I suppose this has more to do with historical curiosity (I could be wrong). If you want to read about Euclid's Elements, a website at Clark University has been...
Hi all, I work in a steam power staion, and there is something that really puzzles me!! In the steam drum, which is a pressurized vessel contains water and...
Hi! My approach to this phenomena is that when it starts droping there is a decrease in pressure which makes it more likely for the evaporation and other...

This may be a pain to judge, but here goes.... Lightning strikes aircrafts very frequently, but it is very rare that there is any damange other than perhaps a...
Hi, I used silicon switching diode in foreword connection at different temperature. At 140 degrees the current shows up at heigher voltage than the voltage at...

I don't think so. Silicon diode can tolerate 200 degrees and I get this problem at 140 degrees. Notice that I did not move the diode from the oven, I change...
I hate to revive a dead horse, but it is relevant to a discussion that I've been having. While conventional physics accepts the fact that photons have zero ...
I would say that one of the marks of a good educator is the ability to guage the intelligence, level of sophistication, and (current) depth of knowledge of the...
Hi Zz, I'm not quite sure the best way to approach this issue, but it is a good question. I think my original thought experiment (with the "relativistic black...

Hey, thought you left this type of questions behind you when you left intro physics, didn't you? :) There are two cannons. One on the left is aimed 45 degrees...
Well as Gravity as I currently understand it is generated from the quarks spring interaction with each other (THIS MAY NOT be gravity, just a smaller...
Hi Q, I know at one point you mentioned you attened Quark Matter back a couple years ago (in Nantes?), so I know you have some connection to heavy ion physics...

As usual, work gets in the way (I'm organizing a workshop this coming July and so it is even more hectic than usual). So the answer to last week's vexer and a...
Hey all! (To the old & new folks) At the bottom of the editorial, 'participation in "inexpensive, small-scale, high-precision" experiments to study physics...
Hey booom0r, You mentioned that you are working on a small scale experiment to test beyond standard model physics. That's really cool. Which experiment are...
Hey Tom, I'm currently doing a high-precision measurement of the half-life and branching ratio of the superallowed beta decay of 10C. I'm based in Australasia...
Very cool. I believe some of my colleagues here at LBNL did some measurements on that for 10C back in 2001 using the gammasphere. Interesting stuff! As your...
