23 de may. de 2024 · Faced with these infinities, John Archibald Wheeler and Heisenberg proposed, in 1937 and 1943 respectively, to supplant the problematic QFT with the so-called S-matrix theory.
Hace 3 días · The notion of spontaneous fission had been raised by Niels Bohr and John Archibald Wheeler in their 1939 treatment of the mechanism of nuclear fission. The first attempt to discover spontaneous fission in uranium was made by Willard Libby, but he failed to detect it.
Hace 3 días · Paraphrasing the relativist John Archibald Wheeler, spacetime tells matter how to move; matter tells spacetime how to curve. [48] While general relativity replaces the scalar gravitational potential of classical physics by a symmetric rank -two tensor , the latter reduces to the former in certain limiting cases .
9 de may. de 2024 · At Princeton, with his adviser, John Archibald Wheeler, he developed an approach to quantum mechanics governed by the principle of least action. This approach replaced the wave-oriented electromagnetic picture developed by James Clerk Maxwell with one based entirely on particle interactions mapped in space and time.
11 de may. de 2024 · Everett’s doctoral thesis proposed a radical solution to the measurement problem, positing the existence of multiple branching universes to account for quantum phenomena. We trace the evolution of the MWI, examining its refinement and elaboration by subsequent physicists such as John Wheeler.
Hace 2 días · With C.W. Misner and John Archibald Wheeler, Thorne wrote Gravitation (1973), which became the standard graduate school text on general relativity. He also wrote a popular book about the subject, Black Holes and Time Warps: Einstein’s Outrageous Legacy (1994).
7 de may. de 2024 · John Archibald Wheeler gave the most impressive description of the facts explained above: Space-time tells matter how to move; matter tells space-time how to curve. 6.3 Including the Cosmological Constant
