Perhaps the greatest theoretical achievement of physics in the 19th century was the discovery of electromagnetic waves. ... It is possible to use this to define a unit of electric charge, as the charge which repels a similar charge at a distance of, say, 1 meter, with a force of unit strength (actual formulas make this precise). ... But "field" originally only meant the force a magnet or an electric charge could expect at a point in space, if it were placed there. ...

An extra leap second has to be inserted at the end of 2008, so this is how you should count down on New Year's Eve to celebrate the start of the International Year of Astronomy according to Irish astronomers. The extra second is needed to bring the uniform measure of time used by physicists using atomic clocks back into nearly exact agreement with time as measured by the rotation of the Earth. ... There will be national and international events organized throughout the year to mark the occasion. ...
