Conceptual Physics
Even before history began, people must already have noticed certain facts about the sky. The sun and moon both rise in the east and set in the west. Another fact that can be settled to a fair degree of accuracy using the naked eye is that the apparent sizes of the sun and moon don’t change noticeably. (There is an optical illusion that makes the moon appear bigger when it’s near the horizo…

Symmetry in Quantum Optics Models
Prototypical quantum optics models, such as the Jaynes–Cummings, Rabi, Tavis–Cummings, and Dicke models, are commonly analyzed with diverse techniques, including analytical exact solutions, mean-field theory, exact diagonalization, and so on. Analysis of these systems strongly depends on their symmetries, ranging, e.g., from a U(1) group in the Jaynes–Cummings model to a Z2 symmetry in th…

X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy of Semiconductors
X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) is a powerful technique with which to probe the properties of matter, equally applicable to the solid, liquid and gas phases. Semiconductors are arguably our most technologically-relevant group of materials given they form the basis of the electronic and photonic devices that now so widely permeate almost every aspect of our society. The most effective utilis…

The Adventure of Physics Volume VI, The Strand Model : A Speculation on Unifi…
Look at what happens around us. A child that smiles, a nightingale that sings, aily that opens: all move. Every shadow, even an immobile one, is due to moving ight. Every mountain is kept in place by moving electrons. Every star owes its formation and its shine to motion of matter and radiation. Also the darkness of the night sky** is due to motion: it results from the expansion of space. Fina…

Nuclear physics for cultural heritage
The importance of cultural heritage for mankind was once well expressed by the Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser (1928-2000) when he said: “If we do not honour our past we lose our future. If we destroy our roots we cannot grow.” This statement refers almost directly to the two pillars of this review: Investigation and preservation of our cultural treasures. The various contrib…

Why More Is Different Philosophical Issues in Condensed Matter Physics and C…
The physics of condensed matter, in contrast to quantum physics or cosmology, is not traditionally associated with deep philosophical questions. However, as science - largely thanks to more powerful computers - becomes capable of analysing and modelling ever more complex many-body systems, basic questions of philosophical relevance arise. Questions about the emergence of structure, the nature o…
