While working engineers were designing hardware for production, a large controversy erupted regarding the validity of Kirchhoff’s law. The controversy sprang up when Mehdi Sadadhgar posted this ...
A research team at Penn State has reported a significant violation of Kirchhoff’s law of thermal radiation, a principle that has been a foundation of thermal physics for 165 years. Their findings ...
A research team from Penn State has broken a 165-year-old law of thermal radiation with unprecedented strength, setting the stage for more efficient energy harvesting, heat transfer and infrared ...
Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...
Kirchhoff's current law has been rewritten thanks to a three-port transistor laser developed at the University of Illinois, US. While the laws of physics weren't made to be broken, sometimes they need ...
As engineers, we engage many laws: Ohm’s law, Kirchhoff’s law, and the law of gravity, to name just a few. But there’s another less rigorous law that I find also applies to many engineering designs ...
