• Has Speed of Light changed Recently?

    You have to remember I am not as well educated as the rest of the leaque connected at Peter Woit’s site. But how could one think anything less, then what perception can contribute, as less then what the educated mind might have thought of? If it did not have the scope enlisted by others in…

  • Xtra dimensions

    In the Beginning….. The field of cosmology has experienced an explosion of activity since the discovery of ripples in the energy of the primordial light of the big bang. Cosmology is the study of the origin, evolution, and fate of objects in the observable universe. These include galaxies like our Milky Way, a vast collection…

  • General Relativity

    I took GR because I thought Neil Turok was dreeeamy. Well I dunno? He certainly got me thinking about brane world collisions, along with steinhardt, that’s for sure. We are most certainly dealing with a cosmological placement here with General relativity, but has been extended, as we look at string/M theoretical successes. You had to…

  • What First principle was– was it the geometry

    I thought I would contrast this quote of Dirac’s with the one of Feynman’s. You see the very idea of a constancy that spread through all Maxwell’s equations was a necessary one which allowed Einstein to move into positive and negative valuations within the geometries? So did Dirac know how this was to be approached?…

  • Charlatan’s Who Use Graviton?

    Are Gravity people Charlatan’s?:)I certainly don’t think so.:) well this is a good perspective with which one could move forward and explain it for us lay people here? :) Lubos Motl: The graviton is, on the contrary, an example of a correct derivation from semiclassical gravity – a legitimate approximate unification of GR and QM.…

  • Oh My God Particle-Revisited

    I just wanted to drop this link here for now. The animation shows schematically the behavior of the gas molecules in the presence of a gravitational field. We can see in this figure that the concentration of molecules at the bottom of the vessel is higher than the one at the top of the vessel,…

  • Principal of Least Action

    Edwin F. Taylor The least-action principle is an assertion about the nature of motion that provides an alternative approach to mechanics completely independent of Newton’s laws. Not only does the least-action principle offer a means of formulating classical mechanics that is more flexible and powerful than Newtonian mechanics, [but also] variations on the least-action principle…

  • Gott Time?

    Okay Clifford, enough’s enough. Some of like to be genuine and eloquent in our speech as well. So I’ll try my best. You had to understand that without this inductive/deductive topological sense, this would not help one to identify what Greene is saying. You had to know what this represent in our valuations of time…

  • Onion Signatures

    Yes indeed, we seen where acoustic physics can be related at a fundamental level and be incorporated with the mathematics that some are very proficient at. That while poor ole me struggles, I look for the most direct route to help me comprehend these complex issues which physicists and theoretcians alike, engage themselves, then why…

  • Parallel lines to spherical and hyperbolic functions

    Like different musical instruments, different types of stars produce different types of sound waves. Small stars produce a sound with a higher pitch than bigger stars, just like the ‘piccolo’ produces a higher sound than the cello Did one ever figure out the value of the pitch? So you see, the universe is a concert…

  • Inverse Square Law, Sound

    Acoustic Physics Of course you must remember, that I was influence by the Triangle man, and the idea of sound valuation in the determinatins of how we see differently. While complex math is the desired result of all the efforts of physics explanatory developement, there are ways in analogistc senses, that we may compare the…
