Researchers have used a calcium ion to simulate a relativistic quantum particle, demonstrating a phenomenon that has not been directly observable so far: the Zitterbewegung.

Particle-In-Cell (PIC) Simulation: A computational approach that tracks macroparticles and their interactions with electromagnetic fields to model plasma behaviour in a self‐consistent manner.

The classic quantum mechanics problem is a particle in a 1-D box. Here is a numerical solution to that problem.

Energy Levels for a Particle in a Box One of the fundamental aspects of physics is the study of light and how that interacts with matter.

Scientists in Silicon Valley and Germany have kicked off a five-year project to create a particle accelerator that's the size of a shoebox -- a project that, if successful, could revolutionize ...

The advent of computer-aided simulations has provided researchers with particle-based methods such as moving particle simulation (MPS) which is a valuable tool for independent deformation analysis ...
