This category includes sites about the basic laws of nature, such as the laws of motion, electromagnetism and atomic interactions.
Webpages that focus more on mathematics as it applies to physics should be placed in the Mathematical Physics subcategory. Webpages that focus on the interdisciplinary topic of combining physics, chemistry, thermodynamics and quantum mechanics should be placed in Physical Chemistry Submit sites about the study of the nature of space and astral bodies in Astrophysics. But, webpages that offer general statistics and data about the universe should be submitted to Astronomy. |
"Physics is the study and application of the fundamental laws of nature, including the laws of motion, gravity, electromagnetism, heat, and microscopic interactions. These laws govern the behavior of objects at all scales, from the smallest subatomic particles to the entire observable universe. In between, physicists study nuclear reactions, the interactions of atoms with light, properties of solids, chaotic dynamics of fluids, and the evolution of stars and galaxies, among many other applications."
If this doesn't tickle your fancy, there is always the quote from Rutherford: "In science, there is only physics; all the rest is stamp collecting."
Physics departments and/or physics research facilities from around the world.
Non main-stream.
Associations, societies, etc.
Collection of scientific sites dedicated to the advancement of our understanding of the universe.

Please submit only once, and only to this category if your site is dedicated to Physics in general. Thanks! |
This category is for sites for chatrooms and online discussion forums that are dedicated to physics in general.Note that discussions dedicated to specific topics in Physics should go under the topical category in question.
Non-quantum and non-relativistic physics. Study of motion of "bodies" - physical objects. Concepts involved: force, velocity, acceleration, etc.
| Sites should contain information on the use of computers to analyze physics research. Sites pertaining to education or demonstrations should be sent to Physics:Software, and site pertaining to computers without reference to physics should be sent to Computers |
This category lists sites pertaining to the use of computer simulations of physical systems and numerical methods for solving physics equations.
Most of everyday matter: solids, liquids, even gases.
| Conferences, meetings, workshops, summer schools and other events. Please do not submit the homepage of your institute, but the homepage of the Conference. |
Physics Conferences Homepages providing Conference Announcements, Schedules, Application forms etc. This category also covers Physics meetings, workshops, summer schools and other events.
This category contains sites related to cosmology which utilize the theories of general relativity, quantum mechanics, or higher dimensional models.Sites on observational cosmology are to be sent to Astronomy/Cosmology
The Crystallography is a misleading term. Diamonds and relatives are on the peripheries of the crystallographer field of interest. Probably the better name would be the "structural chemistry" or even the "structural biology". How the basic structures of living, rapidly changing world are connected with something as static as crystals? If one want to know 3-D structures of biological molecules - one need to crystalize them, then to put them into the X-ray beam and to interpret the obtained diffraction pattern.For simplicity alternative techniques of structural biology, for example NMR, neutron and electron crystallography are also included here.
A place for sites which have gathered together many links related to physics, usually in a useful or unique way.

Science/Physics/Education is for EDUCATIONAL web sites of interest to educators, parents, students and professionals emphasizing the teaching or learning of various aspects of physics or physical science. The best sites will try to teach or instruct about physics or physical science, though clear, easy-to-follow explanations of topics are useful as well.
There are both a Science/Chemistry/Education and a Science/Biology/Education category here at ODP, and they may be more appropriate for some site submissions. This category is not for software or selling of products. more information (editors only) |

|
Please submit only websites that are mainly based upon the subject of nuclear physics. They must have recent information and be of good if not great quality. more information (editors only) |
Sites and links concerning the science of nuclear physics. Different specialties are separated into their divisions.
Physics of light.
Particle physics, often called High Energy Physics (HEP) deals with the smallest building blocks of everything around us - subatomic elementary particles.
It is not about particles you could see under a microscope (e.g. dust particles) and it is not about chemical molecules.
The World Wide Web was invented by particle physicists at CERN.
|
This category is a listing of personal webpages related to physics. This includes webpages of physicists, physics students, or people who have a strong interest in physics (and it shows on the website). Sites relating to a specific topic should be sent to the category for that topic.
Sites listed in this category will have the name of the physicist as the title. Sites which seem to have a bit of physics content and a lot of non-physics stuff should go to Society/People/Personal_Homepages |
Sites listed in this category will have the name of the physicist as the title.
Plasma, called also the fourth state of matter (the other three are solid, liquid, and gas), is mixture of ionized atoms (atoms stripped of some or all of their electrons) and surrounding electrons.

Classical mechanics generalized (extended) to realm of high velocities (special relativity), and strong gravitational fields (general relativity). In particular, the theory that time and space form a single 'spacetime' which is curved in the presence of energy and mass.

Rheology is an interdisciplinary field which draws on
mathematics and differential geometry, chemistry, thermodynamics, polymer science and mechanics of continua.
It includes as special cases hydrodynamics and theory of
elasticity while studying more general cases of viscoelastic materials and of non-linear and complex fluids.
Derivation of the constitutive equation from the microscopic properties, the structure-property relationship of materials or 'structural rheology' generalises methods of statistical mechanics from study of N-particle systems to more complex ensembles, e.g. to three-dimensional networks of polymer chains to derive equations of rubber elasticity. |
Rheology is science of flow, of deformation of liquids and solids, and of the in-between viscoelastic materials, such as asphalt, glass, dough or plastics (polymers). The properties of the materials are described by the constitutive equation (rheological equation of state) which may an include other then mechanical quantities, such as magnetic or electrical fields. Constitutive equation describes the memory of materials, effects of thermal and stress history and effects such as hysteresis.
|
Sites should be focused on physics software which is either educational, used for demonstations, or tools of use in physics research. Sites related to computational physics or simulations of physical systems should be sent to Science/Physics/Computational/ more information (editors only) |

| Please submit sites related to either classical thermodynamics. Please submit Statistical Mechanics sites in the appropriate catagory, not here. |
Thermodynamics is the physics of energy, heat, work, entropy and the spontaneity of processes. It is closely related to statistical mechanics from which many thermodynamic relationships can be derived. Thermodynamics usually refers to equilibrium thermodynamics of quasistatic processes. Time-dependent thermodynamic processes are studied by non-equilibrium thermodynamics.
Includes sites on the specific properties of an environment where all of the matter has been evacuated (i.e. there would be nothing), as well as techniques and equipment for the attainment of such conditions in scientific investigations.
