n. (obsolete spelling of property English)

Usage examples of "propertie".

Although it would be hard to explain the properties of a tornado in terms of the physics of electrons and quarks, I see this as a matter of calculational impasse, not an indicator of the need for new physical laws.

The theory contained configurations of vibrating string that had properties akin to those of gluons, substantiating its early claim of being a theory of the strong force.

And so, it might seem reasonable to guess that wave properties, such as interference patterns, can arise from a particle picture of light provided a huge number of photons, the particles of light, are involved.

The corresponding particle types across the three families have identical properties except for their mass, which grows larger in each successive family.

We will see that if string theory is correct, the fabric of our universe has properties that would likely have dazzled even Einstein.

Without hoopla or fanfare, a patent clerk from Bern, Switzerland, had completely overturned the traditional notions of space and time and replaced them with a new conception whose properties fly in the face of everything we are familiar with from common experience.

These are such basic and intuitive properties of how the world works that we hardly take note of them.

In the precise way delineated by Einstein, special relativity resolves the conflict between our intuition about motion and the properties of light, but there is a price: individuals who are moving with respect to each other will not agree on their observations of either space or time.

Einstein went on to show that other physical properties of the world are unexpectedly interwoven as well.

And just as special relativity and general relativity require dramatic changes in our worldview when things are moving very quickly or when they are very massive, quantum mechanics reveals that the universe has equally if not more startling properties when examined on atomic and subatomic distance scales.

The double-slit experiment shows that light manifests the interference properties of waves.

Under the leadership of Niels Bohr in Copenhagen, for example, substantial progress was made in explaining the properties of light emitted by glowing-hot hydrogen atoms.

By closely examining the basic properties of general relativity and quantum mechanics, we can identify what that something is.

An illustration of its precision can be found in the work of Toichiro Kinoshita, a particle physicist from Cornell University, who has, over the last 30 years, painstakingly used quantum electrodynamics to calculate certain detailed properties of electrons.

Gabriele Veneziano was struggling to make sense of various experimentally observed properties of the strong nuclear force.
