Classical Physics
   
This applet shows how much enerygy the Sun brings to various parts of our solar system.

Brownian Motion! Need I say more?

The superposition of waves can be demostrated with the help of music synthesis. See how waves add and what the results sound like.

Modern Physics
   

The discovery of the correct formula for blackbody radiation played a key role in the formulation of modern physics.

Coupled logistic maps are an excellent paradigm for spatiall extended chaos.

NOTE: the parameters for the GCM are not set properly right now.
Spatially coupled logistic maps display fascinating behaviour. Despite the difference in the underlying mathematical model, the dynamics are often identical to those of the coupled logistic lattice.
