Enrico Fermi had to cajole his friend Ettore Majorana into publishing his big idea: a modification of the Dirac equation that would have profound ramifications for particle physics. Shortly ...

Dr Soon said that there are moments in physics or mathematics that have no connection to the real world, but they still turn ...

Dirac materials, named after the Dirac equation which describes the behavior of relativistic electrons, exhibit linear dispersion relations near these Dirac points, where the conduction and valence ...

The British physicist Paul Dirac started the ball rolling in the late 1920s with his equation describing how relativistic electrons – and with it most other matter particles – behave.
