Question: Are Blackholes Connected by Dark Matter?
Fermi observations of dwarf galaxies provide new insights on dark matter. See Also: Fermi Observations of Dwarf Galaxies Provide New Insights on Dark Matter No one knows what dark matter is, but it constitutes 80 percent of the matter in our universe. By studying numerous dwarf galaxies — satellite systems that orbit our own Milky…

Virtual Photons Become Real in a Vacuum
Virtual Photons Become Real in a Vacuum Virtual Photons Become Real in a Vacuum The zero-point energy stored in the modes of an electromagnetic cavity has experimentally detectable effects, giving rise to an attractive interaction between the opposite walls, the static Casimir effect. A dynamical version of this effect was predicted to occur when the…

What Will AMS-02 Reveal?
23% of the matter/energy balance of the universe is the form of dark matter, mysterious type of particles 6 times more abundant than normal matter which shape gravitationally all galaxies and dominates the evolution of the visible universe.Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer One would always be curious as to what motivations help to drive the expansionary process…

Cosmic Particle Creation
The husks of exploded stars produce some of the fastest particles in the cosmos. New findings by NASA’s Fermi show that two supernova remnants accelerate protons to near the speed of light. The protons interact with nearby interstellar gas clouds, which then emit gamma rays. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center See:Fermi Proves Supernova Remnants…

Loop Production on the Sun
On July 19, 2012, an eruption occurred on the sun that produced a moderately powerful solar flare and a dazzling magnetic display known as coronal rain. Hot plasma in the corona cooled and condensed along strong magnetic fields in the region. Magnetic fields, are invisible, but the charged plasma is forced to move along the…

Nightlights from Coast of Eastern US
ISS030-E-078095 (6 Feb. 2012) — One of the Expedition 30 crew members aboard the International Space Station took this nighttime photograph of much of the eastern (Atlantic) coast of the United States. Large metropolitan areas and other easily recognizable sites from the Virginia/Maryland/Washington, D.C. area spanning almost to Rhode Island are visible in the scene.…

Consciousness Research and Michael Persinger
Michael A. Persinger (born June 26, 1945) is a cognitive neuroscience researcher and university professor with over 200 peer-reviewed publications. He has worked at Laurentian University, located in Sudbury, Ontario, since 1971. He is primarily notable for his experimental work in the field of neurotheology, work which has been increasingly criticized in recent years.[1][2][3][4][5][6] Persinger…

History Displays Newton’s Optics and Organic Chemistry?
The Errors & Animadversions of Honest Isaac Newton by Sheldon Lee Glashow ABSTRACT: Isaac Newton was my childhood hero. Along with Albert Einstein, he one of the greatest scientists ever, but Newton was no saint. He used his position to defame his competitors and rarely credited his colleagues.His arguments were sometimes false and contrived, his…

The Physics of Organic Chemistry
Download a Power Point Presentation about Hera (3.3 MB) It is a hasty entry this morning so by all means this information will not be complete. Familiarity with using spectrographic processes helps to align the thinking needed in the overview of dealing with the processes of organic chemistry. By no means do I have a…
