*''mathematical physics'' -- which is it?  Physics is observed, while math is entirely abstract.<ref>The ''Encyclopedia Britannica'' defines it as the "[b]ranch of mathematical analysis that emphasizes tools and techniques of particular use to physicists and engineers." [http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/660160/mathematical-physics] One example given is how the Ising model can be used to explain the existence of the [[Curie point]], the temperature above which ferromagnetic materials lose magnetic properties.</ref>
