Unreferenced date December 2009 Chemical physics is a subdiscipline of chemistry and physics that investigates physicochemical phenomena using techniques from atomic, molecular, and optical physics atomic and molecular physics and condensed matter physics it is the branch of physics that studies chemical processes from the point of view of physics. While at the interface of physics and chemistry , chemical physics is distinct from physical chemistry in that it focuses more on the characteristic elements and theories of physics. Meanwhile, physical chemistry studies the physical nature of chemistry. Nonetheless, the distinction between the two fields is vague, and workers often practice in each field during the course of their research. What chemical physicists do Chemical physicists commonly probe the structure and dynamics mechanics dynamics of ions , free radical s, polymers , cluster chemistry clusters , and molecule s. Areas of study include the quantum mechanical behavior of chemical reaction s, the process of solvation , inter and intra molecular energy flow, and single entities such as quantum dots .

In science , the term physics envy is used to criticize a tendency perceived or real of softer sciences and liberal art s to try to obtain mathematical expressions of their fundamental concepts, as an attempt to move them closer to harder sciences, particularly physics . The success of physics to mathematicize itself, particularly since Isaac Newton s Principia Mathematica Newton Principia Mathematica , is generally considered as remarkable and often disproportionate compared to other areas of inquiry. ref For example, Eugene Wigner remarked The miracle of the appropriateness of the language of mathematics for the formulation of the laws of physics is a wonderful gift which we neither understand nor deserve. , while Richard Feynman said To those who do not know mathematics it is difficult to get across a real feeling as to the beauty, the deepest beauty, of nature ... If you want to learn about nature, to appreciate nature, it is necessary to understand the language that she speaks in. ref Physics envy thus essentially refers to the envy perceived or real of scholars in other disciplines for the mathematical precision of fundamental concepts obtained by physicists.
