Models Change Perceptions

Posted on April 22, 2006 by PlatoHagel

“When the student is ready the Teacher appears“ Who said it first? Our attempt to justify our beliefs logically by giving reasons results in the “regress of reasons.” Since any reason can be further challenged, the regress of reasons threatens … Continue reading →

What a Good String Theorist Should Know?

Posted on April 22, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Arthur MillerEinstein and Schrödinger never fully accepted the highly abstract nature of Heisenberg’s quantum mechanics, says Miller. They agreed with Galileo’s assertion that “the book of nature is written in mathematics”, but they also realized the power of using visual … 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 →

Strangelets Do Not Exist?

Posted on April 5, 2006 by PlatoHagel

I tried to follow the history as best I could, and the resulting worries earlier linked in extra links seen below, attest to the research that I followed. Can we safely say now, that strangelets do not exist? Quantum character … Continue reading →

Nodes and Anti-nodes

Posted on April 3, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Tool’s for measure. The center of the gyroscope is a jewel-like sphere of fused quartz. These spheres, the size of Ping-Pong balls, are the roundest objects ever made by man. The tiny spheres are enclosed inside a housing chamber to … Continue reading →
