Result of Effective Changes in the Cosmos

Posted on November 18, 2006 by PlatoHagel

“There comes a time when the mind takes a higher plane of knowledge but can never prove how it got there. All great discoveries have involved such a leap. The important thing is not to stop questioning.” Albert Einstein (1879- … Continue reading →

Graviton in a Can?

Posted on November 12, 2006 by PlatoHagel

After you consume “graviton in a can,” you might never be the same? Brane thinking may then dominate your every view of the world. Then, it will all make sense? Imagine while we peer deeper into the subject of the … Continue reading →

Lisa Randall on Xtra Dimensions

Posted on November 10, 2006 by PlatoHagel

In physics, Randall-Sundrum models imagine that the real world is a higher-dimensional Universe described by warped geometry. More concretely, our Universe is a five-dimensional anti de Sitter space and the elementary particles except for the graviton are localized on a … Continue reading →

Back to the Beginning of Time

Posted on November 4, 2006 by PlatoHagel

While some of us who had been engaged in a little prehistory examination of earliest QGP states as glast determination of high energy photons, the question, “to Be or not to be,” how could we not ask what Professor Susskind … Continue reading →

The Higg’s Boson and Memory?

Posted on October 29, 2006 by PlatoHagel

While some like chocolate bars and the bubble nature of candy, some also like the molasses and ice cream? :) If Plato Had thought “the new born” was not really such a “blank slate” then what did he mean exactly? … Continue reading →

The Radius of the Little Circle

Posted on October 23, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Where a dictionary proceeds in a circular manner, defining a word by reference to another, the basic concepts of mathematics are infinitely closer to an indecomposable element”, a kind of elementary particle” of thought with a minimal amount of ambiguity … Continue reading →

The History of "Star Shine to Now"

Posted on October 21, 2006 by PlatoHagel

In “The String Saga of Star Shine” I gave a distant measure of how we might seen any event from that time to now. But before I begin I wanted to link Lubos’s mention of article from David G to … Continue reading →

The Continuing Saga?

Posted on October 19, 2006 by PlatoHagel

It was Socrates’ turn to look puzzled. Oh, wake up. You know what chaos is. Simple deterministic dynamics leading to irregular, random-looking behavior. Butterfly effect. That stuff. Of course, I know that, Socrates said in irritation. No, it was the … Continue reading →

Part of Facing the Trouble With Physics

Posted on October 16, 2006 by PlatoHagel

It might be that the laws change absolutely with time; that gravity for instance varies with time and that this inverse square law has a strength which depends on how long it is since the beginning of time. In other … Continue reading →

"Lead by Physics," Faces the "Trouble With Physics"

Posted on October 15, 2006 by PlatoHagel

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory is a world-class scientific research facility that began operation in 2000, following 10 years of development and construction. Hundreds of physicists from around the world use RHIC to study what … Continue reading →
