Want facts and want them fast? Our Maths in a minute series explores key mathematical concepts in just a few words.
Generating electricity without the use of fossil fuels is not just an engineering and industrial challenge, it is also a huge mathematical challenge.
In this podcast author Coralie Colmez shares insights into her novel The irrational diary of Clara Valentine.
We talk to early career mathematicians who spent some of their summer holiday solving problems posed by industry — such as how to blend a perfect smoothie!
Don't like plant-based meat alternatives, but want to spare animals and the environment? There's hope on the horizon, aided by a good helping of maths.
Inverse problems are mathematical detective problems. They can help solve crimes, are used in medical imaging, and much more.
We don't know, so we cannot answer the question, but at least we have asked the question! We have conceived of the possibility. If you state that there are or are not parallel universes what are you basing the statement on? It's like expecting the Montgolfier balloon to be as good as it will ever get. We have no idea what will be discovered next week, never mind over the next century. If there is another universe - even one - then it will require a joint effort of 16 dimensions - the basic four, four for the interface, for each universe. If there are three parallel universes, then the dimensions list gets a lot bigger. We have not yet discovered other dimensions, but we can acknowledge that they may be possible. Science is the way, the truth, and the light. It is is the only journey that we should travel. :)
