Quantum Hall Effect

Posted on September 7, 2006 by PlatoHagel

This article below was set in motion by Stefan’s article,”Pencils, Black Holes, and the Klein Paradox”, at Backreaction. B will have to offer her perspective on the blackhole analogy. I offer mine.:) The fractional quantum Hall effect continues to be … Continue reading →

At What "Point" does the Universe Make itself Known?

Posted on August 12, 2006 by PlatoHagel

According to the basic laws of physics, every wavelength of electromagnetic radiation corresponds to a specific amount of energy. The NIST/ILL team determined the value for energy in the Einstein equation, E = mc2, by carefully measuring the wavelength of … Continue reading →

Clifford and The Singularity

Posted on July 25, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Horatiu is referring to a mathematical similarity between the physics of the real world, which govern RHIC collisions, and the physics that scientists use to describe a theoretical, “imaginary” black hole in a hypothetical world with a different number of … 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 →

Types of Blogging Software

Posted on June 5, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Ask yourself this? What is the new kernel to be, if we had for one moment presented the opportunities for the using Riemann hypothesis, and contained the very idea as a philosophy presented within this blog? A VIEW OF MATHEMATICS … Continue reading →

Building our Illusions?

Posted on May 15, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Back to Fractal Neurodyamics and Quantum Chaos Part 1 10 ConclusionThe importance of developing a model of brain function which gives a consistent description of mind, consciousness and free-will, is profound. The model described links the structural instability of brain … Continue reading →

Intuitively Compelling

Posted on May 10, 2006 by PlatoHagel

While it does appear that Einstein has indeed given us a paradigm which was indeed world-changing and affected everyone, how well might he have known himself? He was “driven,” as to the” focus and outcome” of GR’s growth? Yet, being … Continue reading →

What Comes Next?

Posted on May 6, 2006 by PlatoHagel

What Lies Beneath, by Eugene Samuel Likewise, if the very fabric of the Universe is in a quantum-critical state, then the “stuff” that underlies reality is totally irrelevant-it could be anything, says Laughlin. Even if the string theorists show that … Continue reading →

Quantum Mechanics: Determinism at Planck Scale

Posted on April 6, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Perhaps Quantum Gravity can be Handled by thoroughly reconsidering Quantum Mechanics itself?– Gerard t’ Hooft Albert Einstein used harmonic oscillators to understand specific heats of solids and found that energy levels are quantized. This formed one of the key bridges … Continue reading →

Looking for the Kernel of Truth

Posted on March 10, 2006 by PlatoHagel
