Zapperz: I am not making a distinction between "instrumental data" and "data". TT: Ok, data means instrumental data for this discussion. What I mean by...
... and "data". ... I don't know. However, I certainly do not have any evidence that there's anything BEYOND what I have measured. Unlike you, I do not ...
Hi y'all, My first post to the group (if you don't count the times I accidentially replied to vexers)... I'm trying to picture SU(2) as a manifold. Well, ...
TT: I asked: Do you think of optical data as being a result of instrumental probes of a physical phenomenon that we collectively refer to as light (which is...

... Not sure. The physicists that I know (even if they don't ponder Bell's stuff or interpretations of qm) all think of, eg., radiation as being a physical...

Hi Lionel, ... If I'm not mistaken, the simplest picture of an SU(2) manifold is just a sphere whose opposite points are considered the same. This leads to...
... I must say that I'm somewhat baffled by your response(s). A qualitative understanding of the world (even quantitative physics) progresses via inference and...
... And I am baffled that you're baffled. Reread what you have posted. In EACH instance, you made up a set of rules (eg. a blind person in a house) in which...
OK, so it took a while, but hopefully our Vexers will be back on regular schedules (but don't count on it - I have major projects to be completed over the...
This is a straightforward physics question. A balloon (empty mass 0.001kg) is filled with Helium (density = 0.181 kg/m^3) giving the balloon a spherical form...

... Er.. I'm not sure what you think of me, but just because you disagree with me is NEVER a valid ground for kicking people out of this group. If everyone...
Hi tlt787 and all, I haven't followed all of this thread, but what I have read struck a chord with me. Tlt787, if I am understanding you correctly, it seems...
Hi Tom, Of course SU(2) and the three dimensional rotation group (SO(3)) are closely related, almost interchangeable, but I think it's technically the rotation...
Ooops, you are right, video. My mistake. Thanks for the correction. I'm clearly a little rusty. The manifold I described was indeed for SO(3) which is...
We have many members here from the UK, and especially living in and around London. Please let us know if you're OK. Our thoughts are with you... Zz....
Thanks. My family and i are ok. If you have internet you probably know as much as we do here in London. C.B. ... From: ZapperZ [mailto:zapperz2000@...] ...
Scott, I've read through messages 411 to 486 so far. Some insightful (at least, as far as I know) comments from all the regular contributors here -- reminding...

I'm not sure how this will go, but let's give it a try. You may have to do a bit of explaining.... By an irresistable cannonball we shall mean a cannonball...
As part of the ComPADRE Digital Library, the Nucleus is a resource for undergraduates in Physics and Astronomy. It has discussion forums, textbook reviews,...
This is a good, but long, paper. However, it has all the valuable summary of Einstein's work, and how they have an impact on our world today. It is especially...
