• The Cosmic Connection to Climate

    Cars and industrial activity contribute to the 7 gigatons of carbon dioxide released each year into the atmosphere.Credits: EuroNews Some thoughts about this were being contemplates as I was slowly awaking this morning. I was actually thinking of one more image about seeing Gr being measured by how Grace is looking at and being used…

  • Deja Vue?

    NewScientistSpace-How to be in two places at once The basis of this post is in answer to Bee’s question in relation to, “Back to the Beginning of Time.” Bee writes: interesting post. A question: what does it mean for the elephant to ‘be’ in more than one place. Or, what is there inside our space,…

  • Back to the Beginning of Time

    While some of us who had been engaged in a little prehistory examination of earliest QGP states as glast determination of high energy photons, the question, “to Be or not to be,” how could we not ask what Professor Susskind offered up for examination under the title, “the elephant and the event horizon?” What happens…

  • Doppelgänger Favors Oscillate

    “Observations always involve theory.”Edwin Hubble Of course I relate the “Ghost Particle to Pauli” here so that people would recognize the faint discerning image in “mirror world,” as some calculation that paved the way for some future spoken from Feynman’s point of view, to John Bahcall. Imagine what began as a theory/concept/idea, could have brought…

  • Allotropes and the Ray of Creation

    Just thinking here about “life” in general and dreaming. As well, this takes us back to the article from Backreaction. This post was generated in response to Q’s comment and my subsequent statements that I supplied in turn. Take “full note of Fermion” discription here, as well as, theoretical understanding implied. Just to note now…

  • Donald Coxeter: The Man Who Saved Geometry

    “I’m a Platonist — a follower of Plato — who believes that one didn’t invent these sorts of things, that one discovers them. In a sense, all these mathematical facts are right there waiting to be discovered.”Harold Scott Macdonald (H. S. M.) Coxeter Some would stop those from continuing on, and sharing the world behind…

  • Window on the Universe

    Michio Kaku: I like to compare it to wandering in the desert, and stumbling over a tiny pebble. When we push away the sand, we find that this “pebble” is actually the tip of a gargantuan pyramid. After years of excavation, we find wondrous hieroglyphics, strange tunnels and secret passageways. Every time we think we…

  • Quantum Hall Effect

    This article below was set in motion by Stefan’s article,”Pencils, Black Holes, and the Klein Paradox”, at Backreaction. B will have to offer her perspective on the blackhole analogy. I offer mine.:) The fractional quantum Hall effect continues to be influential in theories about topological order. It is interesting to see the interconnecting links of…

  • Epic Voyage-The LHC Journey

    Couldn’t help noticing Lubos’s recent article on his blog Frame of Reference, called, “Epic Vessel.” Now of course, if presented new opportunities to express ourselves. why does it have to be the way Lubos speaks, about vision being the sea of ignorance, and being limited only by our education? There is enough information out there…

  • Now, here is a SuperNova for Real

    The Crab Nebula from VLT Credit: FORS Team, 8.2-meter VLT, ESO Now the “ultimate proof” is to hold in our hands the matters defined by objects. This is the culmination of all dimensional perspectives, being “condensed to the moment” we hold the stardust samples in our hands. In that case, it may be of a…

  • A Constant that Isn’t Constant?

    Now I am wrting this because some are persistent about the speed of light. I have looked at this and tried to accompany this thinking with actual work that has been put out there, and that has developed along these lines. I will give a list of links and thiking that I had archived for…
