeed accurate. Molecular chaos is an assumption ...

Mathematicians have found solutions to a 140-year-old, 7-dimensional equation that were not known to exist for more than a century despite its widespread use in modeling the behavior of gases.

A research team has developed a novel direct sampling method based on deep generative models. Their method enables efficient sampling of the Boltzmann distribution across a continuous temperature ...

Physicists in the US have developed a technique that may help to make a more accurate measurement of the Boltzmann constant, a fundamental value that relates the kinetic energy of a group of particles ...

The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has been widely studied for decades. Its popularity in the fluid mechanics community originates from its various advantages such as kinetic nature, simplicity and ...

Quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is a state of matter existing at extremely temperatures and densities, such as those that occur in collisions of hadrons (protons, neutrons and mesons). Under so-called ...
