Production of Gravitational Waves

Posted on September 29, 2007 by PlatoHagel

“My heart leaps up when I behold A rainbow in the sky.”William Wordsworth— My Heart Leaps Up This post is based on “the production” and not the detection of gravitational waves. It does serve it’s purpose, that I explain what … Continue reading →

Gravitational Wave Detectors are Best Described as "Sounds."

Posted on August 21, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Weber developed an experiment using a large suspended bar of aluminum, with a high resonant Q at a frequency of about 1 kH; the oscillation of the bar after it had been excited could be measured by a series of … Continue reading →

Great Circles

Posted on March 16, 2005 by PlatoHagel

You would think with this uncertainty, that I had answered my own question about what Peter Woit has done, in terms of offering some substantiative understanding for rejection of string theory. But it doesn’t. Sometimes we rely on the roads … Continue reading →

Seeing Beyond the Mass and Density?

Posted on January 15, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Fig.1: Generally Grouping Order increases the density of objects within a frame of reference, resulting in a more pronounced single object. To see beyond what we have taken for granted it is important that you understand how we got to … Continue reading →

Quantum Harmonic Oscillators

Posted on December 5, 2004 by PlatoHagel

If the basis of this thinking has not emerged out of GR then what value could we have assigned zero point vibration? If the scalable features of GR could not have followed some geometrical thinking, then the world that we … Continue reading →
