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 →

Building our Illusions?

Posted on May 15, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Back to Fractal Neurodyamics and Quantum Chaos Part 1 10 ConclusionThe importance of developing a model of brain function which gives a consistent description of mind, consciousness and free-will, is profound. The model described links the structural instability of brain … Continue reading →

How Particles Came to be?

Posted on May 10, 2006 by PlatoHagel

The First Few Microseconds, by Michael Riordan and Willaim A. Zajc For the past five years, hundreds of scientists have been using a powerful new atom smasher at Brookhaven National Laboratory on Long Island to mimic conditions that existed at … Continue reading →

Intuitively Compelling

Posted on May 10, 2006 by PlatoHagel

While it does appear that Einstein has indeed given us a paradigm which was indeed world-changing and affected everyone, how well might he have known himself? He was “driven,” as to the” focus and outcome” of GR’s growth? Yet, being … Continue reading →

What Comes Next?

Posted on May 6, 2006 by PlatoHagel

What Lies Beneath, by Eugene Samuel Likewise, if the very fabric of the Universe is in a quantum-critical state, then the “stuff” that underlies reality is totally irrelevant-it could be anything, says Laughlin. Even if the string theorists show that … Continue reading →

Comprehending New Physics?

Posted on April 27, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Scientists May Soon Have Evidence for Exotic Predictions of String Theory issued by Northeaster University “String theory and other possibilities can distort the relative numbers of ‘down’ and ‘up’ neutrinos,” said Jonathan Feng, associate professor in the Department of Physics … Continue reading →

Concepts of the Fifth Dimension

Posted on April 23, 2006 by PlatoHagel

“Yet I exist in the hope that these memoirs, in some manner, I know not how, may find their way to the minds of humanity in Some Dimensionality, and may stir up a race of rebels who shall refuse to … Continue reading →

Models Change Perceptions

Posted on April 22, 2006 by PlatoHagel

“When the student is ready the Teacher appears“ Who said it first? Our attempt to justify our beliefs logically by giving reasons results in the “regress of reasons.” Since any reason can be further challenged, the regress of reasons threatens … Continue reading →
