Sentence examples for macroscopic phenomena in from inspiring English sources

Combinatorial explosion renders any attempt of explaining emergent macroscopic phenomena in terms of microscopic low-level phenomena useless and futile.

There is a sense in which contemporary physics, with its account of the properties of atoms and molecules in terms of their electron structure and the explanation of many macroscopic phenomena in terms of the atomic and molecular structures underlying them, comes close to the ideal of Democritus.

A general rule of thumb in perusing the diverse recent literature on emergence is that emergence encompasses whatever striking macroscopic phenomena the theorist in question is interested in.

The concept of complex systems was developed in the physical sciences to explain the emergence of macroscopic phenomena from the interactions of large numbers of microscopic components.

Indeed, the story goes, in the late nineteenth century any attempt at all to search for a hypothetical, microphysical underpinning of macroscopic phenomena was regarded as suspicious.
