First Stars Behind the Scene
There are several recognized processes from the early universe that leave relic effects setting the stage for galaxy formation and evolution. We deal here with the first generarion of stars, primordial nucleosynthesis, the epoch of recombination, and the thermal history of various cosmic backgrounds. Part of understanding the time line is first knowing where the…

Cosmic ray spallation
As this NASA chart indicates, 70 percent or more of the universe consists of dark energy, about which we know next to nothing Other explanations of dark energy, called “quintessence,” originate from theoretical high-energy physics. In addition to baryons, photons, neutrinos, and cold dark matter, quintessence posits a fifth kind of matter (hence the name),…

Back to the Beginning of Time
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 offered up for examination under the title, “the elephant and the event horizon?” What happens…

Window on the Universe
Michio Kaku: I like to compare it to wandering in the desert, and stumbling over a tiny pebble. When we push away the sand, we find that this “pebble” is actually the tip of a gargantuan pyramid. After years of excavation, we find wondrous hieroglyphics, strange tunnels and secret passageways. Every time we think we…

What is the False Vacuum?
Quantum Field Theory Quantum Vacuum: In classical physics, empty space is called the vacuum. The classical vacuum is utterly featureless. However, in quantum theory, the vacuum is a much more complex entity. The uncertainty principle allows virtual particles (each corresponding to a quantum field) continually materialize out of the vacuum, propagate for a short time…

Singularities must be Rewritten?
From Dr. Kip Thorne, Caltech 01 On Relativity-Plate 24 I have given examples why the singularities have to be rewritten. I explain the value of the KK Tower as well. As well, it’s relationship to curvature of the universe. Following through that discussion I hope I reveal the thinkng that has been garnered through my…

Early Universe Formation
An Energy of Empty Space? Einstein was the first person to realize that empty space is not nothingness. Space has amazing properties, many of which are just beginning to be understood. The first property of space that Einstein discovered is that more space can actually come into existence. Einstein’s gravity theory makes a second prediction:…

Carl Jung’s Symbolical Nature?
The mandala can also be an image of eternity cycling through time and as such images soul’s and Nature’s circular journeys, as they are reflected in, for example, the Native American Medicine Wheel, in seasonal, rebirth and karmic cycles, in mythic journeys of going out and returning changed to one’s point of origin, and in…

December 15th, 2005 at 2:35 pm Tony Smith: As to the time of Feynman soving the QED problem, in 1941 (according to Mehra’s Feynman biography The Beat of a Different Drum (Oxford 1994)) Feynman had the inspiration from Dirac’s paper of using the Lagrangian method, which led to Feynman’s 1942 Ph.D. thesis. As to that…

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…
