The last few years saw a meteoric rise in scientific content in social media. Many scientists and science enthusiasts have participated in this huge renascence. What started from YouTube a decade back has now transitioned into Instagram, X, TikTok, and more. However, science still seems behind, especially in underrepresented communities - like the one I am coming from. Misinformation,...
The next edition of your favorite event, ICPS 2025, will be held in beautiful Serbia! From August 3 to August 10, 2025, you will be our guest in lovely Novi Sad. We will guide you through our event's program, the opportunities it will provide for you, any answer any of your questions or doubts.
The International Conference of Physics Students (ICPS) is an annual conference bringing together...
Neutrons play a dominant role in the stellar nucleosynthesis of heavy elements. We review a scheme for the experimental determinations of neutron-induced reaction cross sections using a high-intensity neutron source based on the 18O(p,n)18F reaction with an 18O-water target at SARAF’s upcoming Phase II. The quasi-Maxwellian neutron spectrum with effective thermal energy kT ≈ 5 keV,...
Dissociative electron attachment (DEA) is a resonant process by which a low-energy electron attaches to a molecule, causing electronic excitation into a temporary negative-ion state, and inducing fragmentation into neutral and anionic species. Low energy electrons are present from ionizing radiation in the atmosphere and in many industrial products such as Lithium Ion Batteries (LIBs)[1]....
The aim of the presented study is to analyze the influence of solar radiation and atmospheric circulation on the occurrence of temperature anomalies in Warsaw.
The research will focus on understanding how these variables affect temperatures in Poland and examining the variability of anomalies as a result of global warming. The study is based on measurement data collected by the Radiation...
For ten days, a post-mining heap from the coal mine in Bytom was transformed into an analog space base. This place became a hub of scientific activity as young researchers from the Scientific Club of Geophysics at the University of Warsaw embarked on an innovative project to simulate Martian conditions. The mission, named RAF-Analog Space Mission, aimed to replicate space conditions, test...
Magnetostriction is one of the most important properties of ferromagnetic materials, as it couples magnetic and mechanical effects, therefore, mechanical stress is induced under the influence of a magnetic field. In our case, for instance, we put Ferrite rod in the alternating magnetic field that is produced by regular coil and observe its behavior changing frequency of the magnetic field. As...
Relativistic Taylor flow (Taylor-Couette flow) involves the study of fluid dynamics between two coaxial, rotating cylinders, where relativistic effects become significant due to high rotational speeds. In classical physics, Taylor flow describes the motion of a viscous fluid contained between two rotating cylinders. This classical setup is fundamental in understanding fluid stability and...
The talk will explore the application of X-ray fluorescence analysis to the investigation of archaeological samples of plaster and mortar from the ancient roman villages of Chhim and Jiyeh, Lebanon. The topic of statistical analysis of results (based on PCA and hierarchical analysis) and their interpretation will be discussed, i.e., how to translate differences in the chemical composition of...
Harmonic functions and harmonic forms are one of the most important objects of mathematical and theoretical physics. For example, they are widely used in field theory, determining the strength and induction of some electrostatic and magnetostatic fields. As a rule, harmonic functions are defined on multidimensional Euclidean and pseudo-Euclidean spaces. Due to the additional symmetries of the...
The importance of magnetic fields in modern physics is great, and mankind has known for a long time how a moving charge creates a magnetic field. That is, if we know the coordinates and velocities of charges moving in space or the current density at every point in space, then we can determine what the magnetic field induction is and where it is directed at any point.
The difficulty of...
Our goal is to find symmetries for surface majorana modes of 3D topological superconductors. In Topological superconductors there are some surface states that can only exist on the surface of the three dimensional topological bulk. To investigate surface states that are 2+1D chiral non-Hermitian Majorana fermions with complex energy dispersion we extend the case of 1+1D hermitian massless...
