Computational Dilemma

Posted on September 14, 2012 by PlatoHagel

Riemannian Geometry, also known as elliptical geometry, is the geometry of the surface of a sphere. It replaces Euclid’s Parallel Postulate with, “Through any point in the plane, there exists no line parallel to a given line.” A line in … Continue reading →

Different Approaches to a 5d world

Posted on February 3, 2010 by PlatoHagel

Smolin: And there are published predictions for observable Planck scale deviations from energy momentum relations[22, 23] that imply predictions for experiments in progress such as AUGER and GLAST. [B]For those whose interest is more towards formal speculations concerning supersymmetry and … Continue reading →

Cosmic ray spallation

Posted on December 20, 2006 by PlatoHagel

As this NASA chart indicates, 70 percent or more of the universe consists of dark energy, about which we know next to nothing Other explanations of dark energy, called “quintessence,” originate from theoretical high-energy physics. In addition to baryons, photons, … Continue reading →

Graviton in a Can?

Posted on November 12, 2006 by PlatoHagel

After you consume “graviton in a can,” you might never be the same? Brane thinking may then dominate your every view of the world. Then, it will all make sense? Imagine while we peer deeper into the subject of the … Continue reading →

George Gabriel Stokes

Posted on October 12, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Sir George Gabriel Stokes, 1st Baronet (13 August 1819–1 February 1903) was an Irish mathematician and physicist, who at Cambridge made important contributions to fluid dynamics (including the Navier-Stokes equations), optics, and mathematical physics (including Stokes’ theorem). He was secretary, … Continue reading →

Emergence: A Point in Spacetime

Posted on July 28, 2006 by PlatoHagel

We used to think that if we knew one, we knew two, because one and one are two. We are finding out that we must learn a great deal more about ‘and’.” – Sir Arthur Eddington (1882-1944) Foundational perspectives are … Continue reading →

Clifford and The Singularity

Posted on July 25, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Horatiu is referring to a mathematical similarity between the physics of the real world, which govern RHIC collisions, and the physics that scientists use to describe a theoretical, “imaginary” black hole in a hypothetical world with a different number of … Continue reading →

Star Lite Public Outreach

Posted on July 16, 2006 by PlatoHagel

In regards to the QGP(Quark Gluon Plasma) I thought such a creation important from the ideas of what happens in assessing any beginning? <a href="http://qd.typepad.com/5/2005/03/public_service_.html&quot; target=_blank title="Public Service Announcement: Black Holes @ RHIC-March 17 2005-Peter Steinberg”> This thought arose from … Continue reading →

Pattern Recognition

Posted on May 22, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Strominger: That was the problem we had to solve. In order to count microstates, you need a microscopic theory. Boltzmann had one–the theory of molecules. We needed a microscopic theory for black holes that had to have three characteristics: One, … Continue reading →

Coleman-De Luccia instanton

Posted on March 22, 2006 by PlatoHagel

IN what way could some consistent measure be thought of, that such conditions while recognized in the false vacuum, and, with conditions of high energy considerations, be realized into useful information surrounding this move to the true vacuum? It would … Continue reading →
