On the Methods of Theoretical Physics
Proceedings of the Physical Society of London, 1892When the editors of the catalogue of models (published in 1892 for the Association of German Mathematicians) asked me to write on this topic, I soon saw that little remains to be said that is new; so much solid comment on it has appeared just recently.

Undecidability and Intractability in Theoretical Physics
Physical Review Letters, 1985Physical Processes are reviewed as computations, and the difficulty of answering questions about them is characterized in terms of the difficulty of performing the corresponding computations. Cellular automata are used to provide explicit examples of various formally undecidable and computationally intractable problems.

Theoretical Physics and Mathematics
2018Following the method of Galileo, Theoretical Physics uses Mathematics as natural and essential language to describe reality. But even Galileo would probably be surprised by the degree of success of the mathematical description of the world. Simple elegant laws like the Planck radiation formula agree with reality accurately over all the electromagnetic ...

The Transition from Theoretical Physics into Theoretical Biology [PDF]
, 1972 The problem of our title is not usually considered as purely scientific, but as pertaining largely to philosophy and metaphysics. This means that the involvement of the scientist is partly emotional and partly rational. The need of the investigator to control or counteract his own, often unconscious tendencies is the most outstanding feature of our ...

Theoretical and physical aspects of nuclear shielding
1981This chapter is a review of the literature published between June 2013 and May 2014 on physical and theoretical aspects of nuclear magnetic shielding. Theoretical aspects include (a) general theory, for example, newly developed approaches in relativistic theory of nuclear shielding, the relation between the spin-rotation tensor and shielding in ...

Theoretical Concepts in Physics
2003A highly original, and truly novel, approach to theoretical reasoning in physics. This book illuminates the subject from the perspective of real physics as practised by research scientists. It is intended to be a supplement to the final years of an undergraduate course in physics and assumes that the reader has some grasp of university physics.

Creativity in Theoretical Physics
2015Creativity in theoretical physics is illustrated by breakthroughs ranging from the creation of the calculus by Newton to the invention of the neutrino by Pauli. The natural language of science is mathematics. Sometimes, physicists must expand this language, and usually, they take clues from it and its severe constraints.
