How do/did scientists, especially theoretical physicists, publish papers whenever they wanted to?

398 viewsOtherPhysics

is theoretical research different from regular research? like are they not required to get an institution (a uni or a research center) to back them?

i’ve also read similar things about papers in the field of math and i think chemistry too about historical figures publishing while working unrelated jobs

just because its theoretical does not mean it isnt based in science or testable hypothesis and other known/accepted theories/formulas/facts…..

yes a theoretic physasisst will likely work at a university lab; or a big multinational corporation or government agency. they will need to make proposials as to what they are researching, what they hope to find, and what outcomes they expect as well as what that might mean practically
