Mathematicians and Physicists Do is Perhaps Like Sculpture
“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.” Smolin then goes on to write something interesting here. Many would have interpreted the discusion between Peter Woit’s Blog and Lubos Motl’s Blog, that rebels exist, but something more…

Quantum Gravity
Here is one of two methods that help explain. The next post will follow tomorrow if I have time. The complexity of the pictures involved is linked down below in Fig 15-17. This will give some generalizations that I had been looking too, to comprehend the model of strings and its geometrical discriptions. Continuity Topology…

Is Line , Hook and Sinker, Dimensionally Leading to Soul Food?
Oskar Klein (left) proposed in the 1920s that hidden spatial dimensions might influence observed physics. He poses with physicists George Uhlenbeck (middle) and Samuel Goudsmit in 1926 at the University of Leiden, the Netherlands. AIP Emilio Segrè Visual Archives I think sometimes the road begun existed before many of our own perspectives were added for…

A Quantum-Mechanical Discription of Gravity
I do not know how much more generalized these views could have become from those who now look to what the physicists and theoreticians are doing in their questions for explaining the nature of the reality we are encountering. If few recognize it, then it is showing us strong signals of what is to come.…

2004 Promises to be an Exceptionally Exciting Year in General Relativity and Gravitation
But you shouldn’t imagine the mood as one of breathless anticipation. At least for the physicists present, a better description would be something like “skeptical curiosity”. None of them seemed to believe that Hawking could suddenly shed new light on a problem that has been attacked from many angles for several decades. One reason is…

5th Dimensional Field Equations
http://www.tech.port.ac.uk/staffweb/seahras/images/Kaluza.jpeg In 1919, Kaluza sent Albert Einstein a preprint — later published in 1921 — that considered the extension of general relativity to five dimensions. He assumed that the 5-dimensional field equations were simply the higher-dimensional version of the vacuum Einstein equation, and that all the metric components were independent of the fifth coordinate. The…
