Computational physics jobs involve calculations and formulas. It combines physics, computer science and applied mathematics in order to provide scientific solutions to realistic and often complex ...

Everyone already uses computers in physics. At the very least, students use handheld calculators (I doubt anyone is still using a slide-rule calculator). Also, it's becoming more common to have ...

Researchers have used an elegant method based on statistical mechanics -- called the vertex model -- to create more efficient algorithms to solve complex problems more quickly. The research could ...

In the early years of computational physics, starting during the Second World War, the discipline and its practitioners did not yet have a name. Iulia Georgescu tells the story of these forgotten ...

Deputy director of the School of Computing at the Australian National University, Amanda Barnard talks to Hamish Johnston about research at the interface of computational modelling, applied machine ...

A new computational method can identify how cause-and-effect relationships ebb and flow over time in dynamic real-life systems such as the brain. The method was reported today in a Reviewed Preprint ...

A research team from the Aerospace Information Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (AIRCAS) has developed a ...

Researchers from the University of Tartu Institute of Physics have developed a novel method for enhancing the quality of three-dimensional images by increasing the depth of focus in holograms fivefold ...

Under a recently completed IAEA project, experts have developed a benchmark database for computational methods and tools used for the utilization, operation and safety analysis of research reactors. A ...
