Brumbaugh agrees with Whitehead that it is a mistake to treat students as stupid particles in an insulating vacuum.

As a foundational study, the research team investigated superionic ice treating the ions as if they were classical particles, but in future studies they plan to take quantum effects into account to further understand the properties of the materiaAs a foundational study, the research team investigated superionic ice treating the ions as if they were classical particles, but in future studies they plan to take quantum effects into account to further understand the properties of the materiaas if they were classical particles, but in future studies they plan to take quantum effects into account to further understand the properties of the material.

Instead of having to track all the movements of every particle in the disk using complicated computer models (so - called N - body simulations), the disk can be treated as a kind of smooth sheet that evolves over time and oscillates like a drumskin.

These simulations get more demanding and expensive as the temperature of the fluid increases: An evaporated fluid has to be treated as a compressible gas, and, heated further, the gas becomes ionized, becoming a «plasma» of positively and negatively charged particles that interact collectively via electric and magnetic fields.

If all elementary particles are treated as strings, a consistent quantum theory emerges that accounts for all four fundamental forces.

Wang and Julienne build their theory of 3 - body van der Waals physics around the Schrödinger equation, the equation introduced by Erwin Schrödinger in the 1920s to treat particles as waves.

Until now, atomic clocks have treated each atom as a separate quantum particle, and interactions among the atoms posed measurement problems.

Berkeley Lab researchers have won two grants from the DOE and NCI that focus on particle beam - based therapies for treating cancer as well as on building faster, more powerful lasers for accelerators.

These particles evaporate so slowly that they are best treated as semisolid and non-volatile.

In order to accurately model the behavior of the accretion disk that orbits our galaxy's supermassive black hole, the researchers used a method that tracked the motion and path of individual particles — rather than one that treats the motion of plasma as a macroscopic fluid.

The most important of these simplifications is that the air is treated as a fluid and not an enormous collection of individual particles.
