from ojodelince

Frank Wilczek is a professor of Physics at MIT and has been awarded a Nobel Prize in the field of Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD), This places him at the cutting edge of modern theoretical physics. Nevertheless this book can be read and appreciated by anyone with a background in the physical scienc...

If I devoted the rest of my natural (and unnatural) life to study of quantum physics, I might be within an order of magnitude (one-tenth) of what Frank Wilczek has forgotten about it. A pioneer of quantum chromodynamics in the 1970s and winner of the 2004 Nobel Prize in Physics, Wilczek, in The L...

In 21st century physics, there is no such thing as truly empty space. What we envision as "empty" is a multiplicity of space-filling ethers or fields, where virtual particles pop in and out of existence. The theory of all that activity is called quantum chromodynamics, or QCD. Frank Wilczek, a No...
