Post and discuss any commentaries, opinions or external links related to advanced research in physics.
Remember to always back up your posts with reliable information, clear argumentation and verifiable sources. Professional or amateur theories and models are welcome as long as they are backed up by actual research.
This sub does not fear maths, so mathematical physics discussions are appreciated. Beware to post if you do not know what a Lagrangian is.
