Uncover the surprising connection between Ramanujan's pi formulas and the universe. Learn how his century-old math helps ...

Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan’s formula for Pi can help with calculating black holes, studying percolation, or ...

While building a simpler model for particle interactions, scientists made a sleek new pi. Representations of pi help scientists use values close to real life without storing a million digits. The ...

Discover how Ramanujan's century-old pi formulas connect to modern cosmology and turbulent fluid physics in groundbreaking ...

Most of us first hear about the irrational number π (pi)—rounded off as 3.14, with an infinite number of decimal digits—in school, where we learn about its use in the context of a circle. More ...

Ramanujan's pi-computing machinery exactly mirrors the necessary structure in modern physical theories (LCFTs).

For the 30th anniversary of Pi Day, Google went there. It made a Pi-themed Google Doodle out of, yep you guess it, pie ingredients. Hilarious. SEE ALSO: Virginia Woolf gets a Google Doodle of her own ...

Math teacher Marcus Hung squinted in mock concentration. "3.1415," he said before pausing dramatically and then smiling. "That's about it." Reciting the digits of the irrational number pi is not his ...

A new study reveals that Srinivasa Ramanujan’s century-old formulas for calculating pi unexpectedly emerge within modern theories of critical phenomena, turbulence, and black holes. In school, many of ...
