Like Newton, Maxwell also began his scientific career fascinated by color and light. Newton had explored the spectrum of visible colors into which white light splits wh

th a current of known magnitude. This force is proportional to the product of the currents. Let's call the constant of proportionality in this case B. Maxwell showed that the speed of an electromagnetic disturbance that emanates from an oscillating charge can be rendered precisely in terms of the measured

quantum mechanics seems to offer hope of a world where any dream, no matter how outlandish, is realizable. Other familiar names, Bohr, Schrodinger, Dirac, and later Feynman and Dyson, each made great leaps into the unknown. But they weren't alone. Physics is a collaborative discipline. Too often scie

Heisenberg, the next step in unveiling the quantum craziness of reality was taken by an unlikely explorer, Paul Adrien Maurice Dirac. In one sense, Dirac was the perfect man for the job.
