• More on Quantum Biology

    If you push perspective into the area of quantum biology you will be very surprised.  QUANTUM CHLOROPHYLL: Sunlight triggers wave-like motion in green chlorophyll, embedded in a protein structure, …….. that guides its function. GREGORY ENGEL Early visions of wireless power actually were thought of by Nikola Tesla basically about 100 years ago. The thought…

  • The Map of B Mode Imprints

    Figure 3: Left: BICEP2 apodized E-mode and B-mode maps filtered to 50 < ℓ < 120. Right: The equivalent maps for the first of the lensed-ΛCDM+noise simulations. The color scale displays the E-mode scalar and B-mode pseudoscalar patterns while the lines display the equivalent magnitude and orientation of the linear polarization. Note that excess B-mode is detected over lensing+noise…

    Learn how the force of gravity influences the shapes of planets. Visit a gravity trap and learn about the ultimate gravity trap, a black hole. *** Schumann Resonances Earth’s Magnetic Field So one might look at the earth in an interesting way other then in a gravitational one. Lithospheric Magnetic Anomalies. A modeled image of…

  • Quantum Music

    Quantum: Music at the Frontier of Science – QNC Performance Published on Oct 19, 2012 The Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony and the Institute for Quantum Computing teamed up on Sept. 29, 2012, to present an innovative musical experiment called “Quantum: Music at the Frontier of Science.” The concert served as the the grand finale of the grand…

  • Which large LHC experiment are you?

    *** Studious, meticulous, and peculiarly-shaped, you are LHCb. As an introvert, you don’t mind hiding in forgotten corners of pseudo-rapidity that more “popular” experiments ignore. Although your asymmetric features and reserved nature mean you’re commonly mistaken for a fixed-target experiment, you are confident that your diligent, careful studies of CP violation will some day allow…

  • Memory, as the Glue of Society

    Our memories are our lives, and a fundamental basis of our culture. Collective memoirs of the past both bind society together and shape our potential future. With our brains we can travel through time and space, calling to mind places of significance, evoking images and emotions of past experiences. It’s no wonder, then, that we…

  • What is LROC?

    [NASA/GSFC/Arizona State University].LROC Northern Polar Mosaic (LNPM) The LROC team assembled 10,581 NAC images, collected over 4 years, into a spectacular northern polar mosaic. The LROC Northern Polar Mosaic (LNPM) is likely one of the world’s largest image mosaics in existence, or at least publicly available on the web, with over 680 gigapixels of valid…
