Beyond the Known Geometry
We begin with the curve of spacetime And the movement of the smallest things One describes the gravity that shapes the cosmos One describes the uncertainty within matter And somewhere between them The question remains From the geometry of Einstein To the waves of the quantum world From the light that crosses the ancient universe…

Calorimeter Label Analysis
Socrates: Yes. This link gives us a useful clarification of “Calorimeters” as a label within the Builder’s developing grammar. The important point is that the article does not use calorimeter in a conventional experimental sense as its central subject. Rather, Calorimeters appears as the categorical label attached to an investigation involving Fermi gamma-ray observations, photons,…

Gravitational Waves, as Quantum Flunctuations
“According to modern understanding, even if all matter could be removed from a volume, it would still not be “empty” due to vacuum fluctuations, dark energy, transiting gamma- and cosmic rays, neutrinos, along with other phenomena in quantum physics. In modern particle physics, the vacuum state is considered as the ground state of matter.” See:…

Slac-All Access
Three hundred and fifty miles overhead, the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope silently glides through space. From this serene vantage point, the satellite’s instruments watch the fiercest processes in the universe unfold. Pulsars spin up to 700 times a second, sweeping powerful beams of gamma-ray light through the cosmos. The hyperactive cores of distant galaxies spew…

Astrophysical Signals for Quantum Gravity Signals
Logo for the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Credit: NASA/Sonoma State University/Aurore Simonnet NASA’s newest observatory, the Gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope, or GLAST, has begun its mission of exploring the universe in high-energy gamma rays. The spacecraft and its revolutionary instruments passed their orbital checkout with flying colors. NASA announced August 26 that GLAST has…

When You Look at the Cosmos……?
Scientists have turned up rare evidence that space-time is smooth as Einstein predicted, while pushing closer to a complete theory of gravity. From NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope. See: SpaceRip.com …..you might be enamored with how you might see the cosmos as I am. The question of continuity of expression…

The Bolshoi simulation
A virtual world? The more complex the data base the more accurate one’s simulation is achieved. The point is though that you have to capture scientific processes through calorimeter examinations just as you do in the LHC. So these backdrops are processes in identifying particle examinations as they approach earth or are produced on earth.…

Measurement of the neutrino velocity with the OPERA detector
Scanning results tau decays New results from OPERA on neutrino propertieslive from Main Amphitheatre. “This result comes as a complete surprise,” said OPERA spokesperson, Antonio Ereditato of the University of Bern. “After many months of studies and cross checks we have not found any instrumental effect that could explain the result of the measurement. While…
