science-nanoscale-physics - 1.14.5 main

This metapackage will install Debian Science packages related to
Nanoscale Physics, which corresponds to the study of physical systems
typically ranging from 1 to 100 nm in size. The properties of such
systems usually depend on the number of atoms they are made of, while
this number is still relatively large for an accurate description.
.
The nanoscale is the meeting point of classical and quantum physics.
Previous research efforts were considering either smaller systems, for
which everybody could develop their own methods and software
independently, or much bigger systems, for which it was clearly
impossible to provide a fine-grained description. Addressing the issues
raised by the nanoscale requires however cooperative and coordinated
efforts in a multidisciplinary context. This metapackage is part of
such an endeavor.

your focus, in the physics and education-physics metapackages.
