Donald Coxeter: The Man Who Saved Geometry

Posted on September 11, 2006 by PlatoHagel

“I’m a Platonist — a follower of Plato — who believes that one didn’t invent these sorts of things, that one discovers them. In a sense, all these mathematical facts are right there waiting to be discovered.”Harold Scott Macdonald (H. … Continue reading →

A Constant that Isn’t Constant?

Posted on August 30, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Now I am wrting this because some are persistent about the speed of light. I have looked at this and tried to accompany this thinking with actual work that has been put out there, and that has developed along these … Continue reading →

Numerical Relativity and Math Transference

Posted on August 27, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Part of the advantage of looking at computer animations is knowing that the basis of this vision that is being created, is based on computerized methods and codes, devised, to help us see what Einstein’s equations imply. Now that’s part … Continue reading →

Beyond Spacetime?

Posted on August 26, 2006 by PlatoHagel

As well as bringing the accelerator’s counter-rotating beams together, LHC insertion magnets also have to separate them after collision. This is the job of dedicated separators, and the US Brookhaven Laboratory is developing superconducting magnets for this purpose. Brookhaven is … Continue reading →

String Theory Landscape

Posted on August 2, 2006 by PlatoHagel

The theory of strings predicts that the universe might occupy one random “valley” out of a virtually infinite selection of valleys in a vast landscape of possibilities Quantum Effect, however allow a manifold to change state abruptly at some point-to … Continue reading →

Gold and Fool’s Gold

Posted on July 20, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Gold Perhaps the highest density known is reached in neutron star matter (see neutronium). The singularity at the centre of a black hole, according to general relativity, does not have any volume, so its density is undefined. The most dense … Continue reading →

Tomatoe Soup is Physical?

Posted on July 19, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Spacetime in String Theory, by Gary Horowitz Of course, one get’s to thnking about where all this theoretical stuff is taking us, and the result of such conclusions become interesting in having consumed the model assumptions? Having Grokked it? So … 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 →

Dimensional Referencing

Posted on July 1, 2006 by PlatoHagel

While the basis of the cosmic string lying in ruins in terms of verification that others went after, it does noes not in anyway reduce the impoirtance of how Andrey Kravtsov’s animation can be less in our assumption of the … Continue reading →

Continuing with the Foundation

Posted on June 27, 2006 by PlatoHagel

An important thing to remember is, a House Will Become the Home. There are many things that will go into our homes? In the dream world, this home, will become the backdrop for all the things you will measure in … Continue reading →
