- Theoretical Physics: Whats the Point How Is It Accurate?
Theoretical physics is about developing conceptions or models about Nature and various observed physical phenomena Theoretical physics goes hand-in-hand with experimental and applied physics
- I cant find a PhD in theoretical physics after 6 months of trying
Hi, I am 25 years old living in EU I am posting my experience with the objective of getting advice or opinions I have a bachelor in physics with a thesis on the SM electroweak sector I have a master again in theoretical physics with a specialization on Hadron Physics ( QFT ) Both of my
- Theoretical vs Experimental physics
The discussion centers on the distinctions between theoretical and experimental physicists, highlighting their differing skill sets and roles Experimental physicists primarily conduct experiments, analyze data, and often require engineering knowledge, while theoretical physicists focus on developing models and theories
- Maths vs Physics degree for theoretical physics
1st year Maths with Physics at Cambridge and then continuing with the mathematical Tripos and taking theoretical physics courses The Oxford maths course doesn't have a lot of physics (in comparison to Cambridge's) and the Oxford Physics course has less mathematics than the Cambridge Physics via NST course (not by much though)
- What Are the Sub-Fields of Theoretical Physics? - Physics Forums
The discussion centers on the journey of an undergraduate student transitioning to graduate school, focusing on the choice between experimental and theoretical physics, with a clear preference for theoretical work, particularly computational physics The student seeks to understand the various sub-fields within theoretical physics, expressing interest in condensed matter and high-energy
- How risky is doing a PhD in theoretical Physics?
Hello everyone! Apologies if this question has been asked and answered before, please feel free to direct me to that post and delete this one, if needed and if it has been asked before and this post is, hence, redundant I looked up some of the earlier posts such as
- Difference Between Theoretical and Mathematical Physics
The discussion clarifies the distinction between theoretical physics and mathematical physics, highlighting that mathematical physicists often focus on the mathematical structures arising in physical theories without necessarily considering their physical implications In contrast, theoretical physicists prioritize predicting and explaining physical phenomena, often requiring a closer
- Any tips for doing a PhD in theoretical physics?
Hello, I am a second-year Data Science and Physics major at Northeastern University (My school has combined majors that are like double majors but cut a few classes out of each major) I am also considering switching to Math and Physics (I've linked the requirements for each major if it's
