A scientific biography of John Ward, who was responsible for the Ward Identity in quantum electrodynamics; the first detailed calculation of the quantum entanglement of two photons in electron-positron annihilation with Maurice Pryce; the…

Steven Weinberg productive scientific life teaches us many things, one of the most important of which is the power of his example. This essay contains personal reminiscences and a speculation about gravitational wave propagation based on…

This chapter outlines some of the challenges and opportunities associated with adopting provenance principles and standards in a variety of disciplines, including data publication and reuse, and information sciences.

An outline of recent work on complex networks is given from the point of view of a physicist. Motivation, achievements and goals are discussed with some of the typical applications from a wide range of academic fields. An introduction to…

This is my article on Tate's work for the second volume in the book series on the Abel Prize winners. True to the epigraph, I have attempted to explain it in the context of the "great reformulation".

The disruption caused by the pandemic has called into question industrial norms and created an opportunity to reimagine the future of work. We discuss how this period of opportunity may be leveraged to bring about a future in which the…

We discuss some aspects of Extrapolation theory. The presentation includes many examples and open problems.

This is a short overview of the influence of mathematicians and their ideas on the creative contribution of Mikhailo Lomonosov on the occasion of the tercentenary of his birth.

An overview of the current data and phenomenology on the structure of the photon and an outline of some opportunities available in the medium term future.

A pedagogical account of entropy and its history.

In three articles published in CNJ in 2012 and 2016 , we discussed some links between mathematical sciences, coin minting and numismatics. This article is a continuation of this cycle. It tells the story of selected important developments…

I describe aspects of my life in physics: the name I publish under, great physicists I have known, how I got into quantum foundations, what role I've played in it. My form is autobiographical, but my personal experience may illustrate what…

This is a draft version of an invited article for a forthcoming book `The genesis of Langlands Program', eds. Julia Mueller and Freydoon Shahidi, which will be published in the London Mathematics Society Lecture Notes Series. It gives a…

This is part of an unpublished work in collaboration with Ralph Kenna. It was probably not mature enough at the time it was submitted more than ten years ago and it was rejected by the editors, but some of the ideas had later been published…

This paper briefly discusses some questions with analytical and topological aspects, with hopefully some useful references on both sides.

John Barton was one of the experimental founders of particle astrophysics, working in deep underground locations all over the world. This note combines the obituary published in The Independent with a complete list of his publications.

This year is the 100th birth anniversary of Richard Philips Feynman. This article commemorates his scientific contributions and lasting legacy.

This article follows the scientific life of John Norris Bahcall, including his tenacious pursuit of the solar neutrino problem, his contributions to our understanding of galaxies, quasars, and their emissions, and his leadership of and…

This article is a collected information from some books and papers, and in most cases the original sentences is reserved about twin prime conjecture.
