I am very interested in pursuing graduate studies in the emerging field of plasmonics and metamaterials, I really love electrodynamics and EM propagation, and since I started doing a project on plasmonics and metamaterials, I knew that is what I wanted, what graduate schools in USA do you recommend me to apply to?. I am currently a first year Msc student in Russia.

I heard Duke has a pretty distinguished department for Metamaterials. If I'm not wrong, they recently created a cloaking device that bends microwaves, and it was featured in the NYT.

Below's the link to the department:

Thread 'Self Learning Math/Physics'

Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...

Thread 'What should I do if I found a paper with same result as mine?'

Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation. This article's date received is 2022-11-15...
