Mersenne Prime: One < the Power of two

Posted on January 7, 2007 by PlatoHagel

It looks as though primes tend to concentrate in certain curves that swoop away to the northwest and southwest, like the curve marked by the blue arrow. (The numbers on that curve are of the form x(x+1) + 41, the … Continue reading →

First Stars Behind the Scene

Posted on December 28, 2006 by PlatoHagel

There are several recognized processes from the early universe that leave relic effects setting the stage for galaxy formation and evolution. We deal here with the first generarion of stars, primordial nucleosynthesis, the epoch of recombination, and the thermal history … Continue reading →
