The application of group theory to physics became one of the main branches of physics that I specialized in.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When I was a college student at Yale, I was studying physics and mathematics and was absolutely intent on becoming a theoretical physicist.
Physics has a history of synthesizing many phenomena into a few theories.
The methods of theoretical physics should be applicable to all those branches of thought in which the essential features are expressible with numbers.
Ever since I was a kid, I've had an enormous interest in the sciences - everything from quantum physics to anthropology.
As a boy, it was clear that my inclinations were toward the physical sciences. Mathematics, mechanics, and chemistry were among the fields that gave me a special satisfaction.
In 1948 I entered the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, undecided between studies of chemistry and physics, but my first year convinced me that physics was more interesting to me.
I was always good at math and science and physics.
Medical physics is an applied area of physics.
I got into physics through pop science and quantum science and ended up being such a quantum groupie.
The Theory of Groups is a branch of mathematics in which one does something to something and then compares the result with the result obtained from doing the same thing to something else, or something else to the same thing.
