Introduction Bernhard Riemann was one of the top mathematicians of the eighteen hundreds. He is most well known for his his development of non-Euclidean geometry which is used today in physics and in the relativity theory. Summary of Riemann’s Life Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann was born on September 17th‚ 1826 in Breselenz‚ Germany to Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann and Charlotte Ebell. Sadly‚ his mother died before her children were grown. He had five siblings‚ four girls and one boy

Michal Pogorzelski 5/25/10 Parallel Universe Theories The Theory of Parallel Universes The multiverse is a theory in which our universe is not the only one‚ but states that many universes exist parallel to each other. These distinct universes within the multiverse theory are called parallel universes. A variety of different theories lend themselves to a multiverse viewpoint. Not all physicists really believe that these universes exist. Even fewer believe that it would ever be possible

Having completed my master degree (Physics) from National institute of technology‚ Trichy‚ India. I planned to do research in theoretical neuroscience. While I was doing my master’s I attended a workshop on nonlinear dynamics conducted by Indian academy of science. Where I was introduced to the applications of nonlinear dynamics with neuroscience. Such as ‘nonlinear synaptic current and neural coupling’‚ ‘bifurcation in population wide oscillations’ and ‘nonlinear dynamics of epilepsy’. Then I started

quantum mechanics is supernatural. Just because I can’t look inside a box does not make its contents supernatural. Conversely‚ if I suddenly acquired the Force of the Jedi and could predict the future‚ control minds‚ move objects and defy the laws of physics‚ all merely by an act of will‚ ordinary people everywhere would call this a supernatural power‚ yet it would be entirely testable. Scientists could

Hawking was being detained in a wheelchair for 40 years; the disease has made his body completely deformed. Even so‚ Hawking has not given up‚ he was tenaciously survived. Despite his debilitating illness‚ he has done ground-breaking work in physics and cosmology and his several books strive to make science accessible to everyone. He didn’t have the ability to change his adversity‚ but he kept a good attitude and he didn’t complain; he became success. For those things that you can’t change

Snowboarding Have you ever done something that changed your life? Well that’s what this story is about. Im going to tell you about the first time i went snowboarding and how it changed my life. “Where are we going?” i exclaimed. “You will see” my mom said with a huge smile on her face while glancing at my dad. We started to slow down in front of a big hotel with a mountain behind it. “Wooow are we staying there?” “we will see i need to check in first to see if we are staying in here or a cabin

Being a physicist and mathematician‚ Isaac Newton contributed to the scientific revolution with his theories of gravity and the laws of motion. Although his findings were controversial at the time they are now very important to modern science. Because of his discoveries science has changed dramatically. Isaac was born in Woolsthorpe‚ England on January 4‚ 1643. He was born into the scientific revolution so later on in his life he was one of the major contributors of this era. Through out his life

Atomism: Democritus and Epicurus Philosophy 116 October 17‚ 1996 In the Atomists‚ we see pluralism taken as far as it could possibly go. We see Democritus and Epicurus divide all the world‚ as well as the universe‚ into two categories; atoms and empty space. Everything else is merely thought to exist. The atoms are eternal‚ infinite in size and number and they are moving through the empty space. There is no motion without empty space. Both Democritus and Epicurus agreed

Stephen Hawking is a British theoretical physicist‚ he was born on January the 8th‚ 1942. Hawking has worked extensively on the subject of black holes‚ providing theories for their behavior‚ including the idea that they gave out radiation. Hawking suffers from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis‚ a type of motor neuron disease that has left him almost completely paralyzed. Hawking has made many important contributions to the fields of cosmology and the laws of gravity. He is also well known for his bestselling

Many people believe that Isaac Newton left the biggest impact on the history of science. He is most known for developing the laws of gravity and his work in formulating Calculus with Gottfried Leibniz . Calculus is taught in schools all around the world today so are his laws of gravity‚ These notions were published along with many others in Isaac’s “Principia Mathematica” publishing this book went on to prove Kepler’s heliocentric view of the solar system. Many systems of mathematics in the book
