Physics energy are no longer valid. The two chief theories of modern physics present a different picture of the concepts of space, time, and matter from that presented by classical physics. Classical mechanics approximates nature as continuous, while quantum theory is concerned with the discrete nature of many phenomena at the atomic and subatomic level and with the complementary aspects of particles and waves in the description of such phenomena. The theory of relativity is concerned with the description of phenomena that take place in a frame of reference that is in motion with respect to an observer; the special theory
Ugo Fano Fano spent 1936–37 with Werner Heisenberg in Leipzig. In 1939, he married Camilla Lattes, also known as "Lilla", a teacher who would collaborate with him in a well-known book on atomic and molecular physics, "Physics of Atoms and Molecules" (1959). Appendix III of this book presents an elementary description of the collision of two charged particles, which was used by Richard Feynman in lectures that have been published as "". An expanded version of this book was subsequently published as "Basic Physics of Atoms and Molecules" (1972). Later that year, he immigrated to the United States due to increasing antisemitic
