Why does math describe physics so well?
A different response, advocated by physicist Max Tegmark, is that physics is so successfully described by mathematics because the physical world is completely mathematical, isomorphic to a mathematical structure, and that we are simply uncovering this bit by bit.
Can a mathematician understand physics?
Yes, if you choose your sub-specialty in mathematics wisely, you will be able to interact with physicists as much as you want and decide the amount you want to be linked between the two fields. Mathematics and physics are not in a binary from one another, but instead there is a spectrum amongst the fields.
What are the best scientific journals in the world?
Title Type SJR H index 1 Reviews of Modern Physics journal 24.877 Q1 363 2 Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophys book series 15.623 Q1 204 3 Nature Materials journal 14.344 Q1 483 4 Nature Nanotechnology journal 14.308 Q1 353
What is the main goal of postgraduate physics?
Physics is one of the most fundamental scientific disciplines, and its main goal is to understand how the universe behaves. Physics is the natural science that studies matter, its motion and behaviour through space and time, and the related entities of energy and force.
Where are Elsevier’s mathematical sciences journals indexed?
All of Elsevier’s mathematical sciences journals are indexed in the four key mathematics abstracting and indexing services, namely: Scopus, Thomson ISI, Zentralblatt and AMS MathSciNet. We also provide full text to NUMDAM.
What does the Elsevier Mathematical Sciences sponsorship fund do?
Each year every field medallist presents their work at the symposium to an audience of undergrads, grad students and professors in a way that is understandable to a large math audience. The Elsevier Mathematical Sciences Sponsorship Fund supports events and activities that benefit individuals and groups within the mathematical sciences.
