Robyn Williams: Einstein's top equations from 1905 included the most neglected, on Brownian motion. Mark Haw has been trying to gain recognition for the one that's always mentioned last. Mark Haw: ...

Brownian motion was one of the many things explained by Einstein. It’s the seemingly random ‘jiggling’ of particles caused by atoms hitting them. Under some circumstances, though, it’s not so random.

In 1827, botanist Robert Brown noticed that tiny pollen grains in water appear to move around, randomly jittering and jiggling. While the ultimate cause eluded him, the effect, Brownian motion, still ...

THE strange jittery dance that particles perform when immersed in water could be used to identify the best time to trade on the stock market. First noticed by Victorian scientist Robert Brown, ...

The seemingly random movement of Brownian motion just got a little more classical. Scientists have been able to image the ultrafast motions of a trapped particle, revealing the underlining ...

Even a little over 200 years ago, the world was very unlike what we are used to everyday now. Instant communication was inconceivable. Getting from one place to another was often a slow, laborious ...

First observed by botanist Robert Brown in 1827, Brownian Motion describes the continuous, chaotic movement of tiny particles, such as pollen grains, suspended in a medium. This motion results from ...
