Raychaudhuri Equation

Posted on March 30, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Is it sand running through our fingers, or a taffy like substance, in symbolic form? The difference, discretium and fluidity of nature, geometrically/topologically driven, are at war with what we might interpret in time? Early on, Salvador Dali understood well … Continue reading →

Emergence= Phase Transitions of Symmetry?

Posted on March 22, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Witten said: One thing I can tell you, though, is that most string theorist’s suspect that spacetime is a emergent Phenomena in the language of condensed matter physics. Part of the difficulty was realizing that the end result of a … Continue reading →

Timeline

Posted on February 16, 2005 by PlatoHagel

There are reasons for this theme, that I thought most appropriate to the discussion of illusion and miracles. In the thread previous to this one, a concept is put forward by Arkani-Hamed that focuses on the issue of the timeline … Continue reading →

What Pattern Emerges?

Posted on February 12, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Problem solvers have a way of getting to the heart of the issues, and unfortunately when ones engages competent minds like Peter Woit in the world? Whose sign post is,”anti-string with no explanation“? This is simple in the minds of … Continue reading →

Symmetry and Symmetry Breaking

Posted on February 4, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Harmonices Mundi <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johannes_Kepler&quot; target=_blank title="Harmonice Mundi (Latin: Harmony of the Worlds, 1619) is a book by Johannes Kepler. It attempts to explain proportions and geometry in planetary motions by relating them to musical scales and intervals. According to Kepler, … Continue reading →

KK: Kaluza Klein Theory

Posted on January 13, 2005 by PlatoHagel

What is it? KK Tower Now part of the problem of visualization here is what and how the cosmic string could have developed. Now, determination of the various sizing of these strings would have had to incorporate the value of … Continue reading →

THE ANTHROPIC PRINCIPLE

Posted on December 9, 2004 by PlatoHagel

The String Theory Landscape, by Raphael Bousso and Joseph Polchinski Given the success of replacing the gravitational force with the dynamics of space and time, why not seek a geometric explanation for the other forces of nature and even for … Continue reading →

Searching for Changes in the Fine-Structure Constant Using Atomic Clocks

Posted on November 27, 2004 by PlatoHagel

Another laser beam is used to make the atoms fluoresce, and the amount of fluorescence is measured as a function of the microwave frequency to plot a “resonance curve”. An ultra-precise measurement of time can be made by measuring the … Continue reading →

The Cosmic String

Posted on November 24, 2004 by PlatoHagel

It was important for me to recognize the microcosmic view, could have been united with cosmological proportions, and revealled structural integrity to the way in which the universe was formed. If such views were manifesting from planck Epoch realizations, then … Continue reading →
