Physics

View our offer Physics

Physics is the science that explores the foundations of the natural world. It investigates the fundamental forces, the interactions between matter and energy, and the laws that govern our universe. Physicists study phenomena at the microscopic level, such as particle physics, and at the macroscopic level, such as the motion of planets. Through experiments, mathematical models, and theoretical insights, physicists strive to understand and explain the complexity of the universe. Physics forms the basis for technological advancements and provides us with insights into the workings of the world around us.

    De man uit de toekomst

    Het visionaire leven van John von Neumann

    Ondanks zijn bijdragen aan de theorie van wiskunde, economie, logica, complexiteit en quantumfysica, werd John von Neumann nooit zo’n bekendheid als Einstein. Zijn collega’s geloofden dat hij de snelste hersenen ter wereld had, hij is een van de invloedrijkste wetenschappers die ooit heeft geleefd; Kernwapens, speltheorie, computers, de smartphone in je zak, ze dragen allemaal de vingerafdrukken van deze opmerkelijke man. Ananyo Bhattacharya laat zien hoe de combinatie van genialiteit en unieke historische omstandigheden een enkele man in staat stelde om door talrijke wetenschapsgebieden te razen en revoluties te ontketenen waar hij ook ging.

    Information Theory for Complex Systems

    An Information Perspective on Complexity in Dynamical Systems and Statistical Mechanics

    Kristian Lindgren is a Professor Emeritus in Complex Systems at Chalmers University of Technology. Originating from a background in physics, he has applied this foundational knowledge to the interdisciplinary study of complex systems across a variety of disciplines. His key research areas include information theory and statistical mechanics, as well as the application of information theory to complex and self-organizing systems. Lindgren has also delved into game theory as it applies to evolutionary systems and has utilized agent-based modelling to understand economic systems. He was one of the founders of the International Masters Programme in Complex Adaptive Systems at Chalmers in 2000 and has also served as the Director for the Graduate School (Ph.D.) in Complex Systems.
