 classical-electrodynamics× 417 classical-field-theory× 71 classical-mechanics× 2637 Classical mechanics refers to the classical (i.e., non-relativistic, non-quantum) study of physics. Three major formulations of classical mechanics are newtonian mechanics, lagrangian mechanics, and … classical-physics clifford-algebra× 24 climate-control× 2 climate-science× 55 clock× 23 closed-timelike-curve× 9 cmb× 192 the electromagnetic radiation in the microwave band which can be observed throughout the whole universe, not connected to any astronomical object. Its spectrum… coherence× 82 Coherence describes properties of correlations among physical quantities of waves, with special emphasis on constant phase differences and frequencies in common. Such collective linkages enable stat… cold-atoms× 41 cold-fusion× 19 collision× 542 Interaction between two or more bodies that results in physical contact and an exchange of momentum between the bodies involved. color color-charge× 39 called "color". colors combustion× 35 comets× 26 commutator× 282 A mathematical construct quantifying the difference in effect of applying two operators in two alternate successions. It is the defining product of a Lie algebra, the efficient underlying description … compactification× 95 complex-numbers× 200 Numbers of the form $\{z= x+ i\,y:\;x,\, y\in\mathbb{R}\}$ where $i^2 = -1$. Useful especially as quantum mechanics, where system states take complex vector values. complex-systems× 70 computation× 45 just because the question requires a computation! computational-physics× 387 Subdiscipline of theoretical physics which consists in the study of physics problems using numerical algorithms. PLEASE NOTE that questions about computational methods and/or programming are OFF-TOPIC… computations computer× 35 condensation× 37 condensed-matter× 1485 The study of physical properties condensed phases of matter, including solids and liquids. conductors× 179 confinement× 57 the concept that particles that possess color charges (quarks and glouns) can not be found freely, and only color-free combinations can be observed. conformal-field-theory× 440 a quantum field theory that is invariant under conformal transformations. In 2D, the infinite-dimensional algebra of local conformal transformations normally permits … conservation-laws× 848 The statement that a property of a system does not change if the system is isolated. conservative-field× 21 constrained-dynamics× 145 continuum-mechanics× 194 a branch of mechanics that deals with the analysis of the kinematics and the mechanical behavior of materials modeled as a continuous mass rather than as discrete particles.
