The Total Field

Posted on September 24, 2005 by PlatoHagel

For me this title above strikes a cord somehow in the struggle and regard, leading in our comprehensions to the extension of the standard model. By bringing gravity into the picture and descibing the graviton teaming in the bulk of … Continue reading →

CFT and the Tomato Soup Can

Posted on September 15, 2005 by PlatoHagel

As always, the layman trying to develope the mathematical views?:) Greg Kuperberg on Sep 15th, 2005 at 12:11 pm Conformal maps of the Earth are a great introduction to complex analysis. If you identify the Earth with the Riemann sphere, … Continue reading →

Quantum Gravity: The Blackhole

Posted on September 7, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Drawing Plane and Coordinate Systems More information is given here in Wiki. There is no “distance” separating cosmological events, from the cubic centimeter in the corner of the room? I have to tell you why I see this, and what … Continue reading →

On the Hypothese at the foundations of Geometry

Posted on August 27, 2005 by PlatoHagel

I am trying to make my case on the greatest physics paper over at Cosmic Variance. One notices the slight misinterpretation I assigned, “geometical propensity to physics” that the case is more then just physi,s but the limmerack added envisioned, … Continue reading →

Space and Time: Einstein and Beyond

Posted on August 21, 2005 by PlatoHagel

You know it’s amazing sometimes when the question in mind being put out there is not really answered right away, yet, it is strange that you ask and sure enough the right paper seems to find you. Plato said:Can this … Continue reading →

Bridging the chasm between mathematics and human culture

Posted on August 7, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Thanks to Peter Woit for these kinds of links. As a lay person, to see this idea exemplified by such gatherings, closes the great divide. It is wonderful in a way, when one can see where these mathematics are really … Continue reading →

Dealing With a 5d World

Posted on July 31, 2005 by PlatoHagel

A black hole is an object so massive that even light cannot escape from it. This requires the idea of a gravitational mass for a photon, which then allows the calculation of an escape energy for an object of that … Continue reading →

History of Gravity and the Equivalence Principle

Posted on July 29, 2005 by PlatoHagel

History rerun on bar ringings? That’s it: the bar is in place. Our word gravity and its more precise derivative gravitation come from the Latin word gravitas, from gravis (heavy), which in turn comes from a still more ancient root … Continue reading →

How the Natural World has Been Painted

Posted on July 29, 2005 by PlatoHagel

While some are intrigued by EM waves, I have a fascination for GW and the way we can portrait the natural world, we do not see. The sounds of gravitional waves are probably too low for us to actually hear. … Continue reading →

Lee Smolin’s Case for Background Independence

Posted on July 27, 2005 by PlatoHagel

While we were privy to the debate between Susskind and Smolin in a previous post, the origins and definitions have been drawn from the deeper requirements of an ideology. Where do these begin, and we find the inner compulsion of … Continue reading →
