    The 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics is awarded to two climatologists and a theoretical physicist “for groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of complex physical systems”. Many of us would be surprised why two climatologists win the Nobel Prize in Physics. Here I present you my reading of the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics, by addressing the following aspects: why is the climate system is called a complex physical system? The global greenhouse warming in the past century and possible future warming. The physical basis and brief history of global greenhouse warming. What are the contributions of the two climatologists, based on physical principles, to modeling of Earth climate, quantifying climate variability, reliably predicting global warming, and detecting and attributing global warming to anthropogenic activity.

    The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded half of the 2021 Nobel Prize in

    physics to Giorgio Parisi for the discovery of the interplay of disorder and fluctuations in

    physical systems from atomic to planetary scales. This article briefly reviews Parisi’ s

    contribution to the spin glass theory and stochastic processes.

    Some physics concepts need to analyze in details in order to understand deeply.This paper analyzes the interesting problems in physics teaching by taking Einstein diffusion coefficient, the longitudinal wave component of electromagnetic wave with photon rest mass and the minimum volume of state as examples.

    Second quantization is an important topic in postgraduate and senior undergraduate level Quantum Mechanics course. A key step in the development of the second-quantization formalism is the derivation of one- and two-body operators from the many-particle Hamiltonian and wave functions in the firstquantization language, which is usually difficult to understand for beginners. Taking the case of an assembly of identical fermions as an example, this paper provides a less ad hoc and intuitive derivation based only on the symmetrization postulate, the concept of “filling the vacuum” in the Fock space, and equivalence between the antisymmetrized many-particle wave function and the Fock state.

    Under the gravitational action of the moon and the sun, the earth's solid surface also has periodic fluctuations similar to the sea surface, this phenomenon is called solid tide. The cause of formation of solid tide is the same as that of sea tide, but its calculation is much complicated more than that of the latter. In this paper, the Kelvin earth model and a relatively simple method are used to calculate the earth's surface equation and fluctuation amplitude, and the related problems are discussed.

    Moving particle in the one-dimensional infinite square potential well is a quantum ideal model.In the traditional textbooks,the boundary condition of the potential well is particularly taken.Either it is symmetric about the coordinate origin point,or the left boundary value of the well is at the origin of the coordinate.First,it is presented how to solve the energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for this model with the arbitrary boundary condition by virtue of the three kinds of approaches.Moreover,the results obtained by the different methods are equivalent to each other.Then the derived results are discussed and analyzed.Furthermore,the general formulas for solving the energy eigenvalues and eigenstates for the one-dimensional infinite square potential well with a arbitrary boundary are acquired.It is easy to see that the two physical quantities are dependent on the well width,and the eigenfunctions are related to the boundary value.Finally,the one-dimensional results are extended to two and threedimensional infinite square potential wells with the arbitrary boundaries.

    Gravity acceleration is an important mechanical constant in physics. There are many methods to measure the value of gravity acceleration, and the simple pendulum method is often used in university physics experiments. However, the experimental principle only studies the motion of the single pendulum ball and ignores the influence of the size of pendulum, buoyancy, cycloid mass and other factors, so the measurement results are not accurate enough. The relative accurate formula of gravity acceleration and the corresponding synthetic standard uncertainty formula are obtained by correcting the system error that caused in the measurement of gravity acceleration by the simple pendulum method. Finally, the measured data are analyzed and calculated reasonably, and the more accurate experimental results are obtained.

    There exists some shortcoming in traditional college physics teaching.In this paper BOPPPS model was applied to college physics with taking Doppler Effect as an example to design micro-class. In this teaching framework, learning initiative of students changed from passive acceptance to active inquiry. BOPPPS model effectively attracted students’ interest and improved learning efficiency. Furthermore, students could deeply understand and master abstract physical concepts, and apply relevant theoretical knowledge to engineering practice. It was a good reference for improving teaching and learning quality.

    Vacuum with pressure of several pascals is generated by a selfmade cylindrical tube. The emission spectra along the central axis of the tube of 65Pa air plasma and 14Pa air-CO2 plasma are observed, the strongest of which are recognized as the first and second positive system of N2. The vibration temperatures along the central axis are calculated using the relative intensity of the second positive system of N2.

    Based on the self-made “black box” experimental device, this paper verified the relationship between saturated photocurrent and light intensity by three methods: The first method is to study the volt-ampere characteristic curve under different light intensity by controlling the voltage of the phototube; The second one is to study the photoelectric characteristic curve of photocell by changing the distance between phototube and light source under the same light intensity; And the third one is that the relationship between photocurrent and light intensity can be directly measured by using light intensity sensor. The experimental data were collected and analyzed by PASCO platform in real time. When the saturation was not reached, the experimental results show that the photocurrent increased with the increase of light intensity.

    Aiming at the problem of small number of suspended particles and limited levitation space in the current three-dimensional acoustic operation technology, a design scheme of acoustic levitation device composed of three pairs of opposed transducer arrays is proposed. By changing the phase difference of the transducer array, the three-dimensional manipulation of particles is successfully realized. This device can be used to measure the speed of sound with a relative error generally about 2%~5%, and the measurement should carry out under a relatively strict environment.

    In view of high Reynolds number flow around a cylinder, the problem of how to put off a fire is carried out based on experimental research. It is showed that within a certain range, the flame extinction time is proportion to the obstacle diameter, the distance between candles and obstacles and the candles burning rate, and it is inversely proportional to the flow velocity of the obstacle. Through the analysis, it is found that the experimental data and the theoretical analysis are consistent, which indicate that the experiment conclusion is correct and the experimental method is feasible. Furthermore, it provides an important support for the indepth study of the flow around a cylinder, flame combustion problems and the relationship between them.

    While the cylindrical container is rotating around the central axis, the liquid contained in it is driven to rotate around the same axis at the same time. At a relatively stable state that the rotational speed of the liquid is nearly constant, a paraboloid can be formed on the surface of the liquid due to the combined action of gravity and the centrifugal force. Since the optical focal distance of the paraboloid is only related to the local acceleration of gravity and the rotate speed of the container, this equipment can be used to measure the g of the local place. What is more, the optical focal ability enables it to be used as the main reflector of a simple Newtonian-Focal-System telescope. And the lateral magnification of this telescope is also a property that can be measured.

    In Atwood’s machine, when both pulley and string have mass, the theoretical expressions of tension on both sides of the string and of acceleration of weight objects are derived using momentum theorem. The acceleration a(t) changing with time and the relationship between velocity v and moving distance h under different string weights are discussed.
