Back to the Beginning of Time

Posted on November 4, 2006 by PlatoHagel

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 … Continue reading →

What is the False Vacuum?

Posted on July 29, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Quantum Field Theory Quantum Vacuum: In classical physics, empty space is called the vacuum. The classical vacuum is utterly featureless. However, in quantum theory, the vacuum is a much more complex entity. The uncertainty principle allows virtual particles (each corresponding … Continue reading →

GRand Quantum Conjecture

Posted on July 13, 2006 by PlatoHagel

My continued looked into the “fluids dynamics” had me wonder about the superfluid anomalies. How would the “sphere look” if it collapsed and allowed information to travel through it, based on what has been given here for perspective, when the … Continue reading →

Big Bang:One Man’s Change of Heart

Posted on February 15, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Thanks Paul One definitely needs some perspective around this and how such information is given. I refer here for consideration, about perspective, and how it can be exploited for further consideration on what is emitted, and what manifests in weak … Continue reading →

Hyperspace

Posted on January 24, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Science is that human activity in which we aim to show towards nature that respect that in a democracy we endeavor to show towards each other.” There is no doubt my views are biased. For all the wrong reasons I … Continue reading →

Laying the Foundation with Respect

Posted on November 15, 2005 by PlatoHagel

It is most certain that at this point the public would have been left behind, so is there a way to bring perspective at this point on where you are now? I recognize the generalization and roads that lead to … 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 →

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 →

Pierre Auger Observatory

Posted on April 9, 2005 by PlatoHagel

In his excellent paper, Louis LePrince-Ringuet, citing a remark of Powell’s at the Conference of Bagneres-de-Bigorre in 1953, declared that from that date on, particle accelerators took the place of cosmic rays, which more or less faded into the background. … Continue reading →

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 →
