The Fate of our Planet?
Clifford at cosmic variance addresses a fundamental question about the need(?) to populate other planets, versus exploring? Clifford: And it would be nice if we did the exploration primarily out of curiosity and wonder, and not out of fear for our future But of course, as with any thread there is a diversion of thought,…

Scott Ellsworth Forbush:Opportune Times for Experimentation?
Forbush Decrease Scott E. Forbush discovered the surprising inverse relationship between solar activity and cosmic rays There is some confusion still on my part as I wanted to understand the relationship between high energy particle and the conditions for which particle collisions would provide for secondary particle creations. See: How Particles Came to be? This…

Writing Your Story of Creation?
“No container is available, and the vaporization must occur in vacuum.” Wozniak With all that energy concentrated in a space about the size of an atomic nucleus, the colliding ions, for a tiny fraction of a second, will reach a temperature one hundred thousand times hotter than the core of the sun – hot enough…

Instead of the Pea, What New Paradigm?
Omega=? Imagine for one moment that this is all wrapped in a bubble(universe). Our views of earth, the hills and valleys, of the gravitational perspective, as I showed of earth as “time variable measure” now brought to conceptual realization for society. Einstein’s playful example of the hotstove, remember? The picture you refer belongs to ISCAP…

Intuitively Compelling
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 Jewish, and the meaning he might have had for God(Old ONe) had a perspective about…

What Comes Next?
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 strings can give rise to the matter and natural laws we know, they won’t have…

Quantum Mechanics: Determinism at Planck Scale
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 between classical and quantum mechanics. Can harmonic oscillators serve as a bridge between quantum mechanics…

Strangelets Do Not Exist?
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 of black holesby Adam D. Helfer Black holes are extreme manifestations of general relativity, so…

Have we seen (strange) quark matter?
Well the very idea that such a thing could exist, has been part of the evolving information I had been going through. To be lead to the understanding, of what new Physics would emerge fromm cosmological and collidial events. That there are indeed showers of particles with which such events will let us know cannot…

All Particles of the Standard Model and Beyond
Polchinski Elected Member Of National Academy of Sciences Polchinski’s discovery of D-branes and their properties is, according to the Academy citation, “one of the most important insights in 30 years of work on string theory.” Can I tell a little story before I head into the essence of this posted thread below? From one mechanic…
